Great pictures, Martin. Jim, I was thinking about that collision damage P4/5C sustained in the race. During the 3 hour pit time, was everything repaired completely or did you just repair it to the extent that the car was just able to finish there race? And was the damage to the wheel well from the blown left rear tyre repaired completely? I was just wondering if you'll have to do any additional repairs to the rear before P4/5C is fighting fit for future races or if she's pretty much good to go apart from usual set-up tweaks for the track in question. All the best, Andrew.

After any 24 she'll need a bit of work but repairing damage to a race car is a lot easier than to a streetcar and her damage is no big deal. Not yet sure when she'll be coming home as she may race again next year.
Sounds good! Why is a racecar easier to repair than a streetcar? Is that because of the lack of interior trim allowing you access? I'd love to see her race again. Fingers crossed that happens. All the best, Andrew.
The nose is one piece as is the tail. Removing them takes no time. We have complete spare front/rear units splitter/radiator/under tray/ diffuser that plug right in. Easy access helps a lot. Repairing CF is a lot easier than repairing alloy.
That's a great video--thanks for posting. When will the HotWheels be available? My son needs that to complete his set!
Hi Jim, Congratulations on the race, awesome videos also!! I sent you a PM a couple weeks ago (Maybe bad timing on my part). I am hoping you will see it. I look forward to hearing from you. Thanks, John Dixon
Either is fine but we're not giving out our aero data and if we race next year will change our aerodynamics a bit.
