I'm a close follower of your build thread on m3e30.nl, great job! Wouldn't mind if you placed just a few photos here to give a general overview.

BTW did you set a deadline? Would love to see the car in action one day. But, I don't know how the rally scene is doing in Belgium but in Holland things aren't too good with legendary events being cancelled or made lots smaller... :(

Met up with Dirk from R-Box this morning (yeah it was early haha) and aim is to have the car ready early 2013. Would be good to see the car in action next season!

By the way thanks for the M3 steering rack!
