Hi Randy, no we were a bit later than than. Have two boys now 22 and 19 and we karted through the various classes from around age 8. Got fairly serious and spent our way pretty much to the pointy end. Boys were quick but we were only doing around 12-15 meetings per year, so they didn't have the seat time of say Mitch Evans or Tom Blomqvist, who were our top guys around that time. We didn't have the money or the connections to make the jump to single seaters and do it properly, so parked the gear up as the guys went through their crucial exams. Decided that a crazy track day car would be good family fun, hence the Group 5 E21 replica in current build.
The McCulloch looks great! Would be just nasty with pipes!
