Heikki's CMC-7

This is Build Diary for Lotus 7 Replica, based on CMC frame and 1996 Mazda Miata 1.8 parts.
Main purpose of this car will be at the track. According to original plans, it was supposed to be road legal so it would serve as occasional Sunday driver.
These photos are arranged in reversed chronological order, newest one comes first. Feel free to make comments on them.

Now there is room for spacers or thicker wheels. I should have loaner wheels for the next autocross with 40 mm offset, without spacers they would rub on springs and with spacers they require longer studs.
