Really enjoyed the video and would love to see more.

Tuned's video did not really give the impression that it took so long with such dedication/money. Hat's off to you.

Would love to see that going up Lord March's drive at the Goodwood Festival of Speed with it being dedicated to Lotus this year.

I would echo George's post.

You obviously had a clear idea of what you wanted to achieve and have put a lot of passion and commitment into it (not to mention a fair bit of cash I would guess). It's fantastic to see what can be achieved with these wee plastic cars. But... I can imagine it would only be for a few people. It must take quite a bit of work to live with.

I'm sure you've had Mike pulling his hair out on quite a few occasions.

I think it looks awesome as well :D
