I didn't think you could fit 6 pot AP's on 325mm rotors behind Simmons wheels? Don't the centres dish the wrong way or something like that?

 

I wonder if it's running spacers (I can't quite see)?

Fantastic car, not usually a fan of white, but with those gold wheels it looks a million bucks.

Go the sedans!!

Needless to say, this car is also seems to have some relation? But not being a local Kiwi, I've got no idea what the connection between the vehicles is.

It would seem that the owner of the white car was originally a sponsor of the grey one in the NZ CMC series. A hot lap in the grey car resulted in the need to build his own car!

I'd love to know what sort of lap time this car would set around the mountain.

The grey car and the white car were built by this crowd.
