MDCutting should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
That's the car we called Formula Toyota Super Cup. It's based on the F3 tub but with changes for safety (side head protection) and cost - e.g. the front suspension is a simpler setup and the pushrod doesn't pass through an aperture in the tub, instead it goes through a slot in the damper cover (hence crashing is less likely to damage the tub).

I don't think it was that bad for a composite chassis spec-formula car, bearing in mind we had to build 30 or so at a sensible price and no single seater with head protection at the time was especially pretty, even the expensive ones!

Having said all that I am more interested in the F3 cars and would certainly like to be reacquainted with one, and/or drawings from the time which I worked on.
