yellowss7 Posted October 8, 2008 Posted October 8, 2008 I met a friend for lunch today who has a Caterham SV. I made the mistake of sitting in it after lunch. It's way too comfortable!!!:ack: I had on big wide sneakers and could move my feet around in the pedal box!!! I like the way mine fits, like a glove. But WOW!!! the SV was REALLY Comfortable. Got to remember not to do that again. To all you Sumo Version owners... :cheers: Tom
Alaskossie Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 If you can fit into a non-SV Caterham, that is the best incentive in the world to diet, exercise, and stay that size!
southwind25 Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 Boy is THAT a familiar phrase.. everytime i/bob tell mary i would love some carbon fibre bits on the car... she reminds me about the cheapest way to take weight off it!
Al N. Posted October 9, 2008 Posted October 9, 2008 Tom, what Jon down in your area? Who's got an SV down there?
yellowss7 Posted October 9, 2008 Author Posted October 9, 2008 No Al, it wasn't Jon. I met this guy (Len) a few years ago. I was having lunch with some guys from a local Jaguar club, when Len pulls in to the parking lot with his 7. I went out and introduced myself, and I had a photo of my car so we talked for quite a bit. 2003 SV Zetec, BRG, 6 speed. He built it himself and he sourced his own zetec so had to build his own wiring loom as well. He uses it like Jon and Michael D. as an everyday driver. Nice guy, a toy inventor. His lastest is the Air Hogs Zero Gravity Micro. http://www.rcmania.com/air-hogs-zero-gravity-micro/ I've tried to get him on the site as he's pretty knowledgable about the zetec 7. Tom
twnpipe Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 http://www.rcmania.com/air-hogs-zero-gravity-micro/ didn't work for me, I think we took aprat an air hog and built a car with it, interested in story.

Didn't work for me either until I copied and pasted the link in my browser. Looks like a fun toy. Skip
RGTorque Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 come to the dark side tom! you know u want a full sized 7 also i have been seeing air hogs commercials on tv recently.
yellowss7 Posted October 10, 2008 Author Posted October 10, 2008 Actually, mine IS a full sized Caterham. It's those of you with the SUMO Versions that have gone outside of the standard. It looks like it will be a nice weekend for autoxing. Are you going? Tom
RGTorque Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 sorry, ive been missing some races. the last autox i was working. we had a big event (h20 international @ ocean downs in MD) and this past weekend was my sisters wedding. i will be making it out to the next event (boing i think) weather permitting.
