Chassis #007 and #008 are built for the 2008 season and will be ready in the event we need one for the 2007 season. If any further cars are sold they would be #003, #005 and/or #006.”

2007-11-23 – Email – “David:
YES we are running 007 and 008 (in 2008)”.

Built in February, 2007 and not raced until March, 2008. Hmmmm…..
