Yeah, fibreglass makes sense if the weight is close to that of a carbon one.

Yeah, cut a hole in both sides of the chassis leg about an inch bigger. When its all together you can't really see it.

JAE 2013 was a good one for me (and everyone else by all accounts) winning these on the 4GUK stand.

Thanks again to all who voted for me, it very much appreciated.
