As recently reported, I ripped everything out of the car the other week to paint the floor. I decided there was no point putting the stock dash back in the car. It is heavy (3.5kg left in mine) and now it has been cut up a few times it is downright ugly. I decided to build my own carbon fibre dash. I have wanted to since my mate Paul did one a few years ago. I built a plug out of bog and MDF. This is the sort of work I enjoy – building something from scratch. The main shape is a simple right angle, and I wanted to sit the RacePak up at eye level above the steering wheel. This necessitated some cutting, laminating, and sanding of multiple layers of MDF.
