Well the Original Whisper was that WPS would get 503 and 605 so FPR would be building 2 new cars any rate.

So it then comes down to are FPR running a customer car for FRSR, if so why not use the Oldest Car for them FRSR and build 2 new Chassis for 2008.

The Orion is another thing. Is it a confirmed Starter next year or not? If not then Putting 2 new cars together seems like the best move for FPR. Maybe the new shells will also have their updates from the Orion installed and ready to test and improve before they are put in the New car at the Start of 09.

I know 605 was being built (was shown in the Access All Areas Video) before Sandown last year so. . . you would have to think at least one of the new cars would be very close to completion by now?
