Supernova should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Hi Bryan,

Thanks for the information. I have been in touch with Rob in the past and he knew little about the marque (as do most people). As I dig more I am finding tidbits of information, some good and some conjecture. For instance just today I was browsing the OldRacingCars.com site and I noticed that the Mcrae GM1 F5000 car has almost exactly the same nose piece as the Tui F2 car and the Supernova F3 car. This makes sense because both were built by Len Terry's Leda cars. What is interesting is that the Supernova nose even looks as though the moulding is set up for a wider chord front wing like that which would be used in F5000. Maybe I will restore my Supernovea at some point!

Mike Short,
Austin Tx.
