Default fpr factory - very impressed

I was lucky enough to go for a guided tour through the FPR workshops and fabrication areas last night, in one of three groups of about fifteen people. I must say that even though I had a fair idea of what I would see, I was suitably impressed anyway.

We missed by 5 minutes seeing Rob Benson giving his development mule engine a pounding in the dyno room which was a shame.

The only area we weren't allowed to be taken through was the electronic engineering and suspension r+d area as too many secrets could be viewed.

The tour was well run, so it is something they obviously do regularly and I would recommend anyone who has the opportunity to go takes advantage of it.
