This Blog...

This web site is the story of how I built, drive and maintain my GBS Zero sports-car.

This blog is not a set of instructions, more a scrapbook of my decisions and experiences. Each each Zero build ends up subtly unique dependent on the builder's preferences, trade offs and decisions. That is part of the challenge!

My day job is behind a desk 9-5, I have some mechanical background, but no pretence at getting anything right first time - it is all a learning curve for me and plenty of learning the hard way... or should that be the interesting way?

The overriding theme is - learn and have a go.

Thank you to the reference sites and other builders for help along the way (see right hand column Reference & Links section).

If you find this site useful, interesting or have questions, please link to it or drop me a line and let me know.

Cheers.
