Nitrons. Why the change to steel, it may be heavier but also has a tendency to rust! Are they black titan/ chromium coated?

just had the CSL weighed full track prepped.

Popped int our local haulage company and they did it for free

Ok, so last year the car was 1440kg so guesses what it weighed (static) today!!!

Remember all the alterations are fully reversible
