THE SR6 on the market.

John Harwood has decided to move the Mark 6 on. He's spent a lot on it and made a beautiful car out of it. In the 7 years he has owned it he has raced it infrequently, even bringing it over to the Phillip Island Classic the year before last. I'll let John tell you what's been done to it.
