Misc | This car was built by the factory's own development engineer, Ray Concar who used it in competition from new until 2003.
Ray spent many years perfecting this Eleven concentrating particularly on the chassis geometry, corner weights, bump steer and rear suspension operation. These developments provide a unique level of handling and roadholding and proved themselves on the circuit in the 80's and 90's when the car was raced in the 750 MC Championships.
On occasions Richard Jenvey also raced the car with success. The car also competed in sprints and hillclimbs up until 2003
The car features in the book "The Westfield Story" with pictures illustrating some of the suspension modifications to the Eleven and showing the car in action at Brands Hatch with Ray Concar at the wheel.
Peter Shaw of Goldstar Racing Developments purchased the car from Ray Concar in 2004 and entrusted the car to Coventry and Clarke of Basingstoke for total body refurbishment.
I acquired the Eleven in May 2006 and continued the project finally getting the car on the road in 2007.
