The pics of the chassis build were interesting--I saw that the measurements that were jotted down were in inches--don't they use metrics over there?? Is Andy Robinson from the US??

Andy Robinson is english born and bred. Believe it or not, we use both. Although the dictatorial EU is gradually changing everything to metric.
I've had engineering drawings with both, metric and imperial measurements on them. Lol
