Tackitt

Prowess (GB)
Among the most startling Formula Ford designs of all time, the Prowess was designed by Hugo Spowers (Prowess is an anagram of his surname) and unveiled in October, 1986. Extremely low, the car featured a far-forward, lay-down driving position and an all but fully enclosed cockpit. Side radiators were located up front, alongside the inboard shocks/springs operated by pushrods. Regrettably, the car didn't go very well and volume production was never commenced."
