inaugural CS-22 car."  In addition to design input and fabrication of the
composite body, final assembly of the CS-22 car was accomplished at STW's
high-tech facility.

experience to the CS-22 project.  Clarinval notes his pleasure introducing
this new vehicle, "This is the beginning of a long dynasty of competitive cars
that we intend to bring to the racing market.  Our relationship with STW
