Draadloosstroom should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
LeytonHouse CG912 became Lotus 107 ?

I was looking into the history of the LeytonHouse CG912 for my F1 project UnracedF1.

This is one of the cars that never managed to be build , only existed on the Drawning board , well i though it only existed on the Drawning board.
Since the LeytonHouse team didn't had any money left to develop the car they used the CG911 in 1992.

But i did read in some magazine that the Lotus 107 was actually the LeytonHouse C912, but that's the only reference i have for it.

Does any of you have more information about this ?
It would really help me.

I doubt it.

Chris Murphy designed the Leyton House / March CG 911 but left March in mid-1991 handing over to Gustav Brunner so it is unlikely that he had a hand in the design of the CG 921. But he did design the Lotus 107 (Source: David Hodges' A-Z of Grand Prix Cars). So, a family resemblance possibly but not the same design.
