In 2002, Raw acquired the rights to the Striker and made a number of modifications and variations.
The car was a radical evolution from the Star and Leader models, dropping the Viva donor car in favour of purpose-built suspension and lighter bodywork.
The Striker was available in kit form, and could be built with a variety of engines, for example a Ford Crossflow, Ford Zetec, Toyota Twin-cam or even a motorcycle engine.
These cars have high power-to-weight ratios and are best enjoyed in the summer due to minimal weather protection.
The front suspension initially had outboard springs and shock absorbers, but with later versions, this was moved inboard with a rocker arm upper suspension arm.
