That sound suspiciously like one of Jamie Booths early TRF cars or a close copy of ? He did extensively modify an Egress, most notably with H-arm rear suspension instead of the trailing arms... and he also had 'TRF' milled into the chassis top-deck... But he quickly stopped using it as it wasnt that competitive.
Soon after that he used the modified Manta-Ray which used a carbon double-deck chassis. Basically the Top Force prototype. Jamies all had the red gearboxes if i remember though ?
I had heard recently he got his original Egress back, or had found it and brought it back again. Or wanted to find it. Or build a replica. Cant remember now
