How many of the current teams actually manufacture the carbon fibre chassis
"tub" themselves, as opposed to contracting the work out, and how many of
the new teams have the capability to do this work themselves? Lola can do
the work but they didn't get an entry - would anybody else get Lola to build
a tub for them?

I've seen pictures of the autoclave in Charlotte. Big enough to hold
the tub and a bunch of othe stuff. Probably 2 tubs, if they have
enough people to lay them up at the same time.
