hello guys 
new member here Smile
i want to make some structural assemblies from pre-preg cf and i wonder if easycomposites cf is strong enough , or is it just for show purpose / body panels use only ?
for example , when i compare resin properties to cycom 2020 which is used in formula 1 etc i see big difference , but the measurements were made on different systems (iso and astm)

i added the mechanical properties , so how those two can be compared ?
