Wow, was gonna say that must shift, but looking at that shaft, I guess not all the time!

Kevlar rear bumper ripped off and dented, along with front bumper and a few more wounds to add to it.
Rear panel pushed back out just for now and some of my classic repairs

Last outing at Brands.
Struggled to heat up the tyres early on then checked I had 35psi in them so dropped 10psi out of them. Need a steep learning curve really to get this competitive again.

GT grippers front and back. Yes thats the only thing it hasnt got being an individual throttle bodied inlet it didnt comply to the race regs it used to race in. Quite a few of the rallycross boys are changing back to mis inlets. The mag MIS inlets produce more bhp whereas the tibuc make higher torque.

If you skip to around 3:20 of this video, you can see how fast this car can be, the way it accelerates away from Rod Birley's escort on the start was awesome to watch, shame the propshaft came undone and it didn't make it round 1 lap

Started to start to clean up the shell ready to go off to be painted. The inside had been painted with household paint so had to remove it and ended up taking the inside and engine bay back to bare metal
The engines gone off to Julian for a general check over and remap back onto 98 fuel.
