TOTB, YES , we really REALLY want to come there, but I will not go there unless I have got the car set up as needed for the different events.

Honestly, I don' like to loose =)

Therfore I won't attend it untill er got the car set up right and , and hence lack of spare time I doubt the car will be fully race ready for july, drivable yes, but not 100% race ready and as romours told me , the technical level at TOTB is pretty high(!!) so a well prepared package is needed to raise some eyebrows at that event?!

In addition we are a liiitle bit sceptic as how the drivetrain(altough modded with 31 spline twist axles, 4 plated carbon clutch, slip release bearing and reinforced diff housing) will handle the 1800-2000nm of torque we are going to give it, so a little testing is needed =)

Cheers
Joel
You will have a place reserved for next year then if you want to come .
