…… to finish the car in time for ND, theirs a last minute change that requires a new part to be balanced & that meant ND was a no-go. Will now concentrate on getting the engine to the Dyno , now at least we wont to have to remove it from the car after the show.
With the Norris Designs Dyno down for a couple of weeks im now stress free as regards to completion of the engine, however im now concerned we wont make the Topspeed attempt that’s already booked as im also going on Holiday again. Why aint life easy.

shame that rod would love to see the car at nd but least you have not got to rush it now

 

Less stress = possible less mistakes

 

hardlines Rod mate

Good luck with it all anyways

 

 

Doing the job properly often means timelines expand a little

You do go on holiday far too often though

 

never mind rod enjoy your hoilday mate

 

Shame Rod, but not to worry. It will be finished soon and then you can break your own record

 

shame Rod.

 

Never mind Rod, you did try hard to get it done. Have a good hols ( I´m in Portugal now ) See you soon at MAD HQ no doubt.

billy wizz may lend a hand on the final stages

karl came over all day satday to get it running i was pullin my hair out cudnt get it runing on s8
he put his own l8 and did his thing pectel cum up with cam error so i switched ryan loom wires around and 2 turns of the key fired up at 4000 rpm for 20 mins

moral of the story never trust a s8 they loose memory after being stable for 12 months

 

sorry rod back to topic

 

No need to apologise to Rod, his car isnt going, yours might be, so yours is more interesting right now anyway, im positive Rod wont mind the hijack

off to powder coaters 1st thing then bed for 4 hrs back at it for 12 ish again

 

Hope you make it Brom, once I had decided it was impossible to make it , I chilled out & feel stress free, nice feeling.
