Default A few pics from today : Rod's top speed feature








The Stack only 1mph out just the same as my one.


We did ask the TVR boys for a race however they declined the offer after watching Mark do half of Brunters completely sideways from a standing start.





Well Done again...fantastic achievement!

Thanks - Sunny.

Nice pics!

Only problem is now Rod has MORE to talk about when he's giving one of his guided tours round the vehicle at shows

So impressed

Thanks guys, getting used to my new camera still. Pics have been optimised for web.

Rod feels as if he's 6 foot tall now!

I think he needs to do it with the windscreen first then maybe when he builds up his confidence he might try it Steve. One step at a time hey.

Ranj and Neil are both responsable for the video's as I only done stills as you can see.

Ranj - Lemme know when you sort them out and I can upload them on my webspace dude.

Right....after 36hrs of continously on the move without going home and no sleep it's safe to say I am going to bed as my shift has finally finished.

Sunny.
