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

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.
