That the car is 3 months behind schedule so cancelled the ring trip to stay home and finish it? Is that classed as an issue?

No mate.
been up at Rob's @ SCC today, he and his guys are top chaps.
apart from the fact that the car decided to dump all its water outside Robs office window when i pulled up after limping it there, the plus side is it now ticks over happily and steadily on its own.
but the fooker still wont rev much past 3k or with any more than a mild touch of the throttle
back up there again first thing in the morn, if its not running perfectly by the end of tomorrow then ill be bailing out
