Thanks for your support guys and the effort you put in getting there!

It took me a few hours to dry out after parking up that clubstand area from 07:00 on Sunday morning.

Managed a few laps in the after noon in my seemingly slow 1.6 turbo, (compared to some of the machinery on track) hope I never got in too many peoples way!

But it was well worth the efforts for some of the feedback received.

Good to see you back on the scene Ian.

There was a few people surprised that I managed to get Dicey to sell me the car.

AG fabricated the roll cage mounts, rear strut brace and fitted the cage.

Raj @ Autoflock done the dash for me via the Group Buy on here.

But after being passed by those weapons yesterday as if I was standing still, maybe I should have got AG to fit a YB and Sierra tunnel while it was in!!!!

Well thats funny man cos its my Yellow/blue cossie and your more than welcome to cum up and find rot in the sills on it, the shell was brand new in 1998 and is totaly solid, seam welded and full cage thru bulkhead etc, only thing that lets it down is the doors n tailgate are fucked, fine as a track car tho, i was runnin a standard turbo and low boost on sunday as just done a bottom end rebuild the week before and only done 100 mile b4 knockhill so when the t35 bk on and runnin 30 psi of boost itl be fine, maybe see you on the track and wel see how it gets on mate
