The car is going on the track, we have 2 sesions booked,11am and 2pm. 2 weeks after Ford Fair it is entered for our first rally in the car so is going to be used as intended. The car will be on the Fast Ford Magazine stand if you are looking for it.

drivers brief is 11 am, tracktime is 12pm

Only need one briefing....it's easy to get confused if you just glance at the envelopes as the brief time is at the top.

Very nice! I spy active front and centre too

Have you'd the two stacked gems monitors build into one? That's neat but I do love the way ford stacked one above the other!

Edit, just noticed the two monitors on the tunnel
