I cant say anything jim, I posted some pics of me making some bit for my own car and the post got deleted and I got a warning so not chancing it.

Im fine though ta pal really looking forward to central day but its not looking good on the car front, still waiting on pistons and struggling to find the right ecu.

Have you dyno's your itb rs2000 engine yet?

An man that sucks, my bro has just posted up about his puma, and I've even asked a mod if it's ok to mention Harvey Gibbs in the post as he copied it direct from another forum. Sucks but there we go!

I'm at central day with the saff bud so make sure you get along

I havnt touched the 2k engine yet bud, got five weeks to have cossie finished so it's full steam ahead them in onto the escort

It looks like he's making a full chassis for it as the pic I saw in a mag as there isn't much metal left

there have been a few fb updates on the performance ford page, looks like he's doing the whole car in carbon and just leaving the bare shell as metal

thank you very much for that link, I have to say these lads have to be some of the best in the work at what they do, that miller is truly awsome and the car being built to one of the highest standards ive seen, reminds of the ag focus build many moons ago. Shame they dont come on here no more :-(
