News travels not so fast, Yes its true i handed my notice in a few weeks ago, my last day was today.
I'm setting up on my own back down in Devon as there is a real lack of tuners down south, I won't do to much plugging for it on here unless i get a trader account going though.
but we are called Auto Dynamix
Had a great time at Motorsport Developments, but just feel the time is right to move on, Nici is pregnant so I'm about to become a dad for the first time, it felt like a now or never to do this.
Thanks to all of you who have let me look after their pride and joy over the years, I've given it a good go to keep you all as happy as i could

Shame to hear Stu will be losing a good bloke.
Glad to hear your setting up your own business shame it is still too far away from me.
And congratulations to Nici and yourself.
Regards
Paul

Thank you all, i really mean it,
Baby was a shock but I'm really looking forward to it now, we have a hard year ahead for various reasons but the future looks really bright for us,
There are a few really good people who know who they are i don't have to mention names, but they have been there and really helped me out over the last few months and i honestly am truly flattered by it and will never forget it.
Also can't forget to thank Nici either, sticking by my stupid dreams and ideas and going into the unknown is a risk at the best of times, let alone while being 14 weeks pregant
Lets do this
