Default FAO Tony Mannock TURBOSYSTEMS

hope i got your name right.

As me and probably everyone else on this board wants to know - What is the story with your blue sapphire? Everytime i see in in your sig i think - fuck me thats smart!
So is it going to get back on the road? - I understand you have been there, seen it done it etc and cossies are total money pits etc etc - just want to know if you have any plans to use it/compete it. I also remember you saying it donored parts to Dereks car etc - how much is still there?

There's some serious quip obsession in some of those engine bays. Was Dave M helping spec them

Is that it, need a pic of the underside before I can recognise it.
Is the funniest
