Saw them on FB Ron, real good videos. Think you need to change two clicks up or down to two clicks HARDER or SOFTER

When / where is the next race mate?

Roof looks great,

Vent was copied from my carbon 1 which is from demon tweeks or similar and is about Ł280 in carbon, but comes with directional vents that are not in the photo of Ronnies one so not sure what he will be using

How did it go today?

Hi mate was this a proper cossy shell? If not is the mount there to put the cossy box in place or do you have to make a mounting for it? Cheers, Darren.
