I wanna say thanks to blacky and wenny for letting me come with them to york. The van makes me laugh so much just looking at it. Its even funnier on the drag strip. Ive never had such a good laugh for ages ginge is so so so funny. The part when ginge smacked wenny round the head with his chomp was so funny. Thanks again lads.

lol pain in the arse bobbies sometimes
got the turbo back and re-fitted, it had a lot of lag due to it being faulty but all seems fine now,
put one of those massive rev counters in today with the shift light, looks cheesy as but works a treat, got it out of a crap nova a while back, will fit a nice smaller one in the clocks when i find one
if its dry sunday should get 11s now i reckon
