Right not been on for a while but I have been enjoying some family time as the car is now up and about!

Took it to a local cruise the other night, haven't been to a"cruise" I about 15 years but it turned out to be a laugh.

As you can see, can't even see it for the crowds


And the best bit of the night........ Whipping a wannabe on the way home, don't think the boy knew what hit him!

Looking for a decent box and diffs now, it's going to Will Pedley after Cumbria for a week to have some tinkering too. Once the box is sourced I am going for more power.

Not sure mate, getting the fuelling sorted when it goes down to will and we are sticking it on the rollers so will find out then. It did do 383bhp before so it will be interesting to find out now.

Before when I had it in the saph it was really good, power delivery was fantastic, on this it still hasn't been set up properly, will is doing it this week. I can't wait! Once that's done it should be back to silly speeds

It's crying out for some bigger brakes at the front now but keeping the 7 spokes.

Cheers guys,

I honestly don't think that I need bigger brakes, these ones are mental! Remember this thing doesn't weigh as much as a saph and it does really well already.

Cleaned up behind and stuck the new lights in

Then we drove to Will Pedleys so that he can work his magic!



I really need to stop talking to him! Think I have now decided to get a cut off switch, fire supression system, more power, decent gearbox and diffs. And i want to change the fuel system!

I got a pretty good offer recently and knocked it back, it was pretty close to considering though and I think I want to buy daves focus time attack car?!?!? Never say never as they say.

I was late Carlo, Ali from MJ racing took the car for me in the morning as I got married the day before! Will catch up sometime, you going to Scottish car show or national day?
