No Daz, we were out a couple of weeks back at Weeton....box came out after that then down to Bara for the conversion....top job by Bara, the boys turned it round really quickly.....got some tunnel mods to do to the shell before it gets fitted.....

Felt really sweet on the gearbox dyno.....

What is great with Ian, is that he's not trying to hidden his car/parts. I know lot of people who does have WRC cars and who are not showing anything of it. I can understand it, but then why beeing that much stupid to talk enough of it to make the others hungry ? Thank you Ian for sharing !

Thanks for that Matt....

Paul, ive done some pics of the fuel pressure reg we have on the car, its what they call the 8 bar version of wrc reg, some are mounted on a bracket on the scuttle panel but I opted to fit it to the bulkhead...
