lol. I look like i'm freezin' in that pic wi Andy. Far from it. Came back lookin' like a tomato heid! :D

Great results and a joy to watch going up the strip again and again and again... :D

For a first time out it was well sorted and consistant on the strip.

Well done to all involved in the car. You must be well chuffed with what it did and what it can do in the future and was good to meet the boys for the first time. :D

Roll on the next event.

Hiya Grant

Doing well fella, cheers :hyper: The car sounded sweet and was clean as a whistle goin' up that strip. Looked well sorted. Have a good season in whatever format you're running it in! :hyper:

Was that it's first time out? and have you done any setting up or testing for the other events you have in mind?

Big thanks for the coments and look forward to seeing your car car that Andy N was telling me about, that will be a monster.

Yeah, it's almost there Grant, just waiting on the engine and a few bits and pieces then plumb it all in. Most of the work has been done on a dummy engine, so all has to come back out, then put back! Had fun (not) trying to get the 19 row 235mm oil cooler in at the wheel arch today, but got there in the end and has a nice 4" long cold feed pipe from the bumper to a dedicated cowling for the cooler. Apart from that, the only headache so far has been trying to get the turbo in the right place! There was a fair bit of headscratching and welding of brackets to get the turbo to clear the steering coupling, 8 injector kit, inlet manifold, clutch reservoir and the inner wing all at the same time! and that's with no brake servo any more!
