Looking good, I like a challenge. Do you think it will get there this time?

I need an aerodynamic consultants view on my car, ask Colin to bring the grinder.

Don't worry shifty, unless it's packing more than 280bhp it'll be a walk over,a guy runs one at KH and Crail about 13.1, but no match on a twisty track

Re: FAO Shifty: Its coming to kick your butt.
We'll its certainly got more chance being ready than my Corrado. I had forgotten how many job's were still left to be done

Better get my finger out - or it won't be ready by March'07

Bodywork Still needs attention.


And it's still on axle stands - been in the air so long it probably thinks its a plane!
