Good luck for the 14th / 16th,

don't forget to get a second 'get me to the ring map' put on, for those special occasions I dread to think what the next spec sheet will read like if this one doesn't make it

Lots of trips out for milk and papers this week then? and don't forget the panoramic lens to get your whole grin in when the beast is finally unleashed

Can't wait to get the old girl done now.

Lots of trips for sure, going to do some miles today in fits and starts. Hopefully about 150+ just today.

As CJ says, it will be interesting to see what it does on the 16th. Simon reckons that 420bhp / 450nm is well achievable with the current set up. Maybe a little more. But, that will do for starters.

Roll on next years round of mods.

Any chance of a passenger ride at the meet or sometime?

It has been hell. It's funny how every chavved up Nova / Rover etc etc wants to have a burn up when you can't. But then again, they wouldn't normally be in the same place at the same time as me, driving like "Miss Daisy" means that we are.

Mate, no probs for a blast.

Have found the turbo spools to 0.5 bar by 2000rpm with out much effort and hums at 0.2 bar making a totally different noise to the 20g .
