Yes, was a physically and mentally draining rebuild, but I did manage to pull my head out of my arse for Sunday!!


138 donated manhours + bodyshop time + pile of new parts = 2nd Place :)

Having never pulled a car straight before, and doing the alignment myself on simple gauges it certainly handled well this weekend so I think we can say its straight :)

Bad luck continues!!

Finished 2nd at Knockhill, but had the start of an engine issue which put me out of Silverstone - inlet valves.

Got the engine rebuilt for Brands, and was looking forward to a good event, however 9 laps in the car burst into flames.

Inferno = mega damage

The club and friends have started a fund to help me get it rebuilt for Snetterton, but its a BIG job, lots of damage.

Holy shit!!!!! :o

Didn't realise it went up like that. That could have been so much worse than it was, thank god you weren't injured in that. Good luck for getting it sorted for snetterton.
