Insured as standard then :lol:

Very impressive. Even more so when you consider how much shit it gets.

James, you know what makes me laugh most it - it's a drift monster - but you've still got a stereo in it .... :) ... think of the weight savings ...

That list seems almost never ending.

LOL

That stereo is partly responsible for my improvements this year. I listen to Coldplay when I am getting nervous queuing before qualifying. And i listen to The Prodigy if I feel I have chilled a bit too much if theres a delay for a while !!!

The biggest weight savings are made when I foget my lunch or remember to have a dump before going out !!!

Tis a never ending spec though. I could quite easily pour 10k into the car on areas that could do with improvement !!! But I dont have to worry. I get to race a company car next year with 600bhp and a sequential box !!! Wont cost me a penny - even to turn up !!

:D :D :D
