me too, I love getting out there on track and I have missed 4 bloody rounds now !!!

But like I have said the build grew bigger than I expected and I am doing everything RIGHT and not rushing so unless a fairy (who is awesome at car builds) apears I doubt I will be there!!

You've done well so far mate, you'd be gutted if you rushed it and something went wrong. Its worth the wait.

Mind you, if the engine went bang, you could just poke your feet through the space frame and push Flinstone style. :D

Is the chap in the first pic hiding from the turbo....?:lol:
If it wasnt airbourne, you wernt going hard enough

At least you've kept your sanity while you're building your car...

....Exept half of those pictures are upside down! :-D

Are you having any kind of dashboard or will you just mount gauges on the front brace?

I really wish I could come and help (or at least get in the way).

Keep it up mate. :wink:

## Quick update ##

The front end is finished apart from the grill & headlight vent. The engine bay is nearly finished, need to sort the exhaust & power steering bottle. front & rear screens need fitting. The interior needs some work and we need to fit the fuel tank and fuel system. We have taken a slight step back to plan in a better way, the suspension setup.

Loving the oil cooler set up :D

Have you got ducting from the rear of it to help extract the masses of air that will hit it?
