We won't be running anywhere near the power that Gary had:driving:.

Still got to sort out one minor issue, that being the gearbox. It'll shit itself as soon as we start running at our planned output, they can cope with 400 but even at that Gordon still says we'll lunch a few so it needs sorting as i refuse to cart around a spare gearbox as Alan suggested:smilielol5:. Which reminds me I need to ring Ford today.

as it was a nice day one of the jobs we have to do is sort out the paint on the car, it did have a respray before we bought the car but to be honest its not that great so with my brother leading the way on flatting back the paint and buffeting it back up the one side the car now looks loads better

after 1200 the wing, G6 and then polished buffed up the wing

in this pic can see the difference between the front wing and the door, follow the line of the bricks

Brilliant work guys!:thumbs: It just goes to show that with some effort a wobbly orange peel paint job can come out great! The difference between that door and wing is quite an eye opener- im impressed.:)

Cheers guys, the praise goes to the third member of Team TNT. Wayne, Alans brother, he led the way with this one i've never known the man NOT to have a shiney car and whenever Alan has needed help with the bigger jobs he's always there.

In the last week Wayne has also brought a new sponsor to the team:)
