Great work Gary / Danny! That car just gets better and better.......I must admit though I would have loved to see the mighty Evo at full chat over Avon rise and into Quarry at Castle coombe.....
Thats one area that takes no prisoners....

Was the bracket a nightmare to machine up? Difficult to gauge from the photos

One thing that I loved about the paddle shift that you can't tell til you hold it, and use it, is just how positive the change is. It's a really solid and deliberate 'click' that's required to change gears. Really feels quality. Quite how it feels when you're thumping down the track at warp factor 12 is anybody's guess
