    Nice work, good luck with the rebuild. Got any pics/videos of the races you can upload yet?

    Sorry for delay, just never enough time these days.

    The orange marker lights are our indicators, I think different to some other world wide markets and driving laws.

    No vids of racing sadly, she has not done much since the GT4 Owners club Challenge day.

    Current plans are very very very slowly coming together.

    Lack of money being the major issue at present.

    Crank is re ground and done. Just need to pick it up from Steve.
    Head strip down and re build should start very soon.

    Car at present is running well, a little top end noise now from 3 years of hard track work. :)

    Current work centres on free stuff. So we are stripping bits and pieces of weight from the car.

    Have to report that the brakes are simply amazing, by far the best chassis mod I ever did.
    You simply cannot get them to fade, and once the pads are warm they far exceed the grip off my street tyres.

    Few little mods done

    LED rear bulb for the fog light, so I am legal
    Further under engine ducting made up to make the most of the air coming entering the bay.

    I have a spare bumper and bonnet which will be cut up for some further R & D on airflow and front spliter stuff.

    Rich's cylinder head has been done at a place near to where I live. Because the guy that's doing the work is a friend of mine, he's able to do it at a good price . Went to have a look at the finished article.
