 :cry: :cry: I wanted to come.  :cry: :cry:

Looking sweet as usual though, what sort of speeds, times did it do? or did they not bring the timing gear with them?

no they didn`t bring any timing gear and was lucky we got on the track as it was pissing down all day, but plenty of donughts and 6 good old thrashings round the track, until the fan belt decided to come off :cry:

Still it has to be said that that car is immense.

All credit to joe and his engineering ability. Must look mental sitting next to a standard mk1 seeing it so much wider and squatted on its arse.  :cool: :cool: :cool: :cool:

Am I the only one that thinks thats not only a bit stupid, but a wasted opportunity.....

Hats off to Jo for building an awesome looking machine.

Give us an engine shot Jo :D that looks good! still can't believe you got that engine in that car and didn't give up I had a headache changing my oil lol :D

Is there a step by step thing anywhere or is it in the pipeline? wouldn't mind a read of that epic list!!!
