    Great vid mate, Excuse my lack of sprint knowledge.

    Does the green represent you are clear to start? Rather than like you are timed from green?

    Yes you go on green but timing starts when the timing strut on front of car breaks the timing beam

    Basically Engine Dynamics level 3 build, Garratt GT2560r turbo, still on carb and standard ignition. All set up by Scoff who has given me fantastic advice re engine build etc. I'm looking to go EFI via Scoff over the winter. It runs a gripper as well and is on AVOgtx suspension.

    Yeah Ricky is the one that keeps it all on the road ( when I go off ) and has done all the preparation and set up for me. He has loads of knowledge, really has got me out of a few scrapes when we've had mechanical issues. I'm lucky to have found him. I can put air in the tyres, everything else is down to him.

    I haven't started the process yet, so first thing is I need to find or have a made a good quality EFI manifold with fuel rail and TPS sensor. Any ideas?

    Re: Loton Park Hillclimb

    I bought a manifold a couple of Michael a couple weeks ago, nice bit of kit.
    Saab red injectors turned up today.
    Been in touch with Scoff @EFI, he has sorted all the other bits needed.

    Let me know how you get on, I probably wont get round to this until December/January, subject to Scoffs availability.
