Hi Adam, yep, going well with your turbo:) Put in a piper 285 with bit headwork and made big difference on the rollers.

We`ll soon see on track soon as racing couple weeks.

Thanks Brett, nice to see you back:)

Gio,

We are at Brands on the 15th March for our first race of the season, and there is another 5 racing that day in the Toyo tires saloons.:cool:

Have no links as yet to a website, but me and a mate who I race with are making a website for the new season. When its up and running will let you know.

Must feel good to have the 'Yellow Peril' in one piece and on all four wheels again...?

*Yellow*

Yeah Matt, looking forward to Brands now all done.
We have spent a `few` hours working on her, thanks for all your help and lets hope for a good day:cool:

Excellent stuff, glad I got to finish Terrys too.
Means I get Monday off now......:D
I'll bring my alignment gear to Brands for a final measure and set-up....hopefully not many people will need the flat floor in the scrotes/scruts bay....if there is a problem, we can pick out a decent area in the lower half of the paddock, its fairly flat there now,and away from prying eyes......

looks good, might be tempted to give my cup a quick blow over this month. :)

I put them on as the others got damaged, got some phase 2 ones, but thought give these a go first.

Awesome car & colour :agree: Reminds me of the time I missed out on buying it...twice :cry: ;) :D

Would be good to see it (and all the other Cup cars in the club) at this year's ND. Perhaps we could arrange a Cup car only 'race'? (said in the loose term).
