Less than before.

Actual figure I don't know and it's not all together as a ready car yet.

Not sure what you mean.

Only taken out the dash, pedals, steering column, wiring, dash pod...

Not touched the shell at all.

My mistake, I see it all now. How could I have mistaken it. I like the shiny finish though, don't suppose you could leave it bare 

Just wanted to clarify dates of meetings if anyone wants to pop along.

The suport is always appreciated and we can sometimes get some cheap tickets too.

Plus being a club day there is lot more freedom than on a BTCC day, meaning you are free to go to the pits, paddock etc...

 

 

I will leave Damo to confirm his dates, but expect they are similar to mine.

Plus I have entered my R32 Skyline GT-R race car too, in the "Special Saloons & Modsports" which doesn't do as many races as the Tin Tops.

Well it is a secret no more. Last Saturday I passed my ARDS test and I'll be joining Richard and Damo in the Tin Tops, I will be competing in at least the first three races, Snetterton, Silverstone and Brands Hatch. I'll be driving the ex BTCC Ford Focus.

Had a taster of it at brands hatch a couple of weeks ago. Brilliant car, just have to get used to racing and not track driving...

I will confirm mine later this week, I'm a little bit spread shall we say [emoji6] got a couple of things in the pipeline which will mean no upgrades to my car in terms of weight loss for the near future...

If annoying people are allowed, I may pop down and see you at Silverstone as its one about 15 mins from my house!  

Are you sorted for the pit crew Danny?

Not 100% sure but I believe I'll be sharing pit crew with Richard.

Think I'll fly in for donnington if I can. I'll put a sticky on the calendar.

Epic, thank you!

Just remember to do the wheel bolts up enough!

Always take time to check my wheel bolts

It's fuel you gotta worry about [emoji6] I only just made it home at Brands [emoji50]

Fiesta coming back together...

 

That shifter!!!

Still haven't decided whether to use the joystick or mind control for steering then eh? And saving weight by not having a windscreen I see too; devilishly clever. You could go all retro and were biggles style goggles and fit a giant wooden steering wheel, hehe ;-)

We can't.

There are two cables, one for left/right and one for backwards/forwards.

It's a H pattern shifter.

 

I could hardly reach the original being 6'3" tall.

So had this billet one (same as Kester's) mounted up on a plinth.

That makes more sense [emoji106]
