Apparently all I'd need is a power commander and a decompression plate at 1.89mm thick...must finish the kit car first though

cage is all in now, bit of a pain as I had to shorten the front section about 50mm to fit in, original seat belts don't fit so ill have to get some harnesses and remount the seats

sprag clutch still needs fixing

neatened the switches and dash up today, and made the anti-tramp bars yesterday (finished in kingfisher blue so should add another 10bhp)

Ditch the leaf springs and 6-link the back end!!
Will find it behaves much better, and plenty of adjustment to get it spot on!

Saw a Kitten out on the road the other day, fairly certain it was the first time!?
Very faded dark red R-reg...
instantly thought of this mad one and smiled!!

What is the body and chassis alignment like on it? (Or what WAS it like?!!) I had a Scimitar SE6a that was shocking!!
Another section of body laid up in the molds to lift the front corner where body was twisted...
shims behind wishbones to put them in the right place... done from new at the factory too, not a bodge after repairs!!
It wasn't subtle... but I bought it like this!

Yeah, I loved it! Broke the car a bit but that's all part of being a novice

The car done better then I thought it would

Ps the barriers they put out are heavier than they look

Oh come on... you were in a Reliant...
a traffic cone would probably have had the same effect!?!

I know, I wrote my bmw saloon off into one.

Really annoys me as used to love Lydden before they put the rhino walls out, now it sucks because the best corner to throw big entries into is devils, so yeah, lets put 3 pissing rhino walls as close to the edge of the track as possible to really ruin your day.

Glad it went well, videos it sounded good.

now find me an rsv mille engine for my MG Midget, thanks!

Don't see the purpose of them tbh, I'd rather hit the tyre wall, I'll be going again tomorrow, pop down to watch

An Rsv engine would be a great fit in the midget...do it
