You did indeed Matt, its people like you that kept up my motivation to get it finished :D Theres plenty on the list, 3 stages infact!Stage 1 should make it more competitive on track! I think i'll keep them close to my chest for now... Lee - made this one up as the other thread is spread over 50 odd pages and all over the place, in the wrong order etc. Its much easier for people to read 2 long pages than 50 Lol Greenman - It was in PFC a good few months ago now pal!Someone elses car i know very well will be in it very soon though! Cheers Aron - cant wait to get back out on track, with you Matt and Co, we'll have the new donny track layout when im back as well ;) ;) Cheers Bensambrook, it was really hard work at the time but im glad i did it, not seen the car for ages now though :( |

|
