Very excited guys!
I'm straight up to Norwich when I pick it up, as I'm going to a wedding, so won't be able to do an update until Sat / Sun.
I might do something briefly via my blackberry though.

lol, my ears would bleed if I had to drop a cog everytime I wanted to overtake on the motorway! I have to admit I do occasionally, but not really much as I normally just chill out when driving on the motorway.
TOAD - D-Day is getting close now!!! I can't wait to see pictures and hear about how it drives!!!!!

WIll update you al as soon as I can.
Just for the record, Northampton Motorsport have some brand new rollers, and they are said to be hard to make good power on. Matt said I should be expecting around 175bhp on them, which would equate to around 185bhp on their previous ones. Considering how low everyone's figures were on their old ones when we were there a year ago, 185bhp should be pretty mental!

Considering I just forked out £4152 for a season train ticket, yes is probably the answer mate.

Colin sent me the pic. That's an old one, about a week Colin said I think. It should have nice new cam covers on now, in white, and a painted bottom end.

I am really looking forward to seeing your updates and reviews of the new engine mate.
Im very keen to move away from N/A power sometime in the near future with my new car and go for a big turbo however your car is very exciting and hats off to you for all the hard work. Well done!!!
