Yeah I agree with you there pal, im really happy with how the roofs come out, it was funny when it was raining, its so bloody loud inside lol. Engine im planning changes, just its going to cost lots of $$$$ so I must get saving. Wont be ready for next years trip but probs the the trip after...
So ring next year, and spa before or after whichever suits best?! what do you think? Spa track days are expensive but once in a life time kind of opportunity i reckon!

What's the sort of time scale on yours Wayne? Just thinking for ring next year that's all.
So with the half decent September weather so far I'm planning on taking the car out a few times before the winter. First job however will be to fix the manifold collector which the ring has destroyed once again lol, I'll get pictures up of that tomorrow.

about 2/3's mate, never goes over, well even doing 2 laps of the ring in a row it didnt go over that anyway. Where as with the 13row i found it was going over 3/4!
