The car looks absolutely wicked Barry, how long before it hits the dyno? and the question I ask everyone- what have you done to your transmission?.
It's going to have to be tough for that engine. Let us know if you are going to go out for a shake down before Warwick. Michael

I didnt make it to Warwick as planned.
But I did get the car to Heathcote a fortnight earlier.
This is why I didnt make Warwick.
We suffered a small glitch, which with the help of DB is now sorted & the car will be back on the track before Xmas.
Big thanks to Mark G, Stuart & Andrew & the Gringo guys for their support. It was a lot of work getting the car out for the first time.
cheers
