your a machine mate!! I dunno how you do it LOL. Unfortunately in my job I have to deal with a hell of a lot of people every day and have to be
pleasant and happy which is damm hard when you only get a handfull of hours of sleep and you just simply feel like ripping somebody's head off!! I
have to simply "prioritise" which jobs get done first at home starting with keeping the boss happy then slipping out to the shed for 3-4 hours a
night till my back tells me enough is enough.....
hope all goes well and you get it to warwick!!

After a big weekend of colour sanding, my involvement in Bec's squareback has drawn to an end for now. I went up to Bec's and Aaron's last night to
help get the guards etc back on. Set the camera on self-timer and took a quick snap before I took off....
I'm sure it will be a big week ahead for you guys but it is looking great thus far!

That is just SOOOO WRONG!
Hey Stanley, I think that Aaron is doing 12 hours at his day-job,
then 13 hours at home afterward,
leaving negative 1 hour for sleep.
Thankfully when the metric system came in they did not make the days only 10 hours!

Dyno today went very well, I wasn't far off with my street tune which ment less $ and gives us more time to work on tid-bits.
Bec is totally raped with the hole out come. She is so excited to have her car back on the road and looking and driving fantastic.
now back to the shed.

Glad you managed to fix the box on Sat nite Sorry I didn't get to say
hi but everytime I went to see if you guys were around the car when it was in the tent no one was about.
Had to head back to Brissy after 4 on Sat but was great to see the Squareback fly down the track
Hopefully catch you next time

Valla is soon, must do more on the interior and must decide if I should go manual , since I'm taking out the gearbox to fix but must check if it will
fit of course .
It would be good to have a manual to race at warwick. But auto will still be fun.
