our first car, Car 27, now is complete except for graphics and advertising. It was at AVO last week getting dampers checked and we are due to run it in at Bruntingthorpe next week.

Next in the line is TerryBs Car 111 which is nearly at the same stage except for dampers. seanD and Houseys follow behind but all due to be run in and ready by 10th March.

We are planning some test/track days in March at Snetterton, Rockingham and Silverstone, our first three race locations. those at the at Snetterton track day on 6th March should see 3 of our cars out so please NorthernJim get out of the way.

Development Continues

We had car 27 (blue) and 111 (green) out today at Bruntingthorpe doing 300 miles each and an oil change as a new engine run in. Both survived unscathed and both were performing well.

Car27 off for dyno and tune on Friday, and we pick up another rebuilt race engine, two cages and shave 20 Tyres.

AVO are delivering this week now new dampers sets for us to trial with two different spring rates at Silverstone 1 March on two separate cars. Our other car that ran last year has Gaz Gold so it will be interesting jumping between the cars before we decide what to settle with.

Onwards and upwards
