That was Darren driving, sadly I'm not as talented as he is

[EX51GE R]

And a job Darren was going to put off until after our next TD at Anglesey he's just decided to plough on and do it !!!

[EX51GE R]

Darren's had to attend to real work, so not much going on wing brackets are back though...

[EX51GE R]

Darrens been busy ....

[EX51GE R]

Other side done

[EX51GE R]

Carbon end plates from the wing supplier at @£260 or end plates from the F1 supplier in the unit next door for beer tokens, tough choice

[EX51GE R]

Aero bits all off, ready for the powder coaters...

Yes standard box, was always a question of when not if. Will be looking at upgrade options now.

What's the plan for the gearbox? Rebuilt stock or upgraded or full race box? Just read about a 1100bhp Honda civic type r so there are gearboxes out there that can take the power!

We have a plan, but it's a bit hush hush through a customer/supplier of TTS

[EX51GE R]

So seats out, roof off and bulkhead stripped in readiness for the new cage and bulkhead..
