Can't commit to getting car ready in time due to work, so bailing out.
I'll take my chances if I do, will visit anyway.
Shall we just meet you over there or drop by your place on the way?

hehe Glad I have just re-enabled my traction control! Also upped the rev limiter a bit for more power though....

I actually wonder if mine is working as apart from throw a warning on the dash & sounding bells & whistles & God knows what else it doesn't appear to affect the drive going to the wheels. They way they describe it on Top Gear as being 'intrusive' & cutting power - I really can't say mine does that.

Thats cos you have no power to cut!

Easy solution - you know that you want to :-)

Unfortunately, I am now having to bail at the last minutes - apologies Janosh after your organising, and hate having to do this so last minute. Was really looking forward to this after all the work that has been done to the car, but the starter motor that was very flaky has of all days, finally given up the ghost. Took today off work to get the car ready, plan was to get fuel, get home, wash and wax the car ready, instead, got to the petrol station, and no further, nice little AA call out instead. Car now back at Neil's for an extended holiday and wait for the long rumoured replacement starter to turn up that's been on order for the last 5 weeks......

P**ded off would be a bit of an understatement right now.

Gutted for you blue. Sods law eh?

Gonna get me a second slot anyway so can do some tune tweaking. Still getting some annoying knock and the roads are a bit too cold atm to do proper road testing. Only managed to use 554bhp @ 4400rpm on the way home today frownhehe

Hi all, another last minute drop out here I'm afraid, apologies, but totally lacking enthusiasm in going anywhere this weekend.

I'll watch this thread tomorrow afternoon, if my spot doesn't get filled, let me know and I'll give Charlie a call and make sure he's not out of pocket.

Guys really sorry im dropping out

I have been plagued with wrong parts from the states way too many times, received the correct parts so have been working on the car like mad, but no faced with a snapped rocker stand

I did have backup cars too, but one sold and the other is now still in paint.

again apologies for being a tt and messing this up
