Car looks great Mark. Nice to see the West Yrokshire massive are putting in the effort. I'll look out for you at Le-Mans. Are you at Sherburn this Sunday?

Thanks Mike! Yep, had designs on a very special Tuscan Challenge car and racing in the DTEC this year, but half an hour before the deal was done on my Sagaris, the guy with the TC car reneged on the deal and has kept it to compete again this year. Oh well, at least I get to enjoy her for another summer.

Mama always said, "Don't be a shy boy".
I hope you and the family do make it mate, looks like it's going to be a good one. Email Trickie with your intent though as he needs numbers for the BBQ (he needs to make sure there are second and third helpings)!
