Car is in at Austech having alignment set up now that suspension has settled down and MOT, they have phoned to say Mark Adams is there and had a cancellation so did I want him to remap ECU, fit new airflow meter and set-up.
I, as we Wedgers have to, checked with Mrs Redcar, and she said do it,: so its being done today, will let you know figures.when I pick it up Saturday. Hope its not too powerful : :

Don't be disappointed with the numbers .. Mark only deals with real numbers .. not like TVR's : 324 / 340 etc.. but you will feel the real difference on the road.

We all talk numbers but Im having it mainly done to smooth idle and to gain a smoother delivery over the whole rev range. (sounds like I'm trying to convince myself).:

I didn't realise you used it daily, don't you have to suffer the dreaded M25 every day. I have to go and see customers so cannot use mine for work, customers trend to think your charging them too much if you can " afford a TVR", typical of this countries veiw that if you do will you get negative criticism instead of praise. Enough soap box

No - I work from home 3 days a week and suffer a 120 mile round trip to/from work for the other two days.

Moving closer to work very soon - looking forward to giving much less fuel tax money to the chancellor (unless I use the TVR to go to work of course !)..

I went out playing in mine last night ... racing the local motorbikes along the dual carriage ways and round (and round) the roundabouts.. very childish but great fun.

I was the one with the joker style grin when I returned and a very hot engine !

Martin - I think Stever has plans for a meet before BBWF.
