Mine was sat on its arse like that when I bought. When Track V Road serviced it, they set up the geometry etc and lifted the back end up a touch - it has made a difference, feels more planted now.

EXACTLY....... Me being an ex sparker knew that as well. Really pisses me of when you see not only it referred so many times as a jack, but when it is flown upside down.

You as well biggrin. The majority of folk in the UK wouldnt have any idea what way it should flown anyway, the ones flown in the military at least have a longer piece of rope on the bottom than the top, thus if its connected to,the hallards to be pulled up the flag pole, or inded a jack staff of a man of war (Navy warship to the unitiated), you couldn't pull it all the way to the top if it was rigged upside down,

Anyway, back to the TVR's

Indeed, almost as much joy of being rum bosun for the mess, if you can remember that far back.
