Good to meet you, Juno. Richard was just giving the car a bit of a shake-down after a 3.5yr lay-off! Went rather well I thought.

And you too Rob, proper bit if kit that Noble and very well maintained and Run.

Interesting to see you have dialled the Torque back a bit. Will be good to see it that combo of torque and slicks gives the box a healthy life, hope so.

The car sounded awsome and good to see it back out smile



I'll get me carbon wing mirrors on order next week !

Think the Jetsream race car has a different gearbox, was it the grazziano? The one i saw had the engine rotated and a great big lump of a gearbox sticking out the back, proper piece of kit i must say.

No, it is Mr Goulds grey M400 racer that we look after. One of the early 600 boys.

lol - c'mon Graham, you've been in my car!
As others said, the race car belongs to Richard (aka Chillidog) - raced in the LMA Eurosaloons series over 3 yrs ago.
