Hi Dave

Yes we had a run out to CWR open day. about a 240 mile round trip. All the cars behaved after there winter hibernation except the SEAC as she suffered a stuck rear caliper on the way. But the other five cars performed well. The 450SE was a bit thirsty in comparison to the other V8's which did the whole trip on a tank full were the 450 had to be refiled.

Which means I now have two weeks to change the calipers on the SEAC in time for Berghley in April.

Hi Dave

I remember seeing the trailer with the car on the back, I was not certain what it was but now know. Hope you journey was a good one with out any problems. Yesterday was just a shake down run out to see how the cars were from the winter storage and the work I had done on them. The list of adjustments is surprising small.
It was a lovely run 240 + miles with the roofs down and it's still only March!
