Movement with the house, all signed up, completing end of next week, so as a result, she's finally coming out of hibernation later this morning; complete with shiny new breathing apparatus !! 
Given the time she's been away, plus another ~ 100 horses, I think it'll be slow and steady for a while yet tho
Still feel like it's Christmas

I bet it will feel amazing to have her back!
100 horses - wow , is it now at an incredible number or was it down on power before or are you comparing to the number you first started with??
What spec is your engine now? Is it like HarryWs or is it a Red Rose spec with short induction and remap?
My Red Rose is 411 or something like that (maybe a little higher since headwork). I like to think a remap might push it to 430. so another 20 hp 'only'.

The latter, RR...
Is awesome yes, and the 100 horses is basically down to problems with deormed pipes before, negatively impacting the remap, so moving to the short induction, it's the gap from where we were, to where we are now with a few tweaks. Needs some more running in tho before the final remap.... Great excuse to get out

Don't laugh - but - got her back for 24 hours, about 80 miles... and guess what.........
Clutch....
(Just no resistance behind the peddal)
It's literally just been replaced, along with the cylinder (got it all done) so it's less than 500 miles old!?!
I'm hoping it's something simple/silly due to the rebuild, and maybe a hydraulic hose not fixed properly or something....(?) just hoping it's not the clutch itself, again!
I real last time that if you don't put them on EXACTLY the way they were when you took it off (i.e. same 'rotation') then the fingers can go really easily. But after 500 miles I wouldn't have thought that the fingers would have 'worn' much, such that it would make a difference?
If it does turn out to be the issue though - damned if I'm paying for another!

Air in the hydraulics. Seals gone inside master or slave cylinder. Hope it's an easy fix for you
Cylinder(s ?) replaced with the clutch, so hoping "air in the pipes" is the issue... Tricky to fix on the A26 in the middle of nowhere though... so still had to get it recovered *sigh*

Could be the master cylinder seals. Is there fluid in the footwell?
Was in convoy (fortunately) en route to a cricket match, so didn't have much time for investigation - nothing obvious - but as I said, was hurried 
It's back with Austec (I think) and I'll call them later.
Hoping its air, or a hose issue... nothing this major
