[AE82GT]

The long awaited day has arrived.



This should keep me out of trouble for the winter !


See you on the track fellow academicals

[ArosaMike]

Only seems like yesterday that it was me! You'll be amazed how quickly the year goes by....mine's back on the axel stands waiting for it's CR500s with the rear ARB fitted. Can't wait to give it a go!

Good luck with the build/season, looking forward to another Academy... Just hope Cadwell and/or Harewood is on the programme!

That brings back memories

I distinctly remember Mrs Incs face when she popped into he garage to see how I was getting on. I was surrounded by all the lovely shiny stuff all placed around the car with a massive pile of rubbish already accumulated in one corner

Happy as pig in st

She just rolled her eyes and said "see you next week"

Please keep us posted with your latest photos and how the car develops. I always find it interesting seeing a car coming together.

How's the build coming along?

[chris_shirl]

This is definately something i want to try sometime soon when i have the time (need reilable staff) before i can commit.
How is your build going AE82GT? This is definately how i would like to start the academy by building car myself.

Hope your first race season goes well (hopefully one day it will be me )

[Alex Gurr]

I look forward to hearing how you get on.

Mine arrives (in boxes) in 10 months time for the 2012 season and I can't wait

[chris_shirl]

How long do you need to sign up before racing?

[h_____]

Ah it takes me back! dont bank on it taking you all winter though. A couple of focussed weeks and its done. You'll then feel like building another!

Great fun, oh and the academy is dangerous. You've no idea how addictive it is.

Ta Da! - One finished car, now to go spend some more ££ on race kit...north Wales here I come.

The bloody weather is what happened ! it was just about 19 Deg when we sprayed the car then it turned and
TBH we forgot the bonnet by which time it was 0 deg and no chance of spraying it then!

look it's a £20K Robin Hood kit car P.O.S. Will paint it V Soon !
