Hey guys, Ash phoned me up just after taking the video.
He was like a puppy with two tails.
I wonder how many other member he phoned.

Good on ya mate, really pleased for ya.
I bet the neighbour ain't quite so chuffed though....:D
It's a great feeling when it first comes to life.
You know it's all been worth the wait.
You know what comes next though....
The run down that private road that all member seem to have;)

Well done dude

I will look forward to hearing it in person at the Exeter show. I am 90 % ready with my wiring and fuel lines, so its just a a few final connection before my v6 beast is fired up. Can I be as lucky as you to start first time?

[AshG]

cheers for all the nice comments guys.

adrian you have got my number you can pop round any time you like mate. dont forget that i am in rochester now so it should take you around 15-20mins less than it did before. hows your build going i keep meaning to come and have a look but never seem to get round to it.

The build has taken a slightly strange route lately! I have sold my chassis wishbones etc. to my brother in law, and am picking up Blade's old project on Tuesday next week! It's a bit further on than mine, and came up at such a good price I couldn't resist. As soon as it arrives, it's getting mounts for engine, rad etc, then straight to the powder coaters. Hoping to have proper rolloing chassis with engine, box and brakes installed by Christmas. If you fancy popping round, always glad to see you, and I'm sure you'll have some good tips for me.

Cheers

Adrian
