baz - not sure its fitted wit 4" dominators now, the ones in the photo were borrowed last minute from road runner racing as mine failed on beam pattern for the dominators i borrowed those then fitted em and the iva man passed it, then i took em off and dropped em back to road runner racing enroute home

- thanks nathan, shes getting there had some issues with overheating and the likes but seems to be about sorted now, just in time for winter going to spend the winter tidying her up a little, covering the bare aluminum covers with vinyl or 3m wrap fitting clear rear lenses to the lights and an oil cooler and uprated cam, before having a rolling road session to get it all 100%

it goes like a rocket! my mates zetec zero cant keep up ive a slightly higher top end than him and better brakes so can go later into corners.

Well it's not spuring me on, in a lull at the moment due to many other things going on. And the garage being full of stuff getting in the way.

Hopefully both will be sorted in the new year and my mind will be back on task .. Either that or I will be earning so much B....dy money I can ship it over to Saturn (Unlikly!)

Only reason mine went to Saturn was a deadline I couldn't meet. And I'm all honesty spud wasn't that expensive either

Actually, it may be that I am earning no money.. In which case I will probably have plenty of time to finish it...
