Just seen the vid with Carter sat here. He told me that was one of your first runs Phil. Errrrrrrr. Thats fcuking mental mate! I wont lie - I was a bit sceptical that the weight/positioning/handling might not be quite as planned. But it definitely looks like it cant be that bad LOL! Fcuking good work! It might have been 18 mths or whatever in the making, but its fantastic to finally see and hear it run.

Got it all checked over, and fluids changed today. We had a couple of loose suspension bolts, so hopefully it'll be a little more predictable tomorrow.. I'm really looking forward to smoking it up again, and I can't wait to drive against Kumakubo. I'm going to have to drown him in smoke . Anyway, he's not allowed to win as it's my birthday

roffle!1 So happy for you Phil; that at last all the sweat, blood and tears has all paid off, or it certainly will do tomorrow. It looks incredible, and to think what it looked like aaaaaal those months ago at Julian's when it was practically a bare shell with just a cage in it. Oh and Happy Birthday for tomorrow, shmoke 'em up good |

fucking awesome to see this car finally run, after seeing it as a bare shell for soooo long at Julian's and then all the enigne problems, but to finally see it make a run like that is all worth the wait. Now go and drive the thing to the win!!
