Another little update,

Hoping all going well back together end of Jan....

Rear TCAs have been done...mate is fabricating all new suspension pickups over xmas break in his shed.

Ive been repairing body work with fibre glass and filler and manage to save my seat again with fibreglass.

Found a twisted halfshaft in the axle and have a new pair with new bearings put aside.

swap out to diff ratio after an airfield track day just to make sure ok.

Bank account is healthy again no decision yet on whether to race 2015 considering a year of trackdays to learn it!

distinct lack of tracktime 2014 want 2015 to be a year of me an my rotary rocket on track .

ive just gotta remember how it all goes back together.

re japi

Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.

A pleasing full stop to the old year and positive new paragraph for the coming one.  Really good to see you fixed it rather than yield to the professional 'reject/replace' advice. It's pushed "Learn to weld" back up my bucket-list ladder several rungs.

Best wishes for uneventful flirting in '15.
