Stripped all that crap out of it .

Those windings took me ages, lots of swearing and banging

Now I know how it’s put together I can go more brutal next time

I remember all that junk but you now have some very good magnets for ron.
BTW is now a good time to tell you that the steering will be a little heavy when your parking and going real slow

I’ve had no power steering for a couple of months in the 8

When I got it working again yesterday I must admit it felt too light loll

The lotus is a lot lighter than the 8 I’m sure it will be good

My first drive up shelsley Walsh today.

Time 44.50 secs

Jon (father in law) in his gt86 last year 57 secs. ROTARY POWER !

Course record 22.58 in a proper hill climb racer.

Now I know the braking zones I can push harder.

Try and get under 40 before the day is out

Not checked the footage yet but my 3rd run with no father in law is low 42.

Productive morning.

It's so strange ( and obvious) how the hill saps all the speed off compared to hooning about on the road.

Need a track day in the 8 before the smokey joe dies......
