Actually a 'Plymouth Suburban' - which raises the question - When did Chevrolet nick the name?  :D

Too Fast to Race
Too old to Care
Two rotors gone
Three now for pace
Soon to give the big cars Something to chase.

Its all starting to come together now finally.
Jim finished all his Hokus Pokus wiring that I now do not understand  ;)  and the custom dash assembly is now finished.

Hopefully Mapping will go OK next week then its off to the Retro Rides the following weekend the 21st and 22nd.

Just had the email in telling me I have been chosen to attend and that there's one an a half hours free track time     8)

That is quite a transformation!

Fingers crossed the mapping goes well and you can use that time at Retro Rides for some seat/testing time  :icon_thumleft:

This demands some more po8try:

A 3-rotor Eight's come alive
Constructed by race-driver Clive
He built it to last,
Good God it is fast!
And sounds like an angry beehive


Hmmmmmm over braps

I know a few are wondering what is happening with the Racecar.
Unfortunately we have found we have needed to change direction as regards the engine and have bought a different engine that will be assembled by Pip.

Hopefully our new target becomes the biggest event on the calendar which is Brands 1st and 2nd of July. They are even flying cars and drivers over from New Zealand for this special event.

Just booked this plus a full test day the day before. 
All the best Clive
