Brands next Saturday/ Sunday.
Steve's working his socks off ATM to get the whole front end in paint so I can get it back together in time.
All the best Clive

Picked the car up yesterday.
Here's the (conservative) dyno as its still on low boost.

I wasn't that far out with my flywheel guesstimate after all
I always work on 17% for frictional losses from flywheel to wheels.
All the best Clive

Mr Spiller

Huge Thanks to Jim (Lennycarloff) who came down from Yorkshire and spent the whole weekend to continue his amazing wiring extravaganza on the race car   :sign0098:.

Thanks must also go to Steve who worked on prepping and painting the wings nose and bonnet despite being not well!! :great:.

I so appreciate this help getting the car ready for its next outing at Brands next Saturday and Sunday next weekend.

       
All the best Clive

Good luck captain ! Hope she behaves.

Is the whole weekend being televised do you know ? Wouldn't mind trying to catch the trucks and the pick ups as well as yours ?

Good'ish day today with more speed to come tomorrow.

With a low rev limit that Jim will raise tomorrow, got down to a 53.5.

Very pleased with the way the car looks now after Steve repaired and painted the front end (thank you)

Not only looking forward to tomorrow, but also with all the things I have seen today, tomorrow will be a huge Monster Event and there's trucks as well.   
All the best Clive
