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

Evening All.

Apologies for the quietness from this end. Ive not had time to catch up much on the forum.

Ive been a bit distracted with wedding plans in readiness for Friday. Poor excuse i know.........

Outside of that .............. work has been an absolute nightmare. Id pull my hair out if I had any.

Ive been plugging away at the Rotus still, more glass work, trying to finish off interior trim pieces before teardown. Made a little tray to put nik-naks etc in and breaks up the flatness of the firewall.

Making moulds for the father in laws Locost as well ! kill me now!

Following the regs of IVA too, so I modded my non-locking fuel filler cap that will accept a tether. Bath plug chain! £2.99 ebay special. That will stop losing it on track or road when driving.

I guess Ive moved up a notch, in my own book,  if nothing else.

Im not finished with the Rotus, but Im almost at the point of stripping it all part for paint and final build. Like wise Ive no intention of selling the Rotus, as its been a big part of my recent life and the most technically challenging build Ive had to date.

Well, despite the bikes I still want to do, I still have plans in the rotary world.

My next build is probably going to be my last car build, as my projects take forever! But its going to be my best build !!!!

I wont give too much away........... yet............. but Ive bought some pieces to start it as the car is built around the engine.

Enjoy !
