Update:
So Yesterday evening i decided to put the car on the trailer and take it to a man over near clones, Mickey Tyan's AutoBody Shop, I need to get a guide price on what it was going to cost to get her benched and jig'd, and what parts wer needed to be replaced, landed at 5pm yesterday and after chatting and explaining what the whole Drifting Sport was about, he was very very interested and keen on it, as he throws his hand at rallyin and benches alot of rally cars/ paints them also, he offered me discount prices for the benching of the car and now he is also going to spray the outside of it for me in his booth :) ( but that cant be done for a month yet due to me having to modify my kit to make it fit my new rear wheels )... Anyways when i got the price for the work i was more than happy with this, and he even took a car of his bench while i was there and said for me to help him roll mine onto to it instead and he would tackle my car straight away so as i could have plenty of time to get the rest of it ready for round 1, landed up this morning to him with wings for the final adjustments, they had worked most of last night and early this morning, himself Michael and Son Martin, They Have done a Savage Job on the car and in such a short space of time, i think its nearly better and straighter than it ever was!! pics to follow when i find my lead for the phone..
SO BIG THANKS TO TYAN BODYSHOP the newest addition to my sponsor list for 2011 im so glad to have these lads onboard with me as their work is great and they are really letting me out of a big hole! now round 1 is a possiblity :D
Excellent news Chris,Should put you in a postive mood!

No prob yea thats true thats what its all about, presure weither we'r workin on them or driving them lol
Heres a spot of inspiration for you. Get it running and working right. Let the paint to the very last and if its not done don't worry about it. It looks perfect like this!

Will get back to you after round 1 with an answer, but so far so good, takes a little getting used to the manual rack, handling wise, never drove a car as good as it ever!, its all down to the parts in the car that MCN Sport supplied and the job Ffrenchie and Wez @ WKD imports did for me on setting her up, heading back down to them next week for a new front setup with some slight tweaks so cannot wait to get out again in it!! I've built something i've always talked about and wanted, i wasnt sure at the start if i was making the right move, but now im glad i did as im over the moon with the car and the people i now have supporting me this year, I think with no major problems this year and some seat time, we should go really well! Damn i went off on one there lol! :)
