    I have to say that qualifying is one of the highlights of last year for me. Great to hear your taking part again this year

    I remember watching that livestream from home on the saturday... When you pulled off that epic entry in the video i jumped up off the seat and was roaring for you to complete the qualifying run in the same fashion. For me that's what the sport is all about! My girlfriend ran into the room asking me what was wrong and she took the piss out of me for getting so excited. she thought i was after dropping my tea on my lap or something...

    I'll be there egging you on this year anyways man. Keep doing what you do. you seem to be disciplined in your approach and that will pay off. Some of the pros aren't even the most extreme drivers out there, but they're consistent and they're experienced. I hope you go far this year.

    Ha Ha, thanks Lar. Hopefully it'll be a good year. Interesting to see how the car performs now that it has a proper suspension set up and new tyres, no more part worns this year.

    Thanks man, good to hear a bit of feedback from this thread

    2015 build progress has been a bit slow but I've a good few things to do now over the next few weeks to get it finished and ready for round 1.

    Stripped the car of all it's panels, doors, bootlid, bonnet, all will be replaced.



    Also got the grinder to the rear of the car








    Also installed a couple of gauges to keep a closer eye on the engine. Oil pressure & oil temperature gauge.

    Made up a little console to hold everything in the dash. Happy enough with it now.



    Mario made new rear overfenders, looking forward to getting these fitted.




    Now I'm just waiting on parts to come so I can start putting this back together.

    Finally got a chance to get back working on the car last week.

    Right & left over fenders fitted 90%. Need to fit skirts and rear bumper to tie everything in and there will be a small bit of trimming to do.





    Also got the boot pretty much sorted and straightened out. Happy enough with it, its no road car so it'll do the job!



    I've a new m20 saches clutch kit to go in along with some new engine mounts, should get them in this week

    Thanks Yeah it was a bit touch and go if I was gonna be able to complete a full season but I've been very lucky with securing a great sponsor. Just getting everything sorted before I can say it is 100%.
