Getting very near, and unusually I am largely ready (normally end up doing all car prep on last day, tow car or truck break down and arrive at 2AM). Over the last few days I have... sealed the rear bulkhead up, made front splitter, fitted rear spoiler, moved oil cooler to improve airflow to radiator, chopped a load of holes in the bonnet to try to get air out to reduce front end lift. Fitted crank trigger kit, had timing set up and map tweaked as it was a bit lean at the topend. Checked front brake pads OK ( they are but still worrying about needing spare pads), Looked at spare tyre pile, compared with weather forecast and decided to leave the slicks at home. Just need to load back on the truck, fill some jerrycans with very expensive petrol and drive to Croft on Sunday!

Jason and I will be driving round with our very own Stig for the day, it should be fun!
