        The show as ace and there was loads of good feed back also and thanks to all the people from the forum that said hi.
        Great to meet you Dave your a good laugh especially when I came up to you flashed my show badge and said Forum Police

        This car is beyond words the attention to detail is mind blowing and those twin garretts are going to be awesome

        This is a V6 with the same setup http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-G6VZ-qTNc can't imagine the V8

          LOL as that was the going comment from every one that looked over the car! some say it was only a 2wd.... The back also had no shafts in it also.

          They are being made at the moment and I have never really had the car on the ground before to check the wheel clearance. Now that's done I can correctly measure up for the shafts.

          Dont worry as the forum police will keep me in check LOL

            The car looked absolutely stanning, as Jamo noticed the attention to detail was fantastic, even the rivets were in dead strait line.
            Dave it was pleasure to meet you and have a chat, by the way the spot you have chosen to display your car could not be better it must have been seen by everyone.
            cheers

                                that´s good then


                                what an awesome build you made...

                                i believe that you have choosen the V8 engine because the L5 was "the easy" way?



                                i wish to can meet you and this rocket soon there in Northampton (IF possible )
