Great spec, did you build the engine or did you buy a ready built one?,

[Wobbly Dave]

Sounds excellent - lets hope I can bring you some competition.

bought it mate with 100 miles on it, hence the quick turnaround

[T5frankie]

i actually am finding the tyres are brilliant in the wet, lots of turn in even when pouring, much much better than the shocking pirellis

Don't try them on the motorway in a downpour like i did on the way to Trax, had to go sit with the trucks to move the water the dam thing wouldn't stay straight lol,

So how long till you can boot it?
