No............will be over the weekend now due to more issues. Nothing major and all sorted now, but it's held things up yet again. The joys of building a race car eh...

Not just a Race car Ben, any build project which includes dealing with America doubles the time you planned on doing it.

It's just been bought to my attention that I've got a 1000 hp engine, a 850 hp turbo system and a fuel system which I paid $800 for which isn't upto the job.

No not yet......few wiring gremlins still to sort and re-doing a few hoses to route things a bit better around the supercharger as there is naff all room there to get the oil lines hooked up. Should be on the dyno next week though all being well.

Engine has been run up though and all is good there, so not far to go now.

Still waiting on alot of the aero parts so looks like some lastminute.com testing as usual despite 2+ years of building the damn thing!

I said it before Ben, I'm not that far behind you and mine is just a road car.

Just think of the satisfaction you will have when yo do get it all up and running...... Well that's what I keep telling myself.

Need some advice off you Ben, will call you tomorrow.
