Default Not Yet,

HI Alffie,
Not yet, but should be soon though.

I would not expect to do anything with it for a few months though, as I do not want to pull the car apart for a while.

Don't wait for me I would suggest you fit one as well, expecially at the point you are in your build.

Phil

Default Too much to do

HI Alffie,
I have made a bit more progress but have put it off untill after the nationals.

It is a little bit bigger than I was hoping and I have a small mod to do to the chassis to get the center in.

Phil

Default Lame effort

HI Alffie,
I didn't really get a chance to get a good run at the nationals this year so The diff is in perfect condition.

The Au rear is not to bad arround the race track, it is at the drags where it shows its weekness.

Phil

Default Time Flies

HI Alffie,
I haven't yet and when I see the date we started sl of this it was a shock.

We have moved house since then and I don't have a work shop, and I have been instructed not to use the garage under the main roof as one.

My shed is almost finished and I will get stuck into it soon.

Phil
