The work I have done is wire in a push-button starter (got rid of the ign barrel to save a few grams), wired up an FIA kill switch and pull cable (for safety), Mounted the headlights and bumper, bled the brakes, mounted the battery and removed the door handles so that I can machine a few more grams from them lol
And had a little play with my mates newly acquired toy :cool: Will use it properly when the car is in one piece and set it up :nod:

Ohhhhh, love the fancy scales. I could do with a set of those. The car is looking mean. You need to get your ass in gear though me thinks:thumb:
Good work mate. cars looking well.
Wide wings dont look as bad as i thought they would tbh. Thought they may just kill the car. But looking at those pics they dont. Liking the front brake setup. possibly something i need to look into shortly as well. Moving is one thing. stopping can be entertaining.
The lights look weirdly cool would u beleive. Especially if the grill is done to suit of course. :P
Anyhow nice work mate. speak soon.
Now that the race car has gone to the nurburgring, I was able to get my car out and have a play today. My goodness I've missed it, the noise the bumps the bangs, its brilliant!

I bought approx twenty ponies from Broster today, 288deg Newman cams. This should bring me down below 13.5 on the quarter and deep into the 4's 0-60 :D

And some weight saving, of course. The drilled handles seemed a bit weighty, so i filed them out hehe.
