Yes, should be back together for the 14th. Might even be the first real run.

Good stuff. Don't think the RangeRover would be good around there.

I've booked last min for Cadwell tomorrow. Repaired the exhaust this morning where the lambda bung had snapped off last time it was used in OCT.Then thought I'd better fire it up... NOTHING! Fecking battery is flat. Only the second time in 8 years it's not started!

I would have agreed with you but after today I'm starting to think it's doing it on purpose. Exhaust snapped again and in a different place to either the previous break or where I'd repaired the lambda mount.

Pedal box is in, needs the new steering column and the electric/electronics doing next.
