If you haven't got any of the foam then let me know.
I think I have some left from a previous (and somewhat dramatic) seat making session.

Always makes for an entertaining event!

Yes, warming.

I don't mind the weeing in the wetsuit feeling, but when the bags burst it gets very messy very quickly.

Weeed (spelling?) in wetsuits plenty of times windsurfing. Trouble was that with a tightly strapped harness in place the pee could not get down your legs so you wound up with a somewhat pregnant look.

Regarding splitting bags while using two part foam I expect you have read about the guy doing likewise in a canoe - see half way down this page http://www.diyfaq.org.uk/humour.html

Adrian

Getting back to your query on the number of J15s on the road. Speaking to JP last week he believes mine is the second after his own. Anyone know differently?

Wasn't there a Black & Gold (JPS colours) which was IVAed? I know Jon Regan's green car has been IVA ready for some time.

Rob, yes back and very cold on Saturday!

Jeff, now you mention it I recall seeing the JPS car at Race Retro in early 2011 on the Chester Sports car stand so I am sure that is on the road. I also saw John Regan's car at Race Car Live at Brands in November 2009, not sure what happened to that one.

Jon's car is in a garage in Kent still. Domestic issues have caused a delay on that one.

It is interesting that there is so few cars in build or completed, I would guess less than 20 kits in 3-4 years? Steve at Fury Sportscars was telling me there have been 900 Fury kits build in the Fisher/KCW/BGH/Fury era.

That would be in the ' boom ' years but since 2007 money hasn't been ' washing ' around and I doubt many Fury's were built/completed during these last few years ----- it was since 2007 the Stylus (buried in Wales) stopped being manufactured :(
