Wow that revs like a bike!!

Does it have an exhaust on it? What's the rod ratio on that motor Tony?

cheers

Tony is away with a seatcover at Uncle Bob's big lake. He'll be back soon.

Humping all night long

Borrowed your helmet, did he?

back again.... one of my neighbors commented that she heard it that day and thought it was a bike revving at first.
Got it going again tonday, but too late to do anything cause the people were getting home from work (I live in a block of flats). Lets see what tomorrow brings.... synch carbs, move car and clean garage.... wont drive her just yet, brakes still not ok

You such a girl letting a little thing like brakes stop you....

yes dark lord....

Above was Tesday


So tomorrow is Friday whats happening

Wednesday saw the death and destruction of a elec ignition kit for my 009... so replaced it with a faulty kombi ign setup.

Then pulled the car out and cleaned the garage.... nothing else achieved yet.

Tony.. have you taken your bike... Ummm car for a spin again..

Unfortunately nothing else happened to the car.

While I was home the weather was just way too hot to work on the car. Doing the brakes in 42degC sun isnt my idea of fun.

Unfortunately I have had to get back to work, so I'll only have a chance to do some more work to it in August. Even then tho, the amount of work I have planned probably wont allow me to have it on the road then either... Lets see how things work out.

All the best.. Next time you in Cape Town PM me as I would really like to see your project..
Very interesting thread,,

You should get a project manager,and have the car done like that,otherwise we are never going to see that car running.

Yes bud the DarkSide is going and Tie Fighter is on its way so you got some catch up to do....

Project manager and project engineer is the same person.

I am hoping to have things change next year leave wise... or lets put it this way, I will have more leave next year, paid or unpaid. There are a few things I need to do and I need time for it all.
A few items have been outsourced... pics and info when I have more. But for this again, I need time.
