Obviously a hillclimber as that's the right expression for approaching Fallow at Loton.

Congrats!

Mouth open and screaming for a drink, just like Grandpa at the end of a days hillclimbing

Many congrats.

Have just learned my 7yr old Grandson has taken up indoor rock climbing, what it must be like to be fearless.

Any way back to the car, due to work commitments I have been unable to get upto David`s (APi) to see how things are progressing, but the next port of call will be TEG sport and Mr Steve Simpsom, to get the new engine setup and the Launch and anti-lag systems online, then its a shake down at Curborough on the 29 Feb to blow all the cobwebs out.

Had call yesterday, all is well with the new 2.4 engine, after over coming many technical issues it now breaths fire. There is still a long way to go before we are ready for 2012

Loton practice weekend in 3 weeks or less, Loton Easter meet soon, Prescott in April too.

I'm all ready and polished except for fresh tyres which go on next week.
But will it work?

Keep going John.

Sad news I am afraid, the car and its future developments have to take a back seat for the time being due to work commitments, so we wont be out at the start of the season, I would like to take this chance to wish you all good luck for the 2012 season and hope to see you all soon.

John

2012 UPDATE

A number of people have been asking if we are going to run the car on the hills this year, I can comfirm that we will NOT be running the car on the hills this season due to a number of technical issues that were highlighted last year.

But saying that I my self will attend as many events as I can when we are not competing in the 22B sprint series.

I would like to wish all competiors good luck for this season.

Regards,

John
