There are two coming up on consecutive days, one in bodmin and one at Ashburton motor Works, 2nd and 1st.
I'm going to try and get to both unless work comes up with a job over that weekend. would be really good to get a good turn out at both. Lee knows more about the one in bodmin, I think its on facebook somewhere.

Cleaned the car today ready for mapping tomorrow... wonder if Martyn J will even notice, after its been driven 2hrs to plymouth lol

Yes I am and selfless. And she is SO cynical too, for my birthday I got some new polish for the car, had a spare hour last night so said I'd do the car. Came back in shes says "hows your car looking?" my reply " I polished your car" the response to that being "You really want some new wheels, don't you?" well, what to say to that?!?!

Made an email complaint to the company that made my exhaust and got a call from them today, apparently its normal for it to be throwing its exhaust wadding out of the backbox, told me that i should expect that at the power level i was after..... hmmmm I told him to call my mapper and then get back to me.

Terry is it a true 3inch backbox, if so what power are you running? how noisey is it? and Do you have any pics of it fitted?

I'm not really in a great rush, but dont mind sending you £s and get them when we both have free time, I know your working flat out at the mo. I'll be at scoobybits this morning sorting through the pile of bits that was my legacy and think we're going to truro this afternoon.
