Yeah it'll be rolling roaded for setting up the ECU so will get some figures from that.

Do you want some polycarbonate windows? I think they've just allowed them in the combe saloons. Check our site out, we dont yet have templates but we could do them off your windows.

The 'bodies look well cool!! Like them very much!

Andy, you have actually had apart to play in this car....not so much the giving, though more like the taking of...the gearbox. way back when. seems like forever ago now.

Keep up the good work Dave.

Cheers

Well we got everything ready pretty much but mapping was foiled by a dodgy crank sensor so couldn't map it on the standalone ecu without it so that was that. However I had a phone call Monday morning and was greeted by this...

Basterds! Cant belive they jacked it up with a fork lift! Did they steal anything from inside?

So unfortunate... where was it parked? any cctv, surely if there was a pump-truck there it must be industrial with security.

Thanks everyone

no cctv watching the area they came in (completely unexpected that someone would come up over that wall due to the way it is). However more will be installed now I think lol

I think they smashed the window just to open the boot because I had the cover tucked inside the boot, they didnt touch anything inside though.
