Here we are having a team meeting.

Spencer told me that all the great racing car company's in the world have team meeting to discuss tactics and strategies .

So we had a meeting.

All we seemed to agree on was we don't need team meetings!!

Oh and our other business is also doing well and we now have 2 tyre fitting van on the road.

Well its been quite a day today.

We have fired-up the engine in zoom zoom for the first time and put a short video on here for you all to see.

Spencer and myself are highly flammable so we had the use of a couple of monkeys for the day to help us.

As you can see in the video the big monkey was starting the car and the smaller monkey was working his mobile phone to record it.(sorry for the poor quality, and the video beening sideways but you just can't get the quality of monkey these days!!)

We had just the engine without the radiator/alternator/and all the other stuff fitted so could only run it for 25 seconds or so.

It went great and sounds like a very fast engine indeed!!!

Hi all
Spencer and myself have had a great time at a drift event in the car park at Wembley stadium.
Here you can see our tyre fitting van in the pits just outside the stadium, we were changing tyres all day for the people racing in the drift event.
Some drivers could wear out a set of rear tyres in about 10 minutes so we were very busy all day.

Spencer had a go of course and managed to finish last of all. This is him with smoke pouring off the rear tyres

Hi all

We have been very busy at work but have still managed to do a little work on the car.

It is now at the rolling chassis stage and the fuel tank is fitted.

All the wheels will have to come off again, at the front the brakes need to be fitted and the suspension setup correctly. At the rear the drive shafts need new boots and the brake back plates need cleaning and the shoes, cylinders and drums need to be fitted.

The reason the suspension has been fitted is to allow the engine/gearbox to be installed.

As soon as this is done all the other parts can be fitted around the engine bay, and the steering shaft made up.
