Hi all

This my current race car project:

Purchased the car from Chris at MX5 Racing as pictured below:

Good car, with some good bits.

The car will be an SP replica race car and will be running by June:

This is the pictures so far:

The Final image shows how busy it is under my house with 2 more MX5's
Kermit my na race car and my wife's standard Australian delivered Na (thats now for sale :mrgreen:

They are getting thin on the ground so best to act now if you planning this.

Hi All and John

Thanks for the promt on updating the post.

The car is about 90% complete and should be started in the coming weeks so yes I have missed the June start up. I would have finished sooner if not for some more help from my co-driver :evil:

Looking good Neil but you may want to remove that plastic from the air cleaner :shock:

Yeah. It IS looking good, Neil. But the co-driver might feel a tad impaled. Or is that the intention............

Guess who's now got the bug? And who do I blame, Neil????

John there is no point owning an mx5 and taking it out on the track. :lol:

I'll have to take you for a run in the new car when I've got it sorted.

Heard of a phone? Must pick it up and call when working on it. Did you get out of bed yesterday and take those?

Blues · Postby **Blues** » Mon Jun 30, 2008 11:23 am

Is that \"and NOT taking it out on the track\"??

Must be the broken sleep patterns getting to you.

Would love a run. Have done a few things to mine. Any suggestions on how to improve breathing in an NC?
