all this sun makes me want to get my car on the road. instead im stuck in uni 200 miles form my car revising.
oh well... there is light at the end of the tunnel as they say - last exam tomorrow, then i am (hopefully) a fully qualified aeronautical engineer!

cant wait to get home on wed to see my little car again - first job is to sort out the cooling, then the interior and lights.

I feel for you mate, I'm stuck at uni in Bath, 120 miles from my car, writing my final project about chassis dynamometer variabi...zzzzzz. Sorry, that happens every time I think about it.

I don't finish until the end of June Planning to go home next weekend though, I'm desperate for a drive!

Good luck with your exam tomorrow!

Yep - I'm sweating buckets putting the finishing touches to the engine installation.

Taxed it yesterday so if I get it fired up, the only thing stopping me going out for a blast and tuning session is a lack of fuel tank

Might have to have a go at bodging a return line into the old one.

Well, I had a great run this morning - went to get some spark plugs, petrol & fish food - about 20 miles. It's all go!

I'm starting to use full revs now the engine's run in - my, doesn't the car accelerate well!

Interesting to see the reaction of other drivers... surprising how many make an effort to get out of the way.

rgds,
David
