What a nice day
It's nice and sunny here in suffolk
just been out for a drive and i've got a huge smile on my face.
it was a bit cold in the occasional fog bank i came across but on the whole a wonnnnnnderful drive
just getting used to the handling and the power.... fourth gear is a very useful gear, third has ludicrouse acceleration and i could get into
serious trouble with that one on the country lanes brakes need getting used to but are effective.
passing cars is a breaze
all the troubles are forgotten and it makes the build so so worth while even the problems at work go (i work for a house builder ) they just
float a way on a wave of adrenalin...

get out there and drive lads, those still building stick with it and once done life will be fun fun fun

it was such a nice day i went out to pick the boy up again. the A12 was blocked at stratford St Mary so i went back by ardley and then dedham,
maningtree and great bentley
what a good run. i'm getting more confident in its cornering ability and this route was more a 3rd gear drive blistering, the old
pintosaurus is loosening up nicely and i cant wait to get it on a rolling road, and see what power it's realy putting out. it's well onto
the 4 seconds to 60.
just lov'n it
may go out again and use up the second tank of the day
jonno was the car all black with black wheels and 2 occupants, if it was then that will be me. last time i went through colchester on a day like
today i saw 4 7's. today none.
happy driving
ditch
On a real high today

I went out earlier and had a good blast. Went down a nice piece of road and not another car in sight so managed to open her up a bit.
Went out again this afternoon and the passenger side wing stay broke again had to phone the missus to bring some allen keys out so I could
take it off to get home, luckily I wasn't far away.
Back to the drawing board on the MNR brackets, they keep breaking through below the weld.
