Been a bit out of touch, Rich (we are currently sunning ourselves overlooking the Bay of Fires in Tasmania!) - did you sell it because you've got the new toy (Jag) ?

Bang goes the run out we were going to do together for the last couple of years!

Still, if you ever get 'se7en sick' I could always pick you up for a run in mine?

I miss my Viento... There have been a few days recently when I could have been out for a drive in it.

But not quite nice enough to go out on the Harley though.
Still... got my riding course booked with the local police next month.
I definately need the tuition as not ridden a bike for 40 years

All good fun..






1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Best Regards
Geoff

Rest assured it went to a good home - Tom is a good friend of mine, and we've done a few Nurburgring / Alps trips together in our tins tops.

I have a Blackbird powered Formula 27, so will be really interesting to compare the two side by side, and I'm sure there will be plenty of trips / trackdays done together over the coming months / years, so I'll make sure to get photos up so you can keep checking in with it. Looks like a great car from what I've seen.





SOLD - F27 Blackbird, F27 ZZR1400, MK Indy Hayabusa, 3 750MC Crossflow Locosts, Ultima GTR - currently got a MX5 powered Locost racing car
