Greetings to all.
Yep sorry I have been a bit pushed just of late.
Hopefully I should now be in apossition in the next few days to send out the LONG promised news letter as I now seem to have a fully funtioning
email.
Re Stafford, I have sent of booking in request to Den Tanner (quite some time ago), but, other than an official advertising blurb (which does mention
the Luego Owners Club), I have received NO notifiction of pitch placement etc.
I believe that there are going to be a few notable absentees this year at Stafford due to early over winter work, clashes with other shows, mechanical
problems. However there are also a few new on the road cars for which this could be the first show. To All that do go lets have a good one.
I should be attending, unless it is abolutely piddling it down, but probably only for the Saturday (due to work commitments), so consequently I shall
not be bringing barbie or tent etc.
Further and this is important, I am canceling the need for special dress code at this show and postponing it to the Stonleigh Show as I think that
will have a much better outcome. Full details of this WILL be outlined and explained in the news letter.

Cant make it, too much on with my sons and Uni etc.
Also got a rad leak on the Viento... again.
And the Volvo's Lambda Sensor has just packed up.
Sorry Lads
1. The point of a journey is not to arrive.
2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Decided to give Stafford a miss this year. The kit car has not left the Garage more that once in the last 2 months despite having 6 weeks off work
over the summer. I just don’t seem to have the enthusiasm to do any work on it at the moment. I also have a half built Mini engine sat on the bench
with all the parts cleaned and ready to finish it off.
Should get paid some money I am owed next week ( 5 months over due from work ) so I am hoping that the purchase of a megasuirt ecu will kick start me
into getting the car back on the road.
The Big plan is to be ready for Stoneleigh next year running a customised thor manifold and bike throttle bodies. Got most of the parts just need to
get started.
See you all at Stoneleigh
Paul
ps - lest hope I get a good wind in the sails

I was Planning........
I was planning to go to the Stafford Show to see some fully built Viento's!!!!. I.e to pick the brains of owners and take some informative
photos of what I am hoping to build.
But it looks like to me there won't be any Vientos to look at
Anyone at Stafford???????? My Girlfriend would leap at the chance not to go I think!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep, Snuggs is there, I was there on Saturday, but Clive (Snuggs, 4.0l V8) will still be there on Sunday. Just don't ask about the
Girraffe's.

Too true, at least I will be able to touch it up if needed , a mate mixed me up some brushable paint last year that I used on the wishbones that
seems to be weathering OK, goes on easily and dries as good at the powder coating
