Got My Kit At Last!!!

Went up to MK today to collect my kit. It was a bit snowey when we set off but soon cleared. Big thanks to all at MK and Mac#1 Motorsport for helping us out with gear and advice. What a great day.

All i have to do now is work out how to put the damn thing together?????

What a great day!!

Welcome to the club!
Life will never be the same.
You'll eat,sleep and dream about your Indy!
You'll bore everyone silly and constantly be saving for the next part.
But so what? when it's finished it will be YOUR car!
GOOD LUCK!
Dean..........

Bob- Sounds good to me! Can i be the club webmaster and bonker of all things female?

John- Wish we could have stayed longer but i had to get over to MAC#1 Motorsport to pick a load of bits up and get back home. We got home at 5:00 which was alot later that i had anticipated but at least i got back! Next time we meet you can try and scare me!!

Note to all: I really don't know when to leave well alone. I tried to get clever with the mods, then when they gave me a lifeline to see the error of my ways, I tried to incite more trouble via u2u. So now I'm banned, never to return again. They should have done it years ago!

MK/Indy "Owners" club - Hmmm In what sense does a 'builder' become an 'owner'?

Depending on the definition of 'owner' this could be either a very elite club, or a club for all the scrapyard owners in the country

Does the possession of an amount of box section steel and a few siezed car parts make you an owner ? In that case I've 'owned' one for years!!!

With all the minor tweaks and adjustments to their cars, does anyone really stop being a builder?

Hi Jim

Ahhhh!! So Sorry i meant to get back to you about the wheels but forgot in all the excitement. I have done a no money deal with a rather top company for some new wheels and tyres. Thanx anyway and sorry it took SO long to get back to you.

Thanks Metal Hippy

Cheers

Andy
