Morning Mr Clutch chaps!

Just thought I would ask if you are likely to make it to the Lodge tomorrow night as it looks like we will have the whole of Team ESC there!

I'm sure there will be one or two or even five of them who'd like to buy you a drink!!

Hope you can make it!

That's great news. Thanks to all the guys & gals that are putting so much effort & enthusiasm into this race car.

On a more serious note there is some concern that secret spy shots of the ESC entry are circulating on the net.

We may have to tighten up on security.

Perhaps have one of Gooners dogs on guard duty around the perimeter.

Only to be CLICKed if you have the appropriate security access level to Phase 2

Only to be CLICKed if you have the appropriate security access level to Phase 3

Who leaked them? They never said you couldnt have extra engines just the original had to be of the same type/size as origianl.

Awww Thanks! You've made me blush

But to be honest all I have done is try to keep a check on what you guys are (or rather aren't) spending!! Women are good at that, though we aren't quite so good at telling you what we spend!!

Seriuosly, Ark will tell you that I am really pleased to be involved in this little project - as is he - and to be honest we are really looking forward to the whole weekend!

We were saying on the way home last night how much fun we are having as Scooby owners, and already feel like we've known some of you for much more than the 4 or 5 months it's been!


Oh, and guess where we went last night.........?



I think the real praise ought to be showered on these guys as without their help we would be alot further behind, with very oily hands!

We called in last night before the Lodge, and as expected, we got a really warm welcome.

These guys are flat out with work, yet they have still found time to help out Team ESC.



Also, as we have seen on many other threads, if anyone has a problem, however busy they are, they will always accomodate another ESC member & offer their full help.

These guys are legends - THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!



The car is looking great, and for all those who have been waiting to see it here is a sneak preview..................


Here's Ark picking it up......................literally



and here's how she's looking so far.............



Well Ark did say I could design the exterior!!


and did someone say there was a Budgie out there to chase...............
meet our Star Driver!




Well you wern't really expecting to see the Lean, Mean ESC Racing Machine just yet, were you?

No need to be secretive, we told Budgie all our secrets last Sat at ESC HQ.
Hope he was sober enough to remember?
If not here's a few reminders;

Add loads of weight, especially at the back to aid traction.
Use near bald tyes as they work like slicks
Use really high tyre pressues, so the tyre tread opens.
block the front grill to stop the dust getting in.
don't worry about having working brakes you never use them.
And lastly, don't worry about moving over for the ESC car, we will be far too slow to catch the flying MSOC cars.

Hi Tony
It`s all happening just squeezing another 25 hp out the engine to go with the hundreds you had already got it up to.
