Solid 9's is the target for me Clive. No flat shift, as using dog box, and dont fancy changing it on the limiter!
Replacement input shaft is en route from Australia as we speak!

What ever you guys pledge to get me to wear something, I'll pay more, so I don't have to 
However, if it gets too high, I may just change my mind and wear it
New custom shaft was shipped yesterday, and should arrive early next week. Then Paul at Zen will be making sure it all goes back together again.

Adam,
It will go on track too, but we have some goals we'd like to meet on the drag strip first. We'll give it a go on the track at the Scooby Shootout, but I think it's going to be hard to get a good result, as it's had exactly ZERO driving time, outside of the few 1/4 mile runs it's done so far !
But I know all concerned will do their best to make it go around a few corners

Hilarious Steve
This would be my personal choice of charity, as they helped my cousin so much when she was 13 and spent 18 months in St James Hospital. She is now 34.

Nice write up Steven I can fully relate to your frustration getting so close to a 9. My car was a similar spec back in 2005 when i was running 10.0-10.1 and just when it looked like it wasnt going to happen, it dropped right in at 9.8
Now I just want that same little step again !! So i've just been out on the back roads setting up the 2.8bar map..........hmmm why are my knees all wobbly lol
