Southend airshow this w/e
Went last year , and it was a good day (didn't rain like normal) , but this year no Red Arrows due to their earlier crash back in March , so not sure if I'll fight my way there this year, though the Eurofihjter Typhoon was awsome

but hey the big man he say yes. In for a penny in for a pound.
fuel rails and APS stealth DR FMIC look the nuts.
bagged a RCM reversed carbon scoop for half price when all fitted.
going to look at placing the battery in the boot. ditching the AC and using the carl davey alternater bracket. it looks sweet.
6 speed clutch to go in aswell.
went to image works to quote on placing some dry carbon on the carbon bonnet and to put some on the front section of my bumper...
its quite thick with good lipping. So if the troll hits the front again it should be ok....
with all that i should be able to keep up the rear of you and darcy..

I was in the garden when I saw the Catalina slowly wending it's way home to Duxford yesterday afternoon. Heard it coming from what seemed like miles away.
