I think your white balance is slightly out, maybe you haven't compensated enough for the sodium lights

Looks good Jim, when are you going to let Ricky fettle with it for you

Looks good....and goes even better

It was a pleasure to map - engine sounds really quiet through the det cans, and feels strong. - Enjoy!

Ricky lines up his next victim

At least I am now relatively safe, although I do have a job for Ricky when I fit my interior, and it even involves power tools

I reckon this car will hold it's own against some of the higher powered newages - It'll be interesting to see what it can do...

Super short gearing, and linear power delivery makes it a B-Road animal
