Oh yes!

I'm currently working all the hours I can get and I've been using the shortest, most economical route to work. The Midas is throwing a spanner into that particular plan.

Hey we're back!

That's great Rich. My car is still waiting for new gears for the speedo. It's still jacked including the engine since I had to remove an engine mount. When that's done I'll do the sill deflection measurements.

Yes it will be interesting to see the results of the deflection.

Anyone care to bend the screen back at the A panel. The racing and development guys at TVR were particularly interested how that performed on my convertible.

Cheers,
