The BBWF is becoming a bit of a bore..But i wouldnt want to
upset Mr Wanks organising skills..Mind you if he ever says to me
again "If you think you can do better then you do it" Then i
would probably take him up on it..Id have local models having
wet T shirt comps..Electronic clay pigeon shoot..A hub dyno for
accurate BHP figures..The same models posing for the wedge
calendar..driving simulators with the top gear track for best
lap times..A la carte chiefs preparing the food..I would have a
stall selling good quality oil (Vavoline)..plugs..Filters all at
trade prices..And i would try to sort a local runway out for
some 1/4-1/2 mile run times..and possibly a 2 mile runway to
max out your car on..I would be very fussy as to who i get as
sponsors as some of them just stand there with their hands in
their pockets..I would print the mugs up and T shirts on the day
so that people could have their car on it with a BBWF logo..And
anything else that people wanted...Ziga

Blimey Rob that's great news mate and you have the best guys
looking after you, mines taken longer than thought but Rob has
had a lot to deal with on mine as i've gone down the MS2 route
as well ,also a few things have given up on him eg . Starter,
alternater and fans all of which he has sorted for me . Not sure
if i'll have her back this week depends how Shaun get on with
mapping MS2 but it won't be long now, i tend to get impatient
that's just me though! It will give you something to look
forward to if your going overseas....Are you driving your wedge
down to V8D ?

I decided to go the MS2 route because on the flapper system
there was always a issue with start up so thought while the guys
are doing the engine they can do the MS and since they know how
they have set up the engine they can combine the two and get the
best result = lots of hp/ft lbs torque... Cost wise have a look
on their web site bud... Oh still lot of pops & bangs on the
over run ;D
