I like to think I'm giving some Chinese bloke some overtime Si  :signLOL:

Did you get your DV sorted, saw the split one, explains your loss of power,  Phil says you've got a Pre-Season shakedown @ Silverstone in March  :happy2:

DV & lamba sensors have sorted the problem I had at Donny, no torque & 40 horses grazing at midlands airport. With no power Phil could only get passed by pushing me off track  :signLOL:

Its the first time I've heard of testing at Silverstone in March, I'll pinch his leg at the awards party in January :wink:

Thats mental. I got given the magazine you featured in when I bought my Eddy, got me looking at mods. Never got round to it and had to sell up  :sad1:

I went to pick up a car from ALD Automotives in Milton Keynes and that magazine is still on the stands there.

Managed to get a drive in a 335i and that was just amazing, loved the sound. Only got to drive it from Porsche to my work which is only about 5 miles. Very nice motors you have  :happy2:

I have cut and fitted some 1mm thick, 2/2 Twill Carbon sheets to tidy up the rear (carbonmods.co.uk).

Big thanks to gazbutS3 for getting me some flush fitting screw caps and reminding me of Rivnut fixings  :happy2:

Managed to do it with 3 no 950mm x 500mm panels although not all the weave is in the same direction, and backed the panels with Neoprene sponge to avoid squeak/rattle.


 



















If any one else has OCD, likes carbon dust, enjoys working in a fridge, wants the templates  :happy2:

Your car is quickly becoming a work of art as well as a weapon on track. Loving your work Neil :notworthy:

Needs to go on an inside stand at Ultimate Dubs as a prime example of "how to do things right" :happy2:
