Right bit of an update on this since it's been a while lol

The fuel system is now done and ready to go. The ATL 45l fuel cell is mounted in the boot and is linked up to a TVR fuel pump that sits right next to it.

The electrics are also more or less done apart from the last couple of bits. Lights all work, the relay and fuse boxes are done and all the first extinguisher system is working.

So basically just need to fabricate mounting brackets for the brakes, finish piping up the engine and have it mapped.

Just having a bit of bother sourcing driveshafts, so if anyone has a pair of 180 driveshafts knocking about let me know!

not far to go now really, so fingers crossed it will be on track this year... once it's thawed out

I thought it was, but it seems to be back outside again for some reason. Think the garage was being painted

thanks guys

unfortunately after this project costing so much (and it's still not finished!) it will be used as much as possible once everything is sorted out and the race engine is back in.

Ultimately I'd love to take it around the 'Ring, but I don't fancy driving all that way with it on a trailer. Then I think the little 45 litre tank would only get me a couple of laps before it needed filled up
