Hershal - I will be at the AGP in Melbourne with a couple of mates (I think it is on for March 3-6), & I think Bill Bayard might also be here in Oz at around that time - so we'll all have to catch up.

Any other starters for the AGP ?

Bill - my head has now returned to normal size & I still can't fit in comfortably !! I just have the RF seats bolted straight down on the floor, so it will be "dropped floors" or lower seats. I am playing around with some old DRB seat shells to see what is best.

Pete - those suspension bits came up beautifully. I had most of mine done (some by HPC & some by Jet-Hot) but they have got so crappy since then that I had forgotten how good that finish can look. A tube of metal polish & a few hours work should fix them up. I think that the HPC guys give things a good polish/buff before shipping, but that the Jet-Hot people just ship the stuff out of the oven (some work with the metal polish generally brings it up to the HPC standard).

Those windows look nice & neat - its amazing what laser cutting can do (imagine trying to do them manually) !

Re the RTA tests - thanks - but I can't say it was fun ! With regard to the emissions & QLD, I suspect that PR will be the "crash test dummy" on that one - his own car has much the same setup as ours, & has been ready for testing / approval for a while. It will be interesting to see what QT say, given their lack of testing facilities.

Kind Regards,

Peter D.
