Nice to be outside ..... quick shot outside, before loading up in the trailer, on route for chassis baselining.

Not sure if this video will work or not.... 1st engine fire up, still plenty to do engine wise, such as, only running in 8 Injectors, set lash, play with timing & fuel, but an encouraging start.

Has the wheelbase been stretched Mark? Might just be the angle the photo's been taken at but the rear wheels look to be sitting further back?

Blue,
No intentional stretching of the wheelbase, so stock, give or take an inch...

I wanted to add an access panel, to make it easier to disconnect front end electrics..... Now waiting for some structural adhesive, so I can bond the carbon & gills, also finalise latching method.

More labour intensive, but enjoy just using hand tools, skills gained over the years.
