I jest of course, brilliant work there Alan and a true testiment to your abilities and dedication to the RB! I bet the mpg will go up a bit too so you have no reason to sell it off now
Thank you Luke,

There was a time yesterday evening when the RB was running very poorly due to the leaking exhaust joint when I thought: if I can't sort this out I'll just give it to Luke so he can turbocharge it, slam it to the ground and fit undercar lighting :-).

The RB is now running about as it would have when only 10 years old (in 1990) - I'm pretty happy with that, I have no intention whatsoever of restoring the motor car, but keeping it in 'about 1990' condition is fine.

Take care,

Alan
