Looking ace as usual Andy. How long till you get the Beetle down to pod then? I need to know what time i'm chasing. Can't believe how it started when you got it, just looks like a different car now. ;D I've never seen the new arrival with its wheels on either! lol. I'm sure your make rapid progress on it though like usual!

Not super quick but i got a 14.9 on my 4th run, had loads of wheel spin, hoping to be much quicker nest time when i have tweeked a few things as the car is still running a low AFR, rolling road on the 8th so that should sort that. Im on the look out for some slicks for the old girl that will help the wheel spin, Also think that i need to solid mount the transmission and fit coil overs to stop the wheel hop other than that im still buzzin. Nice to meet some of you over the weekend see you soon Andy

beetle looks awesome ... weird because on beetles and other aircooled dubs alot of people seem to add EFI, wheras on injection mini people seem to do whatever thay can to go the other way back to webers and SU carbs lol... maybe people just want what they havnt got lol
