Left it open on my 2nd monitor most of the day - all I saw was 5-6 lads hanging out at the fence..

Wasn't working earlier - but its working ok at the moment.

Something that I will have to do in the next couple of years is to make a "pilgrimage" to the Ring.

Yeah - I wouldn't mind going either - Having said that though the FTO needs to be slightly more sorted before I take her across to the continent..

Was actually planing on driving to denmark this summer - alas slightly unplanned spain trip ruined that..

That looks like a picture of one of the UK Owners club cars - "CAT" I think - he has quite a track focused FTO - along with that vent in the bonnet over the intake.
