to this….

Cookies car in fresh paint

after a does of magic in the College of North West London’s Paint and Body repair centre.. thanks for their ongoing support of the series in helping us get cars painted. The car has now been transported back to the workshop for final pre-race prep.. so we hope to see him out on the track shortly… (With a 1600cc motor initially.. he has a 1914cc in the pipeline.. but is just keen to get out)

Nick ‘The Vicar’ has his car in the bodyshop as I type and we are due to collect his this Friday (in a bright Diablo Red!) then it’ll be the case of bolting everything back in, and doing the pre-race prep to get through scrutineering (Nick will be running a 1641cc ex-cup engine initially - albiet with twin 40’s etc.. but he has a 2332cc sat in the corner ready to put in at some point!)

Phil (of Perftec fame.. you have probably seen him at many VW shows over the years selling his great range of clothing) has just picked up an ex-cup car and is feverishly working to bring it up todate and out on the track ASAP… (it has been stored in a Barn for years - which at some point had a fire - no damage to the car.. but he thought it was painted black… until he noticed it was a dense layer of soot! - the car is yellow LoL!!!) His plan is to get it out ASAP (the next race hopefully) to shake it down a bit.. then give it a fresh paint scheme for next season. (He too will be running a 1641cc initially)
