1st trip up the road......

I'm taking the vid and Desyboy is driving the car.

Enjoy

Here is a pic of the car. It is red but the sun and the fact i turned up the brightness when optimisoing the image makes it look orange.

When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.

He he.. No it's not me driving as i was holding the camers. It's my mate Dez who is on this board as he is building an R1 Indy. He was helping with setting up the carb which we have found out is no use as it's chucking far too much fuel down into the engine. Another carb is on it's way so it should hopefully run better.
