Mince Pies and Stuff
Luego Sports Cars - 1/12/04 at 04:42 PM

Hi Guys.

Just a little reminder that we are having a Mince pie day this Saturday 4th Dec 2004.

We are also going to combine a sale of all the stock we have accumulated over the year at discounted prices.

We will have GRP, Exhausts, Shocks, Wishbones, Roll bars, Chrome trims etc.

Best Regards The Luego Team.

Dont worry I am coming.. Cant miss out on a Mince Pie... as long as all the others dont start singing "who ate all the pies".

I also need to get the Sierra Hub tapers honed, so will bring them along.

I may even relieve you of some of those overstocked parts you have.

You can use a bit of hose pipe, and listen to each inlet one at a time, and adjust for equal "HISS" . Its laborious, but may get it a bit better.. until you can get the proper tool...

Nice to meet you today. and Nice motor...

Shame I didn't see this sooner, I'dve given you directions to my workplace and we could've had a crack at balancing it all up, bugger! If you don't mind the trip you can bring it round to my house and we'll have a go. I'm no expert by any means but I managed to get my mates twin 45 Dellortos on his Esprit much better balanced (didn't take a lot of skill mind, they were horrendously out of balance).

P.S. anybody got the lates Practical Performance Car? In the Luego build-up they've got it to driveable status and it describes 'glamour boy Grant' taking it for it's initial spin. Glamour boy? They must've met some other bloke called Grant I think
