Hi guys,
I'm really looking forward to meeting you on the 11th August. I can't wait to get my car fettled. Exciting times!
Can I add tracking to the list, if you offer it?
Thanks Paul

He doesn't do tracking however he sends everyone down to The Wheel Alignment Centre in Southampton. He charge about £40 for a full set up which is crazy cheap and he knows his onions. He walls are covered in photos of all the race cars and super cars he's set up. He also has a fast road set up for MX5s developed with Skuzzle.

Cool, thanks. My local ProTyre place charges about double that.

I think I paid 120 quid for 4-wheel laser alignment last time!

What a hassle of a day! Parts late, parts not arriving, frantic searching for alternatives, sat nav issues, getting lost, a very long drive. Meh!! Then things looked much better. Winchester is lovely. I then got to meet the Scuzzles - nice friendly guys. Unfortunately things then took a turn for the worse. I laid eyes on their "bathroom". Visualise the Trainspotting toilet with an MX5 engine in bits on the floor.  |

Yep! Even though its only the initial basics: Racing Beat air intake, manifold, full exhaust, cat. Plus GGP dampers, low-pro headlamps, full service and check up. It is none the less a very good start.
I forgot to ask about maybe adjusting the timing. I'll give them a bell on monday.
Then I need to save some pennies for a mohair hood, snap off steering wheel boss, new nardo wheel, new door speakers.
Then the big stuff will have to wait until later on: engine tuning, roddison pads, chassis bracing.
