Lovely colour too, Mark. And at least people will see you better in the daylight.

Long time since we last met Mark.

Sorry to hear of what happened to the last one, the replacement sounds rather nice though .

Have you still got the rather quick truck

Not tempted to put your (temporary) replacement on a rolling road, Jim?

Just had it confirmed that you will get 3 dyno runs and a printout with all 3 on.

There is a waiting room with a coffee machine too.

If this is at the end of the (or a) month, I'd travel down! I really want to see what mines running after seeing some of the other 177 upgrades come out with good results!

It`s a Ford Lightning SVT 5.4 litre supercharged, chipped and modded, 11.97 secs down the santa pod quarter mile, not bad for a rear wheel drive pick up weighing 2500 pounds
