as u prob know the jag corsa has benn idling paticualrty high = 3.5-4k revs so its hardly been drivable for the last month or so! was getting worried bout western wheels this weekend but beardy came up tonight from manchester with his mate(sorry cant remember your name) while i was at work and sorted the car out so its drivable now! also would not take anymore money than to cover there petrol and a kfc on there way home - lol
also after they left my place - bout half 9 were off to liverpool to help someone else out! thats dedication for u! one lad was working at 6 also! mad
so happy now, been hard day at work and just parked the car back away in its garage and its running nice, dam forgot how loud the exhaust really is tho, spitting flames nicely also!
the car will be at western wheels and trax now! buzzing

this is a thought that crossed my mind.... if a car a shed loads of filler... i presume the jag corsa is one although i could be wrong.... but would it not just start cracking and falling off with the viberations of traveling on the road

glad your happy mate 
the other Lad is Chris who works along side me and helps me build cars (he has the other Black BAT corsa)
i did promise u i would have it running right for you before your show 
traviled 150miles there and back but this post is the reason why i would do it, as i know how much it means to just to spend a few hours with somone and helping them, a thanx and meaning it means alot.
this is the reason i will not be fitting engine anymore for £££ i would rather spend time and let the car owner fit the engine and me tell them what to do, that way they get to learn.
Comming soon Jag Corsas new engine bay look after a good tidy up, not calling the other mans work but i think its a joined effort of Izac and Kev with the messy engine bay which on the jap is not needed 
the other car on the way home was Kerion Mclow's 2.1 on throttle bodys the brown one, was worryed about a noise
ended up getting in at 1am 
i had work at 7 and chris at 6

Beardy and Lee Mitchell are the best members of this board.
They deserve a swift BJ in a cupboard from a homosexual member of CS.
