TMS - I cannot make 2 weeks from today, so maybe we do it 3 weeks from today? How is that?
Pics & Vid clip will be posted up as soon as i get home today.

If jim allows me to reveal a particular clip i will

And a few pics of JIM's NEW CATCH CAN

The clock might but that video isn't at the mo!

p.s. I like the extreme weight saving which even included taking all the keys off the ignition key. Did you remember to take the change out of your pockets as well (-sorry thats a joke we used to have about the **** detail manufacturers go to to save 20 grams-)
