Sean - Sounds like we have a chance to be in Shanghai at the same time. It looks like I'm there the week beginning 11 August, definitely keen to catch-up for a beer!

Sounds good, not bad times, plenty to build on, that's what keeps us coming back. The stream running across the front straight definitely slowed me down!

What wheels did you go for Matt?

"Titanium Tech" (silver) OZ Racing Alleggerita HLT in OEM fitment (18", 8.5J 40 front and 11J 63 rear). Should look like this: http://i60.photobucket.com/albums/h7...ks/24vtgnq.jpg (but silver rather than anthracite).

I ordered 30 Banners to take account of late comers. The combinations are:

Ordered 11 Red font & white background = 1 spare
Steve 2
Dave 1
Peter 2
John 2
Matt 2
Chris 1


Ordered 5 White font and red background = 1 spare
Steve 1
Dave 1
Macca 2

Ordered 11 Red font and black background = all gone
Steve 2
Dave 1
Jamie 2
Michael 2
Doug 2
Chris 1
Peter 1

Ordered 1 Black Font White Background = all gone
Steve 1

Ordered 2 White Font Black Background = all gone
Steve 1
Jason 1

Paul, sorry but unless one of the red font and black background coughs up a spare then you have red on white or white on red to choose from.

Thanks Peter.

Macca, I'll drop yours off at CCS next week, when I pick up my car. I will be there on the 29th a HD for others. Dave can pick his up, no doubt. The rest we'll work out when I have them.

John, that's great news about your car. Hopefully you get it back in time for a quick B-road shakedown before the driver training.

I can pay for the banners whenever you like, and maybe pick them up from you on the 29th?

Michael, there's nothing mechanical that time and money can't fix As the mechanic said to me when I looked at the reassembled engine, "it doesn't look like it, but this engine is as new". It will be interesting to see what it feels like. Of course this isn't the end. I have the suspension etc to sort out, plus fit the ducktail etc. It will be fighting fit for HD on the 29th, but still being sorted out. Hopefully i'll swap with Peter to see what a sorted one feels like.

I'll bring down your banners then and take some cash off you.

I thought my running total had keep me safe from stuff-ups That said, I can see a suggestion on combos but I can't see the order. Steve ordered the black and white combos at the later stage, so I was sure he was the only one.

As you know, there are two spares, the red and white combos. Silver and red go together well. When the banners arrive, I'll put one up against my 996 and post a photo.
