Haha, I can't wait to post a thread in a similar vein but I think it's not going to be until the beginning of 2012 sadly!

What's the spec of your car and do you have any pics?

Sean -- how do you get smoke out of the left wheel when she's sitting pretty and still like that. That's a cool trick bow

And how do you drive it with the steering wheel on the wrong side?

Steering wheel is opposite the exhaust, as God and Colin Chapman intended. smile Works well that way here in California.
The "smoke" is actually a puddle of water, but you probably knew that already.

edit --
Steve-B: thanks for organizing the USA 2005 HTWWD tour. While I could not participate in the tour, it enabled me to see a variety of Sevens all at the same time at Infineon Raceway Sears Point so that I could make a more informed decision when I did buy my Seven. This would have been otherwise impossible without a trip to England. Also, it was good to meet you that day. Cheers!

Another photo (God, I love this car!):
