Yep, it is hard to admit, but the time has come for me to move on and start a new project. I'm following LuckyP's path except in the Spec Miata world. The GTR is an absolutely amazing car and is undoubtedly the fastest car I'll ever drive. The LS7, G50/52 combo provides endless smiles.

Out of respect for the man I bought the kit from, I have called him to give him first shot at buying it back. He has expressed interest in doing this on many occasions as I was building the GTR. I talked to him today and he seemed genuinely interested and I should hear from him soon with his decision.

Wish me luck,
Paul

Sorry to hear this bro, I am tuning my new GTR 730 as we speak. Should be ready tomorrow.

Good luck on your sale. What are you asking?

Good luck with the sale Paul.

You are right, we'll probably never set foot in anything so quick. But as soon as you get buckled in with 20 odd other guys all diving for the same corner it puts quick cars and mega buck into perspective.

Just had to google what you were refering to - I think we call it the MX5 Challenge.

Is this what you'll be doing then?: Oh Lordie!!! silly

Looks like a lot of fun. I'll have a closer look at the regs later.

Check the very last few seconds of the video.

There's the mark of a true racer...steering wheel comes of in his hands and he doesn't even lift.
