Looks great Patrick I like the stipe around the nose cone.

Looks very business-like...nice! Have you had it out at ruapuna lately?

[bzrse7en]

Hi and thanks for the positive coments. Yea, I am happy with the nose stripe, similar to most, but a little different, I had considered the stripe running the length of the car, but couldn't be bothered etch priming the alloy, and I wanted more than just the lips, so here's the compromise.

No, I haven't been out to Ruapuna for a while, not since changing over to the Megasquirt in January. Work has been busy and all the other things. The reg is on hold for another month and for some reason the Megasquirt is running like a pig - I changed something before winter, but now cannot recall what it was - Bugger!
I am hopefull the MS will give me a few more Hp and I have re-jigged the rear wheel alignment, so am keen to see what it is now like out there.

Let me know when you are going out again... I would like to do a few laps with another 7...

[bzrse7en]

Will do
On a different note, didn't you have a set of corner scales?

Patrick

[7ish]

I borrowed them from a friend... I plan to get them back soon and have another go at my car since I have changed the diff etc. I thought I would see if the owner minds if I invite a few others over to play with them... maybe for a small gratuity..
Will let you know.

Hi Patrick I just notice the detail on your grill BZ7R which looks great.

Evan if you get the corner weights again I would be keen when my cars finished.
