Sorry to hear that Baz. Were you in the car or pedestrian? Either way, hope you get well soon.

Thanks for sharing the pics. Looks very good and a huge effort to be doing so much of the work yourself. Good on you!

Thanks for the concern Don i was in my new van, ive been contemplating mothballing the whole project as i tried to do some bits today and it was to much on my own i might need some more time but what ever i decide im still keeping the ST205 even if i have to save to pay someone else to finish it or find some help but its unlikely i will see any track action in the near future unless i can get a new spine or morphine lol....

Just give it a bit of time m8, Joey Foster former Formula Ford 1600 champ broke his back twice in a Formula 3 and a sports car crash and is back racing again after having his verebrae fused. Same with Ant Davidson after he broke his back in the Toyota prototype crash at Le Mans in June. Its amazing what can be done these days.

Hello mate, The workshop is located at the end of the A3 M27-A27 area so pretty central 2300sqft plus a small mezanine floor going to start moving all the gear in as soon as the old tenant has moved out,he has to be out by thursday the 1st, i actually went to see a unit ,got talking to the owner of another unit, got outbid on the one i originally went to see,so it turned out we got the one where i met the owner which is well handy because we bought a bridgport horizontal/vertical milling machine and a bridgport lathe and all the tooling for both he collected over the last 30 years and a ind ac/dc tig welder and ally mig welder a load of metals ally,ss,cds etc so what im saying is, what a bonus it can all stay wired/bolted/stacked in place as i think the combined weight was approx 30 tons and if we moved it and then had to move it back in would have broke me lol oh you know that this means i will be able to get to your rear ABS sensors and horns you wanted finally lol

It sounds like you have done well with the unit and equipment Baz

Yes - I had forgotten about the sensors and horns - still want them though!

The unit sounds ace and very nicely located it would seem. Only about 45 minutes from the people up this neck of the woods as well.
