I'll be Gardening or at the Masters at Brands picking up so Go faster bits for my tiny car.

Spit been out yet? Triumph race at Mallory on the Sunday (no won't be there either!).

Say Hi to Colin
The Aston is a 'company car' of sorts. Wish it was mine but that is taken in Vancouver at the end of a 3500 mile journey from San Diego. Stopped at all the Aston dealers along the way to do demo days etc. That thing has got 448BHP normally aspirated with ECU/200 Cell Cats/Exhaust. Sounds pretty tasty:

There are already a couple of supercharged Vantages in the states that ESX has done but they had some problems with their package and didn't really finish it right. I know exactly who is doing your mate's car, we work pretty closely with them but I can't say more than that for the next couple of weeks.

Spit is looking alright - still needs some MSA approved belts but I'm thinking of taking it for it's first trackday at Castle Combe on the 6th of June. They have a sort of 'action day' where you can buy 15 minute track passes for £30.00 which suits me better. I don't want to drop £200 and then feel like I have to get my money's worth and kill the car (after all it is pretty standard - mildly warmed on an suspension sorted but totally stock brakes etc.)
