Noobie - but not a noobie really

Well after a fair while away i've decided to rejoin the site. Needed some time away from the kit car scene although i still have my Tiger B6 kit in storage ready to build.

Had a really rubbish couple of years struggling to find a proper job but things are looking good again now as i'm working for a cracking company in Financial Services - with a salary and bonus scheme that'll allow me to fund my build. Just need to settle into the role and then move to somewhere with a garage then it's build time again!!

Roll on Stoneleigh anyway!!

Welcome back, have a chat with Fozzie and I'm sure you could get your old id back again

Sounds good to me - glad things have turned around, my kit was in storage for about 3 years (unstarted) slowly getting back on my feet aswell now but for different reasons to you.

Im just plodding along with the kit & have decided not to give any time limits now, when its done its done

Cheers guys.

Well its been a rough couple of years and as anyone out of work on here will say - its really hard getting through it and can so easily drag you down. I've had to settle for helping other members out with their cars while mine has sat with a partly modified chassis. Still, summer should see me cracking on with mine with all the plans i have. ZX10R engine, redesigned front suspension with wider track and aluminium uprights etc.

There'll be no progress for a few months as i need to move to a house with a garage - just planning for the time being. Pretty sure i know how i'll be building this one - as light as possible within reasonable budget. I think redesigning the front suspension to go to inboard shocks and with longer wishbones / different uprights is going to be the biggest challenge.
