Hi Gerry Looks like a very fast climb, with quick bends, thanks for the pics, you had some great weather, I will try and make next year. Would be nice if you could make Wiscombe, then we could have a chat and swap Morgan stories.
Ordered oil and plugs to service Rosie, and been reading up on a bit of tuning and posed some questions to Techniques re ECU mapping.
