Is the bonnet hinge working ok ? I would stay with plywood and carry the weight penalty of it as its cheaper to replace they all ways get damaged somehow

The bonnet hinge works to a point. There is a lot of intercooler mounts etc which get in the way and it doesn't lift as high as I'd like at the moment. Might need to a little fettling....

I'm off for a double header at Blyton this weekend and then Debden in Essex next week.

The lappie is out to change the config on the Gearbox control unit, the FTG settings on the ECU and the launch control rpm setting on the Traction system.
