well due to the dreaded missfire that appeared after the rolling road day back in August 08. the car has done nothing :( the engine is half stripped to see if it was a mechanical fault, but it is looking more like electrical now, So as the engine is half stripped we have decided the engine is coming...

under the bonnet, drivers side near where the wiring loom goes through into the car,
look for a black oblong shaped box,
oull this off and the fuses are under there.

and goes like a foooooooking rocket,

im honered to of been part of the caprisport team, (Jon and Neil), in the building of the above car, what fun we had, more so the deadlines that had to be met.
If finances were a bit kinder to me i would be tempted to buy the above car or build one myself.
