When does the season start? do you get an official test day or is it just a visit to a track day for a shakedown?

First Time Attack UK round is in May, but I think the Dutch/European Time Attack round we are going to do is before this. We shall be out on testing days before the end of March if all goes to plan.
Had a meeting with the cars soon to be driver Charlie Butler-Henderson yesterday and took him to where the car currently is to have his seat fitting. Aside from a minor adjustment of the pedal position on the AP Pedal box all is good.
The car is currently in a garage with an Aston DB9 and a famous TVR Sagaris (http://www.tvrmonste...wsandyspec.html) at AI Automotive, having the wiring loom fitted.
Having only dropped the car off there on Wednesday I was amazed yesterday to see the loom well under way, and jobs done which I didnt expect to see - new Hardrace adjustable front top suspension arms, wiper linkage/motor amongst those jobs. Standard of the work seems top notch and the service and experience at this place is undoubted. The garage is shared with another company owned and run by the famous Dennis Leech, ex-BTCC, British Formula One, GT, and Le Mans driver/team manager. Happy the car is in a good place and looking forward to getting it back wired up and ready to send upto TTS Performance.

Some pics of work currently going on with the car, very impressed with AL Automotive doing the work:
Adjustable top hardrace front arms
Hardrace diff mounts, rear loom in for lights
Dash coming together, carbon back panels cut, switches being put in

Just wondering something on the hardtop... does it have to be bolted in to comply with MSA, or could you have used the OEM catchers / levers? Also on the seat, does it have to be bolted or can you use rails?

Looking good mate! DOes this pic help on you question about the water lines. I assume your intake does away with the same sensors and hoses as mine? If not let me know and I'll see what other pics I can dig out.
Rob is this how you have to hose it up if you remove the secondary air pump thingy?
