Here's some more pictures of it back when it was silver and its first number 44 not sure if I've mentioned that before but yeah it's the one with the pink day glow headlight blanks and mirrors so the pit crew could see it from the pits. You can also see its sister car the one with the one with the yellow bits on it driven by David Shaws brother Ian Shaw. I stole these pictures off the mark fish website I hope they forgive me they are of my car after all 🤣

Bedford on Monday in the cup racer with the period correct overalls and a borrowed helmet had some oil cooler issues and managed to destroy a tyre but was a good day

You might notice the car now has pink wing mirrors more authentic to when it was raced they were painted pink so that the team could see it coming down the pit lane

Went to cadwell Thursday my favourite UK track, all seemed to be going well just before lunch I was coming round crane of curve's the car completely span out no chance of saving it I was very confused as the car usually gives plenty of warning when the back is coming out. Turns out the gearbox had punched a hole in the bottom and dumped all its oil into the rear wheels 😭 any way I managed to keep it out of the wall with full throttle and some luck. So expect a new box and some changes to the car over the coming weeks

I was there, didn’t realise it was yours that had spat oil everywhere but it made a mess of park and chris curve for sure. Hope you get it sorted without too much issue.
