BabySei's Car - Fiat Research Car Park

Saw the car, went looking for you but couldn't see you...asked if it was in for repairs, and by the time i came out again it had gone.

Re: BabySei's Car - Fiat Research Car Park

Ah, I was stood next to you at the parts desk.....had a wooly beanie on my head. The younger guy, not the old one buying the mirror.

The sei is off the road as i have stripped out the ecu, and gutted the wiring...fitting megasquirt, so i was in the mothers 100hp instead.

Can't remember exactly what you looked like but if i see you about I'll say hi.

Cheers,

Kristian

Re: BabySei's Car - Fiat Research Car Park

yeah...'twas I....there was another FF member there as well smiler121 or something similar, not sure if you were still there when he turned up though. We had planned to meet there though as i needed a master cylinder, and i was selling him some parts. He's from Cov way.

Every Saturday is mad there on the parts desk....they only ever have one in, so I try to get over in the week whenever possible.

Yeah, pricey wing mirror....I'd have gone down a scrapper myself lol.

Take it easy

Kristian


//edit - you a computer guy as well? *nix? Just noticed your location

Cool, hopefully something fun and interesting! Saw the test track on Top Gear the other week....madness. I'd never take my car round there!

I've been testing there a few times and the alpine area (the "track" you saw on TG) is marvellous - no other way to describe it. The high speed bowl is a crack but it gets tedious after a while, as does the mile straight...
