That looks spectacular Gus!
Was it much work to fit the HP2 body work onto a 12S?
I'm surprised they will let you keep a speedo or was that too difficult to remove with all the Canbus stuff?

Take lots of photo's on Thursday please!

Cheers

Hi all
Thankyou for all the comments.
Have had a great time over the past 2 days.
I finished 4th in my class (1200s) in both races.
I will give more details and photos when I get home tomorrow.
I,m holed up in the circuit hotel having a cold beer and a bed for tonight.
I couldn't take another night sleeping in the back of the van :D
