I think the best option is going to be Keep this van, recon engine 1350 plus Vat, needs 2 driveshafts whils we're at it £100 each and the gearbox i had paid £700 to be sorted last July is also a load of whack so that can go back to them whilst the engine is out.
I've put my absolute pride and joy up for sale today to help pay for it, the pushbikes already gone, now i'm selling the engine out of my Race Scooter, prob 5k's worth of development and countless hours of blood sweat and tears went into developing it to be the fastest road legal scooter over the 1/4 mile. 13.09 seconds at 93 mph. Best i'll recoup is about £1500. Needs must.
Heres a pic of my 2 girls last year in the freshly painted MOT bay.
Not a lot happened this weekend on the race front, old bike has gone up for sale and thats about that all.
I'm awaiting on some funding coming in from a sponsor to really kickstart getting the superbike sorted, i can then order a load of parts etc.
Me and Allister (Future father in law!) are both still working hard on the sponsorship front, its gone really cold on leads lately and we still have a 15k deficit if we're going to do this properly. Its so easy to get down beat about it all sometimes, especially when the potential sponsors start thinning out.
We wont stop working though, not even if i have to have a begging pot out to get on the ferry!
We'd be more than grateful if anybody would like to assist us on our TT Campaign, Title Sponsorship is still available and for the right company the VFM in sponsoring our team would be second to none.
I did have a pleasant visit from a very nice chap/customer of ours on Friday evening and a promise of a medium sized donation really cheered me up. Details to follow.
The saying thats helping me stay motivated at the minute, its a new one to me and funny too.
