Marcus Barlow - Show and Events Co-ordinator Posted August 26, 2016 Author Share Posted August 26, 2016 Just short of 2k miles in just over 2 weeks, the cars coped with the heat and a few uneven roads pretty good, we had a few grounding issues and I broke my cycle wing bracket but other than that nothing major 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
