Ditto, I am soon going to be taking an angle grinder to my cage to remove some bars and repalce others with lighter material.

3 years ago I thought that part was finished.

Got a 16v turbo engine to be getting on with too!

Start planning a road trip. That should concentrate your mind.

We're off to Le mans again, now tweaking to make sure we get there and back.

not been in mine since mitp either, trying to have a few months away...
with mine after getting it on the road all i wanted to do was drive it, i spent 6 months pottering about in it when i should have been finishing it off....
now its sort of broke i almost lost interest :(

edit: by pottering about i mean data logging and fueling + edging the boost up and then removing the fuel and replacing with alcohol *happy*
