We plan to take Fossa on the race track for the first time on Sunday, 15 July in preparation of her and my first race on the 21st of July at THE MIDAS HISTORIC TOUR 2012 on the Zwartkops race track.

Still have a few things to do prior to “D” day. Have recently stripped and cleaned her gearbox. The actual plan was to fit a 2821e gearbox as that box has a syncro ring on the first gear, but shock, the extension housing is longer than the standard box and will require a shorter propshaft. We will eventually do the change, it is however too short a period prior to our planned testing and race.

Butterflies, yes. Trust it will transfer into energy, reflexes and all that is needed on the track!

I have faith in the most of Fossa, at this stage the true status of her engine is not really known. It does sound extremely healthy. Time will tell!
