FBR had a great time at FSUK this year, and proud of the massive amount of work trying to get the car finished. Looking good for FSG! (14:06 pm)

FBR arrive for our 2nd Time in Silverstone! 14/07/10

It's raining heavily, blowing a gale and the Gazebo has collapsed under the strength of the wind. It's Silverstone again then.

An advance party has arrived and buisly been preparing the garage awaiting the arrival of the car tommorow evening. It is currently back at Cambridge HQ, with team members busily trying to finish off the car as best we can.

This morning the not so minor issue of the engine not fitting in the chassis became aparent, a result of changing engines from last years, dead, R6 to the (almost) identically sized Fazer 600. After some changes to the engine packaging, the engine now fits, and all is well.

On the downside, we've had to wait until tomorrow for the new rockers and bearings to arrive, and an unfortunate event involving the wishbones and them being reversed over by the manufacturers lorry, has left us with no way currently to attatch the wheels to the car. Looks like its going to be a classic Full Blue Racing, no sleep from now on sort of event.
