Well I'm home, Wasnt a bad day really. Couldn't see the hardtop on the way home but you can't really see the other side of the carriageway. Might go down the A1 tomorrow to go back to work to see if I can see it. Its probably been run over though :( Also I need a thing where they clip into, going to have to put my soft top on tonight and strap or tape it down.

Drove down the A1 and passed the bedford turnoff and didnt see it or any evidence. Theres lots of ditches and slopes down at the side though so i may not of been able to see it. If it got blown sideways off the carriagway it may well of survived. Tempted to run/walk along the side of the A1 to look properly, its only 60 miles worth :/ It survived the 5 hours 2 Doncaster but not the 2 too bedford :(

Got the ECU back from Courtenay's and refitted it and all the codes are now gone. Tested the hot starting idle issue I had and see to of gone too. Need to drive it and do a bit more testing before I can pat myself on the back though. Then i re lacquered the carbon ears and they look much better. Going to sand down the wing and re lacquer that next week. As I get paid tomorrow I may order the wishbone bushes from EP, can anyone get me any discount from the website prices?

Sanded back and put a new coat of lacquer on the ears and wing as it was peeling off and looked sh*t. Not a bad job for £7.
