Great photos do you know anything about that car? It would be great to see a Spridget do the same trip. Any takers? How did they do that in 10 days and no troubles? I would like to email those guys

I have had a home-built Concentric slave set up on mine for nearly a year now - that's about 8,000 miles on it with no problems at all. Nice smooth take up and absolutely no problems with bleeding it
