With the RS500 up and running, Paul turns his attention to finishing off the cabin…

Last month we reached a bit of a milestone; the new race engine was fired up for the very first time in its new home. No matter how many engines you fit, there’s always a sense of excitement (and a few nerves) when you first flick the switch to turn over a fresh install. Thankfully the meticulous preparation paid off, and immediately the YB sprang into life. Then it continued to run perfectly, never skipping a single beat while I anxiously watched and kept an eye out for any leaks as everything came up to temperature. All was as it should be, so I let out a huge sigh of relief… then looked at the rest of the ‘to-do’ list and realised I couldn’t sit around, there was work to be done. Lots of work…
