True should be a good couple of events!!

We will have to service next to each other :P

Foggy 13th February 2009 10:40

We should be able to get you, ourselves and Colin togeather, so we meet before going into Down Ampney just of the A419, and convoy in. :y:

I know that it will be Colin's first outing in the car, and with the experience gained by ourselves over the last 3 years of running the Saxo, if there are any probs we should be able to help out, plus give any advice where he needs it...

Always nice having peeps you know on the first event... :y:

I am making arrangements for our photographer to be there as well, so we can get some good pics done as well.... John was Matt Neils official photographer in the BTCC for several years! :cool:

Glad to see everything is ready.... Just need Jimbo to polish it now!

Ours passed the MOT, and I am glad it went on the rollers, as we found a fault with the pedal box, but all sorted now...

Ours is having the windows removed today (Mon) and the film applied, and thats it. Ready for the show on Bank Holiday Monday (On a sponsors stand) and then DOWN AMPNEY....... Bring it on and sideways..... :y:

Steer from the rear in a FWD... LOL :cool:

There wont be a next time will there!... hahahahaha

Dont forget that you could always use a tarp under the car... Need one for DA anyway....

The film was an arse to do on the one window, and not convinced about it at the mo.. Going to let it all dry till tomorrow, and see how shite it looks. The stuf is realy thick tbh, and was wondering if we could get some tinted stuff instead :cool:

Yeh had to use a tarp for the last event, i think most we will have to.

I can imagine that film being a pain and looking tacky, you should just go polycarb mate!! :)

Yep, get some coke, pour it over the oil.
Leave a min or two, then wash off and use a brush to clean the drive.

Works a treat :y:

MJRallying 8th April 2009 18:14

Not really a massive update chaps, car is at AC Motorsport having some bits done as the next event is the weekend after next!!!

Seeding for the event has now been done im pleased with 28th out of 65 as i dont want stupid hold ups like last time when i was seeded 3 from the back!! lol

An evo 5 and a riley elf was really causing a loss of time on stages!!!

Will update with pics and a rally report after the event!!

MJRallying 11th April 2009 15:21

Update 11/04/09

Cambelt is now done, timing was quite a way out and after driving it yesterday it does feel abit quicker/responsive....
