Racing a Westfield?

Not messing! Absolutely fine.

It's going nowhere. I moved to a underneath nose number plate after getting it.

David - can I have the tow eye from you please?

 

PM me the cost and how you wish to be paid etc.

 

Don't suppose you have two do you!?

Update:

 

- Steering lock now 'rendered inoperative',

- Fire extinguisher fitted

- 2 litre catch tank fitted

- Stickers added

- Tow eyes fitted

 

I Just need to fit my ARB's (awaited from Playskool) and get my second kill bought and fitted. Helmet and Hans to buy at the Autosport Show in Jan.

 

I also want to adjust the position of my pedals to make heel and toeing easier. That's going to be fun.....Any advice welcomed. I need to tweek the position of the brake pedal as it's too high so I'll have to cut a bit off of the thread from the master cylinder.

Which pedal setup do you have? Can you just bolt a sheet of ali to the throttle instead, or change it starting position?

Bottom hinged...if that makes sense Adam.

 

The throttle positon is ok I think, it's the brake that too high. I had the master cylinder replaced and it's got a thread that too long onto the pedal I think

 

I was hoping come a see you in the new year by the way. I need to get my setup checked and ARB's given the once over.

It does. Makes sense to do it that way round from what you've said, definitely  :t-up:

 

Sure, just let me know, can be free pretty much whenever. Looks like you're quite a way away, so if you need somewhere to kip over (and maybe tie it in with a track day, if you want) you're welcome at ours :yes:

Thanks Adam. That's a kind offer.

 

I'm collecting the car from BLINK in Feb so I thought I would swing by your workshop after that so it's not such a drive. I don't know the dates yet but I would like to reduce the ride height, check spring rates and set up the ARB's. I may also need to slightly adjust the headlight brackets if I reduce the ride height as they may well foul on the wishbones afterwards if I don't. I guess from your blogs that you like a bit of welding!?

Is a half tonneau worth considering when I have a full width aeroscreen? One of these:

'A few tenths a lap' is definitely talking my language Adam!

 

So where do I get my 'curtain'!

 

Half doors presumably a different conversation? Too much time over the closed season to think about these things!

Right that's it, just paid my membership to join CSCC and race the Westy in the Mag 7 series this year. Suppose I better finish the car!
