A few of us met up at Re:Fuel Cullompton today 👌🏼

At the "Curburgring" today

Welcome, lovely looking car 👍

A dull morning turned into stunning weather at Curborough today. Thanks to @Chester (and wife Sarah) and @DanDB for coming along. Loads of track action plus plenty of tasty cars in the car park enjoying the sunshine 🌞 The Caterham guys were all very friendly, happily chatting tonusnijnthw paddock about tyres, wheels, engines, suspension choices etc. Even found another Westfield who arrived in convoy with 3 Caterhams, sadly I never managed to track down the owner....

Its not "too difficult", just -more- difficult than without. I drive in caged Westfield also (track only ) so just sharing mine experience.

I had a look at a car fitted with a caged roll cage fitted and it didn't look to difficult to get in. I assume they make them for live and independent narrow cars ? I wanted to speak to someone about them properly but they must have been too busy. I wanted to know how much taller then the original bar and the windscreen they are as well. Ihave a rough idea now.

Welcome Simon. Looks nice 👍

I haven't taken too many yet, but here we go.

Welcome Simon @symonh2000 we like pics ! 😉

With half doors fixed its another story. Only way - up above cage with cage. Similar with additional side protection bar as on Westfield Cup cars : Without half doors or that bar, much easier without cage. Part of fun for me with road Westfield is that dont need to wear helmet, no acrobatics getting in and out . I know safety...but in production cars with doors and roof there is more strucural safety, air bags etc. By we still drive ours unsafe (even with cage, btw without 'helmet-always' and Fia padding on tubes even more unsafe) Westfields.

Hey Everyone, I have been a lurker here for a while as I have been looking at buying a Westfield for some time. But yesterday I finally took delivery of one from someone who is also a forum member. I is a 1600 CVH factory built car in blue. It is very nice but I am planning a few upgrades including engine conversion (most likely Zetec) and some cosmetic enhancements. I am not a stranger to Westfields as my late father owned a SE narrow with 1.7 X-flow many many years ago. I have also owned a TVR Griffith and numerous other interesting cars. I am sure that I will have a few questions to ask the knowlegeable members here as I begin my own Westfield journey. Best regards, Simon

You need a gullwing roll cage lambo style

Yes, I made a video of me attempting the top entry method. I removed it due to embarrassment 😂 I'm same size as you, definitely side entry is easier for me, it should be easier for slimmer people too I'd have thought. I'm wondering if many of the top entry crowd have actually tried side entry? Come over to the dark side peeps.

How old odd your odyssey and do you know % of performance left?

Odyssey PC680 battery. £50.

Ferodo DS2500 pads, M16 fitment. New. £75.

A little run out turned into 154mile and just crossing the border

I climb in and over the top of my cage as have half doors fitted. So much easier for me. 6ft 16 stone (Theres a thread somewhere on here of peeps climbing in and out, couldnt find it though) Also for getting bugs off the cage and car i use elbow grease. Its great all round for garage use

Snap!

Mine has served me well, two euro trips and occasionally when I don’t wear my helmet!

Well, that's a bit nice.

They don't slow down the Sprint Cars !

The Drive at Haddo is a new petrolhead café in Aberdeenshire. Popped in this evening mid blat.

All put to bed now
