All Activity

My 1st attempt at polishing stainless steel. The manifold was all the dark tarnished colour before and the silencer pipe and end cap weren't quite so bad. Started with 120 grit and moved through to 2500 grit before polishing. About 7 hours in total to complete.

Sorry still no engine in the car.

Hopefully!

Money needed for more food.

Should be😁

Sorry. Nope. Holiday.

Nice little impromptu Essex meet to take advantage of the lovely weather 😎

Meet at Quacker's Cafe (gather.mango.tank) at 10am for a trot around the Peak District. It's a good, dry weather forecast but please wrap up, it's going to be a lot colder than this week has been. I'll have 300 layers on as usual 😁 Who is coming?

Yes from me 👍 just avoid speed humps please 😎

Hi Barry, I'll take them. PM on way

Ok chaps and chapesses, it’s that time of the month again. Sycamore farm, Sunday morning at 10am. unfortunately I am away at the moment, but don’t let that stop you, we have had some good turn-outs lately, so let’s keep it up, the weathers looking good, so you could do a fun out after breaky. https://www.farmhouseinns.co.uk/pubs/lancashire/sycamore-farm?utm_source=g_places&utm_medium=locations&utm_campaign=FHI_pubpage

I did an evening session in 2023, which was my first time at Brands Hatch. I enjoyed the track but was black flagged twice for noise, fortunately the 2nd time was about 10 mins before the end so not much track time lost. I was surprised to have a noise problem because I’ve not had problems on any other track, including being okay at Bedford which is known for being tight on noise limits. So enjoy the track but be careful with the noise 👍

Run out in Yorkshire on the 11th May. Meet up at The Motorist, Lennerton Lane, Sherburn in Elmet, LS25 6JE at 10:30 to leave at 11. Taking a scenic run to The Wheels cafe at Sykehouse near Goole. Anyone interested?

BTTT...

Hello all, I now have 3x 5L of Millers CRO that are surplus to requirements. New, unopened, unused. £15 each, collected from Glossop area. Not sure how I'd ship but happy to discuss with buyer, Cheers, Barry

Well, my cheeky last minute request for the paddock got accepted, so I can pop in there too. Really thought they would be full by now. Still suggest we meet at the Business Park at 7.45 ish and see what it’s like, hopefully we can park up for a photo shoot then drive in.

Hi - are these wheels still available? Thanks. O.

Compomotive cxr satin black centre cap wanted . Managed to lose one of mine somewhere😊

Ok, thanks.

The Warrington sub division can’t make it tonight I’m afraid. Ones broken his ankle the others torn a hamstring. Between @Megabusa Paul and myself we could make a Frankenstein’s monster driver but we haven’t found a doctor willing to do the cut and shut yet. Enjoy, it’s great weather for a blat!

Given the current wonderful weather, the 'Stoke Rabble' will be departing from the pub, circa 30 mins from arrival to drive to the Cat and Fiddle. It would be great if some of the low mileage Cheshire brigade wish to venture out with us too. The route could look like this-

I bought these recently as I was hoping to use them as part of a bespoke cage build. I thought these would save some time and effort but in reality that hasn't proven to be the case and hence putting them up for sale in case anyone else has a use for them. As per the description these bars provide the side attachments points for the Westfield cage. They don't appear to have ever been fitted. I paid £35 for them so hoping to recover that but open to sensible offers as there's no point them sitting on the shelf. Happy to post at buyers cost or collection from Bristol.

Moving the June meeting back a week is a good idea. See you on Sunday!
