That looks beautiful Ash 👌

It's defo quick on the Brakes could outbrake most, if not all around me and through the twisty bit of stuff was pretty good also. Helps been a short wheelbase in that aspect. Can't quite push on down the hill sections and loose a tad on the straights but overall I'm pretty impressed with it as it's set fully soft aswell on the Dampers! Will defo get some better tyres next year when these have run out of wear for sure something that is a combination for fast road and track tho as a compromise as don't want to replace em every few track days. If money was no object would have a set of Road, Slicks and Wets lol. Defo a great day and look forward to a few next year for sure.

Almost two years late, but I've managed to get my 40th birthday present sorted: A flight experience at Goodwood, in their Harvard. I had an amazing time, and got to fly her for maybe 5 mins whilst we were up,followed by a suitable amount of aerobatics. It turns out, if you don't clench hard enough, you really can start to grey out at the bottom of a 4g loop. 😮 Quick in-flight selfie: The view out over the wing, showing Thorney Island: An ever so slightly adrenaline filled me: I may take up wearing flight suits, as they're rather slimming.

Speak to chris broster he has my old tools for these

Sorry @Steve Bethell, I’m waiting for @dvd8n to pay before marking them as sold.

Yeah this is how it starts, today innocent looking rosettes, next week total obliteration of the human race via stealth toxins.

Yes. !!

Do you want my bank details, I'll pm them to you.

Yes it's fantastic. Trouble is it can also be used to generate things like this. I simply asked it to write me a believable email in the style of a Nigerian scammer. Had to pretend I was studying them, but it then did this instantly: From: Dr. Emmanuel Okon Email: emmanuel.okon@consultantmail.com Date: September 6, 2025 Dear Friend, I am Dr. Emmanuel Okon, the son of the late Minister of Petroleum Resources in Nigeria. Due to recent political instability in our country, I am seeking a trustworthy foreign partner to assist in transferring the sum of $27,500,000.00 USD into a secure offshore account. This fund was secured through government contracts before my father's untimely death. As his next of kin, I am entitled to the inheritance, but due to government restrictions, I cannot access it directly from Nigeria. I urgently seek your assistance to receive this money into your account. For your efforts, I will offer you 30% of the total sum, while 5% will go to cover any legal or transfer fees. This transaction is 100% risk-free and requires your absolute confidentiality. Please reply immediately with your: Full name Contact address Telephone number Bank account information (for transfer) Time is of the essence. I await your swift and sincere response.Respectfully, Dr. Emmanuel Okon

And this,

I've only used it for this,

@Nick Mucklow you did really well mate, the car is definitely a rapid bit of kit!

Yes it’s pretty good!

I asked a question tell me about the Westfield sports car club? here is the answer in seconds! Here’s a glimpse of the Westfield Sports Car Club (WSCC) in action: you’ll see photos that capture everything from spirited track runs to local gatherings of Westfield and other 7-type cars. About the Westfield Sports Car Club (WSCC) Founded in 1986, the WSCC is a vibrant community for owners and enthusiasts of Westfield sports cars and other 7-type (Lotus Seven-inspired) kit cars . The club is entirely volunteer-run, led by an eight-person committee and supported by over thirty-five local area organisers, creating both a lively national community and active regional groups . Club Activities & Events Local Area Meets Members regularly enjoy monthly meetups, drive-outs, and social gatherings at local venues. These are organised by area organisers across the UK, making it easy to connect with fellow owners nearby . National Shows WSCC consistently has one of the largest displays at the National Kit Car Show held at Malvern, and also regularly participates in high-profile events like the Silverstone Classic . 7s Speed Series This competitive motorsport series, evolved from the earlier Club Championship, offers sprints and hill climb events tailored to 7-type cars. The calendar typically includes dozens of events across the UK, with classes catering to different experience levels and vehicle types . Novices can compete alongside seasoned drivers in a welcoming environment . Member Benefits For around £35 per year, membership includes: A tri-annual club magazine (Westfield World), available in print or digital form . Access to a forum offering technical help, classifieds for cars and parts, event schedules, and social chat . Community support, with advice on builds, repairs, and modifications from knowledgeable members . Show access, including being able to display your car at major automotive events . Discounts on insurance, parts, accessories, and exclusive merchandise . Organized road trips and social experiences for members to enjoy their cars together . Club Heritage & Independence WSCC prides itself on being independent of Westfield Sportscars (the manufacturer), despite the shared passion for the marque. Their strength comes from the membership and volunteer base, not from corporate ownership . The club continues the legacy of Westfield cars—originally inspired by the Lotus Seven—and maintains a strong community despite changes in the manufacturer’s status over the years . What Members Say A note from a recent discussion on r/CarTalkUK: “The Westfield bunch are very much as you describe.” Another user chimed in: “Literally came here to say this. Look at the Westfield Sports Car Club.” It’s clear that members appreciate the friendly, down-to-earth community and the opportunity to share their love of these unique cars.

I didn’t think about haggling on the admin fee price. Mine is due renewal next month so interested to see the replies to your question.

I'm intrigued! I have tried a little bit last year to make 2 AI suites useful for teaching Maths to kids - ChatGPT and TeachMateAI. As you say, since they are language based machines their ability to churn out actually useful equations, formulae etc. is rather limited. What I'm really hoping for is a way to quickly visualise key concepts, whether it's via a function on a graph or even with suitable shapes etc. We've recently switched back from Google based products to Microsoft and Co-Pilot was mentioned. Since we are still grappling with the migration of emails, 3rd party software things like Co-Pilot are not on the radar for our IT team, yet. Can you tell me a bit more? Can Co-Pilot do visual stuff and/or Maths?

Sold

Yeh I use it a lot at work too, mostly for code. It can be really useful at some things, but it does seem to get fixated on particular solutions... if they don't work then it can't find it's own way out, and you end up having to guide it instead of it guiding you 😄 Claude AI is quite useful too.

Chaps what admin fee are you paying to Howden? Cos mine last year was £29 but this year they wanted £57. Got them down to £39 but that was it. Underwriter price stayed the same but still had to take a price increase.

Use ChatGPT and other AI tools quite a bit at work, and the team I work with helps deploy AI tech for a lot of clients. As you say, very powerful, for the right application. I think a lot of it depends on the LLM (Large Language Model) that it’s trained on - essentially what the AI relies on for coming up with answers. ChatGPT and Google Gemini etc basically have the whole internet to work from and this can cause problems due to the amount of rubbish published. Unfortunately they can’t always differentiate the good from the bull💩, and as the volume of AI generated content out there increases, there’s a danger it will be learning from itself! We use Microsoft Co-Pilot and it’s trained on documents within our corporate SharePoint, meaning it can only retrieve answers from documents that should be correct. We can ask it for a case study on how we’ve done x, y, or z in a particular sector and it pulls out case studies etc. Quite time saving Have you seen some of the capabilities around image generation? I think the latest Adobe Photoshop can do some amazing things
