@Euan Hoosearmy What do you propose as a solution?

Hi all, I have an actual Westfield Diff on my car and want to change the internals to make it a LSD. Can anyone please tell me what internals Westfield used in there housings please? The diff housing has the Westfield logo cast into it.

They're building one of those just down the road from me at the moment.

Your bills keep going up as you're paying for two sets of generating infrastructure and the crazy schemes to balance production and demand... Wind and Solar are unreliable, when working at full output they can produce enough to meet a good proportion of demand.... but the sun don't shine at night and the wind doesn't always blow so you need enough nuclear and gas stations to be able to meet the same demand when it's dark and calm. We don't actually have enough capacity so we have to import from various sources in mainland europe often at exorbitant cost. Batteries - don't even go there.... just don't have the capacity to be able to keep the grid running for any period of time. The larger battery implementations in the US have a nasty history of fires and the locals in California are getting fed up with them : https://ctif.org/news/bess-fires-residents-sue-energy-companies-after-massive-toxic-battery-fire-moss-landing-power#:~:text=Monterey County%2C CA – Following a massive lithium-ion,of failing to maintain adequate fire safety measures. Keep an eye on https://gridwatch.co.uk/ to see how often the renewables/unreliables aren't producing what's needed.

V2G could help balance the grid and reduce the insanity, but that’s a long way off. More nuclear would be good, particularly the small local plants. Quite how we managed to screw up the windfall of North Sea Oil so badly is no mystery really. Just see where the money went. Hydrogen has a place but there are some fundamentals that need solving before it’ll reach any scale. Green production being the first, then will come storage and distribution. Until we have way more electricity generation than we know what to do with, and a large scale process of production, hydrogen can’t really be much more than a curiosity I don’t think.

A little harsh. I doubt any politician or industry expert saw "this" coming. We, like France, should have built more nuclear power stations but the same is true, no-one saw "this" coming so we didn't. The nuclear nay-sayers might well argue that pylons are prefereable to plutonium (ok, Uranium, but I like aliteration...). So we're left with "we must do something" and the government du jour will do something that the majority will object to and when voted out the next lot will fully or partially dismantle it for something equally unplatable. I think what we can agree on is net zero by 2030 is not going to happen in real life, but the numbers will say it has and it will be clear that we all payed for this **** show as usual. If they could just all agree that hydrogen is the way forwards we could get some stuff done...

The day

Are you doing the day or evening @Mole?

Yep!! 😀 I better get some proper tyres ready to keep up with you!

Sold

Hi Ash, can you send me some pictures Thanks

I have a pair of new 230 570 13 dunlop slick tyres. £200 collected from Peterborough. Thans

I’ve just booked Donington using our Javelin discount code for the evening on 2nd July. Anyone else going?

I have replied to your other post about dates I have booked...

I've owned my megablade for 18 months now and done nearly 7,000 miles in it trouble free sounds alot yes but I purchased it to drive not park on the drive to buff up.Today whilst out on a drive 30 miles from home I had my first small mechanical failure my gear shift linkage broke leaving me stuck in 6th gear so I turned round and started my journey home which included going through the middle of a large town chelmsford with multiple roundabouts, traffic lights and queues of cars in 6th gear it didn't stall once no clutch burn I was shocked I was able to do this lots of stop start and made it home no problem I can't think of another car I could have done this in pat on the bonnet for my meg. At least I learnt one thing from this I can go from 0 to 130 in one gear.

I watched a bit of Simon Reeve in Norway on the BBC. Apparently before North Sea oil was discovered in 1969, it was pretty much a backwater with fishing the only industry. They however invested their oil money and now have a 13 trillion public bond. So they can fund all the public spending they want and however much they spend per year the interest on the bond is soo much, it still goes up.

Issue is that the grid is crap. So it's that or pylons everywhere. Great planning by our short term governments as always

As the title Nice quality system Looks like simpson it me but cannot be sure Silencer included £950 collection only .

Ash, Just to clarify, are the arches detachable or is it all one piece? Mat

Zk bodywork Green Tub Rear zk standard arches still fitted (standard) Scuttle Westfield aeroscreen carbon wrapped Still have the rear lights fitted The tub has been trim level with the scuttle so you need to used some type of flared side panels £750 Just go and have alook at the price of one rear arch on westfield !! Colllection only

Great weekend, the bar and bbq was awesome, 7 series table merged with caterham so quite a crowd. Fingers crossed Mark Bishop can get his car back on the road soon after his final run off.

Sold and collected.

Read it, crazy isn't it and all the while they are trying to push us into electric cars. I would miby consider one if it was cheaper like they are in Norway. I've watched a few videos of a bunch of microlight flyers and they always know when they've crossed the border into Scotland, because the wind farms start!

Thanks all, can't believe I've reached 30 already 😂😂
