All Activity

A huge thanks to our new Chairman @Hedley Bennett (HB46443) - Club Chairman for supporting this new event, a sort of small version of Malvern where all varieties of kit cars are encouraged to get together and rejoice in our choice of hobby. Hedley and I The Kit Car Show Thanks to @Jakejmagee for the extra photo's. When I said a 'small' version of Malvern, I did mean small, so don't laugh but come and join us next year to make it biiiiiiiig. @Greenstreak-Andy D bought out his newly refurbished car to show off to us. A lot of hard work and money has been spent after his unfortunate accident a year ago today. This goes to show just what can be done, I think the interior is the same and so is the engine. Andy has done a great job and his attention to detail shows. The Westfield's came out in force of course, 11 cars including Jake's Tiger The Marlin's had a good turn out, some were local (Ashbourne and Bakewell) and others had come from Leeds and even Somerset, so well done to them. A lovely, friendly and cheerful bunch. We get treated like royalty here with our reserved parking spots underneath the sign, I know I know, we are weird, I'll take that. Flying the Peak District flag The neat Honda engine on show As usual we get itchy feet and soon take off onto the wonderful surrounding roads in search of food. We had a great, steady convoy up to the Traveller's Rest at Bradwell where we always get well fed. Parked at the Traveller's Rest Blimey, well fed! I had been eating half an hour and still not made a dent in my plate, I reckon that I will be ok for food now until 3 weeks on Thursday. Poor Lee had to have a sleep halfway through his dinner it was that big. After lunch we took off to The Pavillion, Baslow for cake, oh hilarious, I just had a pot of tea I can assure you. No names, but some people could actually fit cake in Monkey's Tea Party Cars parked at the Pavillion I don't know where they get their ideas from......the boys ddecided to have a game of something that looked nothing like cricket The ball ended up here, of course it did... A hilarious day out, very much good fun, what a club, what great cars to have in such a wonderful place xxx

I tried 5 of those when I had a complete flat after a screw in the tyre was repaired using a kit like above and it got it to about 5psi. I now carry a small electric compressor adapted from a cigar lighter lead to crock clips.

I am open to offers guys, talk to me .. see if we can work a deal out.

Im not sure here are the dims from the cobra website. Im away at the moment but will check them when I get home

You can CO2 powered ones for push bikes, may take a couple of bottles for a car tyre.

Given that those cans you can buy that inflate the tyre and insert gunge to seal a leak can supposedly inflate a tyre, you'd think you could buy compressed air cans for emergency tyre inflation wouldn't you? Maybe you can? It would be handy for kit car owners for sure. I don't have a ciggy lighter socket so it's battery powered pump or foot pump for me

Looking for an early 90s SEi seat (see pic). Similar condition to the picture preferred but will consider anything usable. Pesky mice decided one of mine was a nice place to live - grrr. I'm in Notts but can travel to collect.

How great it was to get out and meet up with all you lovely folk. Thank you Julie. A most enjoyable day. Great to be back! Andy

Hi, will these fit an SEi, i.e. narrow body?

There is a Javelin discount code so can be used on their snetterton days

It is an idea, but I would rather prefer sth for 12V from car , so it can work a long time. For battery one, I not always remember to charge full and will it be sufficient to inflate whole tyre ? For quick set of pressures I use one of this : Suprised how accurate it is , and effortless. But not sure if sufficient battery capacity for whole weel from 0psi. Just ordered some air compressor for 12V from car instalation, small 110x95x47mm.

I got one that takes the same battery as my 18V power tools, cost a bit more but thought it was worth it.

I've got that repair kit in the boot of my Westfield, but just realized there's nothing in there to actually inflate the tyre if I manage to fix it.. need to look for som compact air compressor.

That trailer has to be worth a fair bit! 👍 Making the car good value 😁

A 4 wheeled Bond Bug?!! I never knew there was such a thing! Have you guys seen the Hayabusa Turbo Bond Bug video on YouTube? One of my favourite all time car vids. If you've not seen it please take a look, it will make you laugh I promise! 😂 Trust me this is worth watching! https://youtu.be/1tUy78T8Euo?si=aSoUsA6S-c8HhdCS The driving part starts around the 6 minute mark

Gutted, I couldn't get there. Some nice shots, thanks for posting 👌

It was great to meet you you as well Richard and we had a great day spectating. The other Sprint that I mentioned at Castle Combe is The Great Western Sprint on Saturday 18th October which has the final round of the UK Sprint Championship. Below are some photos of the Speed Series members @Richard Houlgate @Dan Trotman @Paul Harvey @Stuart Gilks competing yesterday.

It does leave a small lump of the repair sticking out to trim off but it was on my quad for 5 months and never seemed to wear down it's tough stuff.

Yes. Hold your phone flat, do not tilt it, rotate through 90°

Need to play with the height stops a little…

Well, still no car, but the ramp has arrived and the good news is, I think it will just about fit in one of my garages 😂

Westfield Genuine 1 piece bonnet and nose. Brand New. In red with grilles attached. Uncut, undrilled and unused. I will get photos this week to show how good it is. This has come as part of the kit with an SEIW, although I'm not sure it makes a difference? Any interest please let me know otherwise I may look to fit it. Price from westfield was over £2200! Located near Norwich for collection only.

Five! Five little Tenax fasteners! Ah ah ahhhh!

Do the instructions include how to rotate photos 90 degrees?
