Just been out for a ride locally.....about 2 miles up the road I visited a WW1 airfield, the last remaining one......fantastic little place. Anyway.....on the site is a small unit in which 3 seven type cars were being built. One duratec ,one a V6 and the other a V8. Astonishing cars, the two v engines are their own design/castings. The v6 has been built to produce up to 600 hp.....didn't dare ask about the V8. The quality of the builds was by far the best I have ever seen and if you like a carbon fix then this is the place ! The business is run by Russ Savory......RSPerformance. Think this could be the place for future club meets...will speek to my AO...bet he knows it ! Can't believe it's only walking distance from my house....I'll be there Sunday......set breakfast in the mess looks too good to miss........worth the drive out for all members..REALLY!

If a big friendly man offers you some jelly, consume it in moderation.

Plenty of camping space and room to play ball games etc

the small show crew owing to the small shoes we have to wear to drive our highly practical and incredibly economic and inexpensive cars :-)

Well you old misery

Alonso v Vetel was the best racing seen for a good while , thought Alonso was brilliant , in spite of the radio b***hing

I totally agree that electricity generation needs to be looked at which is why I deliberately set it aside in my previous post. As battery and motor technology improve and together with it efficiency the demands on grid produced electricity will be lessened although there will still be a demand. As we know that electricity has to be produced somehow and in the UK at least the greater proportion of it is still generated by non-renewable sources. We're getting there slowly though and in the first quarter of this year 19.4% of our electricity was generated by reneawables (wind/solar/wave/tidal/bio) this was up from 12.4% in the same quarter for the previous year.

Glad to have been a small help with my tiny but mighty teng tool! Nowhere near the help you were to me with the loan of your old wheels and tyres, saving me from old T1R griplessness. :)

After the rain all Friday night and Sat Am I believe we were very fortunate to get a dry track in the afternoon. I agree the morning was very slow as some entrants did not treat the wet hill with the respect it deserved! I guess they allocate the Paddock Nos on a first come first basis and it is disappointng that we got some uncovered ones. I also guess the higher numbered empty ones meant they did not have a full entry. It was not a problem to move to a covered one (as David proved all day without intervention) as long as the Paddock Marshall knew where you were when needed to be called. I would like to reflect on some of the high spots of the day like the PB's of some of the newer members of the SS clan, Well done to David Reed and Craig Spooner, you are both starting to worry me! Good to see Mark Schlanker back at Shelsley again after his off last year and able to Exercise his Deamons with a very good time! After Wiscombe this was Caribean weather! See you all at Blyton for another great sunny w/e Best wishes G Free
