This is great John, well done mate. Just wait till you start inputting your 2015 times, that graph is going to show much faster times ;-) me thinks Cheers

Limits on the quantity of petrol you can carry in a vehicle For private individuals: Where petrol is carried in refillable containers filled by, or for a private individual, the maximum container size is limited to 60 litres and a total quantity per vehicle of 240 litres. However, it is recommended that when storing and transporting petrol you should limit the quantity to the least amount required and ideally no more than 3 x 5 litre containers to be carried in a vehicle at any time. Petrol storage is controlled by legislation and you may be required to notify your local authority and or hold a licence to store certain quantities. See HSA guidance “Petrol Storage Information Note” downloadable from the HSA web site.

You're not storing it though, you're transporting it. I've asked one of our experts and will revert back on the regs... ETA - they do have an on site fuel station. (That said, I always take Jerrys)

There are two for the x-flow, the OC21 for the 1.3 and the OC23 for the 1.6, and IIRC the only difference is the OC21 is shorter, so I have a feeling I bought that one in order to avoid having an oil filter sticking out below the chassis rail. But I shall take a look when I get back home later! What i'd defo avoid is the Halfords own brand filters, i've heard very bad things.

Yep MOT Friday just gone and will be out Sunday "weather permitting" talking of birdies here's a little poem: The Robin sang so sweetly as I lay upon my bed, I gently closed the window and crushed his (@@@@@@@) head. Safe driving all.

done - if you need a high speed test vehicle call me... extreme testing available for 150mph +

Tel's Tales 042– 2015 Season preparation It seems a long time since the November 2014 awards night and the Speed Series Committee meeting held the day after. 2014 had been a successful season but one or two issues were considered for improvement in an effort to make a level playing field for all competitors no matter what class they enter or what car they drive! After many exchanges of ideas and god knows how many emails and telephone calls we have a published set of Draft regs (awaiting MSA approval) and on the 23rd Feb we published the list of Target Times. The approach this year has been a little different in that we have used the class averages, as well as venue averages to evaluate the validity of proposed Target Times. We have used a combination of actual class records, comparability between classes, as well as theoretical target times to set times. Whilst the times set may not be perfect we have adopted a fair approach which we believe is an improvement on what we have had previously. For 2016 it is hoped that the registered competitors will be involved in an open debate about future classes and suggestions to improve our championship so that it remains one of the best in the country. There are new tracks at Blyton (double lapper), Barbon and Ty Croes (2 lap International with corkscrew) and there are 40 possible events located all over England and Wales so no excuse for not competing, spectating or helping. My car will be out with no engine mods just slightly smaller rear tyres to improve the gearing and acceleration. Mark Anson will hopefully be out a bit more and Matt Turner seems to be struggling due to other demands on his time. Steve Everall will hopefully have his erractic tickover sorted but will be running on last years tyres. Pete Goulding has changed his diff to sierra and not got some halfshafts that are more robust and will take the power. As ever rumours about what Phil (doctor jelly) is up to as he will be running in class D this year. There are rumours that a few more people will be out in class H to join Derek Hodder and Gary Bunn. There also appears to be a lot of good banter and enthusiasm in the novice classes again so I hope to see a lot of entries in class A and B. I am not sure about class C or E but the Supertec monster will presumably be out in F again with a more reliable brake balance bar. This year will also see Nick Algar on the track in another DJ Firehawk with a supercharged busa installed. John Hoyle, Adrian Clinton Watkins and Dave Cleaver will presumably be chasing at the top again but I am not sure what mods they have done. So, only 4 weeks to go until my first event at Rockingham and I cant wait to be out on track again and I hope to see you all during the year. Keep me updated on anything you are doing or are not keeping secret and have a fast, safe season.......breakages will happen! Terry Everall Speed Series Correspondent Class G competitor
