Great pics! Thanks all, my first time at the Gold Cup and really enjoyed it. My boy loved it too and can't stop saying "I saw racing cars" this morning and told me "I want a Westfield like Daddy. A red one." last night before bed so we may have a future club member in the making.

For your attention!

Costs £10, for corner weights and £30 for the Dyno Run (3 runs with a print out of the best run)- Cash payments only on the day to each garage. N.B. for both activities, time will not allow for adjustments to made to your vehicles, this session is only to benchmark or ‘draw a line in the sand’ as to how your vehicle currently is.

Even though the two units are walking distance apart, please don’t book concurrent appointments if you’ve having both done. The time slots above are only an approximation and events on the day may move things around slightly! The corner weight system being used doesn’t print out, hence we’ll manually record the weights and vehicle registration numbers.

Bernie at rest.

Jeff. Your pics show what a great weekend it was. Enjoyed it all, bacon butties, fairy cakes, but also great company, and lots of good friends. The Gold Cup is my favourite event of the year. The rain on Sunday produced some interesting racing, and the Monday was dry, Calum Lockie, in the 8.8 litre March, did a 100 mph average lap, pole position and won both races. Car of the meeting for me. Car 18 in your pics. John.

Great weekend at Oulton Park for the Gold Cup

Loving my Westfield, even though I broke it last weekend at Rockingham, spun on Saturday at loton and spent yesterday getting soaked also at loton. Cant wait to get it out again

Hi, just gauging interest really regarding my Westfield. She’s a 1992 se narrow body with a tuned 1700cc crossflow. The body work is in good order for a 26 year old car with some very slight bubbling on the bonnet from the engine/exhaust manifold, and on the rear of the car there’s some slight fading around where the spare wheel would sit on the hanger, the odd scuff from the harness falling out the car etc but other than that she is very tidy. Original swept wings which seem to be a rarity nowadays and look pretty smart, interior is in good shape also with 2 leather seats, willans 4 point harnesses and omp quick release steering wheel. I have two sets of wheel and tyres for her as well. The wheels on the car at the minute are a set of immaculate jbw compomotive 13” chrome minilite replicas with Yokohama a539 all round (all very good tread, only a couple months old, with 1 unused spare) I also have the ally cat 13” minilite wheels which came with the car (5 wheels in good condition, just some bubbling of the paint) and then another 4x Yokohama a539 low profile unused tyres. Car handles great with these tyres and the spax suspension all round. List of all the parts are as follows. MOT until December this year 1700cc crossflow, big valve head, high lift cam, twin Webber’s (150bhp) limited to 7500rpm with a dta management box which also has fully functioning launch control (4500rpm) 4 speed rocket box English live axle spax suspension all round stack rev counter omp steering wheel (quick release) Wet weather gear (hood and doors) Spare repackable exhaust silencer (for track days etc) 4 x jbw compomotive minilites with 5x yoko a539 5 x ally cat 13” minilites 4 x unused yoko a539 (lower profile) push button start vintage steel number plates it’s a quick little car and only reason I’m thinking of selling is to buy my first house but I’m in no way desperate to part with it and will probably regret doing so. ** £5995** is roughly where I want to be. silly offers will be ignored but sensible offers will be considered. Sure I’ve missed bits out here and she really is a well sorted Westfield. Any questions please ask. Based in Devon. It’s a very well put together car and the person who built it was obviously very passionate about it which is reflected in the engine and chassis build only thing that I can see that needs tidying really is the wiring!

I will hopefully be getting the car on the road this weekend for the first time this year. A little too late to join you guys this Saturday but I'm keen to get out with you guys in the not too distant future. Have fun.

Hi Jeff, Hold off spending time looking, a Ford dealer in Switzerland has kindly posted one of three he had on the shelf, didn't even charge me! Thanks though. Kev

Hi, I have sold my wide body car and am looking for another, would a person approx 6'2" slim build fit in a narrow body, I was thinking about room around the pedals? thanks Peter

Yes a cracking weekend John and as you say that 8.8 litre March was awesome. Jeff

Nice looking car. Might help to let people know whereabouts in the country you are too

Engine rebored. 8 Hardened valves in head. 9 New distributor and electronic ignition. 10 New clutch and pressure plate. 11 Shortened sump. 12 New battery. 13 New windscreen, frame and mirrors 14 New wiper motor 15 New starter motor and alternator I enjoy the challenge of building vehicles so i am looking for my next project. The vehicle is located on the Wirral and I can be contacted on 07817721423 Now sold.

I used to fly this.

Haha. I built a suprrmoto a few years ago and it got very obsessive. I wanted to change a Honda XR 650 to black. They were only available in red so I commissioned Acerbis to run of 100 rear mudguards in black. An then commisioned an engineering company to make an ally fuel tank the same as a Honda CRF so I could use black. It got very expensive. I will be a bit more careful. Promise.

Hahahahaha I attempted a photo but it didn't load. Will try again

I was also on the same crossing as Nico, brilliant roads to and from the ferry.
