How can we go from hottest day known to man kind to the rain. Oh well what a weekend and what a great parade lap.

And when I got home,

Uploaded my gopro. Unfortunately the battery ran out just into the lap but its better than nothing.

Yes you swine!

Some of mine,

A few pictures from the weekend.

😄😄 😄 Tell her I’m completely unsurprised and deeply proud of her!

... then blew it up to use as s pillow? @Gail Jones (Shows & Events Coordinator)

Not guilty! @Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Secretary Was the driver.

Good lap around Silverstone track then a quick rally session on the campsite 😂

Beginning middle end

Hi Guys/gals Just a quick hello really to introduce ourselves. Totally new to the Westfield/Kit Car world, having previously raced Mitsubishi Evo's in the main. Were looking to enter a Westy into Time Attack next year, so i would love to pick peoples brains for opinions, suggestions and reccomendations if thats ok. Weve been kindly invited by Westfield to visit the factory on August 10th to see how they are produced and sit down to discuss options etc so looking forward to that. Many Thanks in advamce

Hello everyone, To coincide with Westfield being at the Silverstone classic car show we are offering 15% discount on all orders placed from today until Sunday at midnight. Coupon code for online orders is CLASSIC19. Orders can also be placed over the phone. Hope everyone has a great weekend. Many thanks Westfield Parts Dept.

Our first camper was a self-built MWB LT35 (Sprinter) and found that big in some circumstances. The new camper we've started building is on a 6.5t Fuso 4x4 chassis, and that's still only just over 6.2 metres. That one you're looking at is 7.5 metres, and due to the north-south island bed, there's an awful lot hanging out past the back axle - and then hang bikes on the back or a-frame something? - it's got more a**e than Kim Kardashian! Is there anything you can compromise on? East- west bed? Wet bathroom instead of separate shower? Anything to get it shorter. Something that long'n'low restricts you to campsites - wild camping in sweet spots up the back of Scotland would be differcult.

A good compromise for transport when you're pitched is a pair of e-bikes. Easy 30-40 mile range with good paniers will cover all your basic shopping and sight-seeing needs.

Took me 6hrs to get back to Newcastle in the tin top. Weather and driving conditions horrendous and M1 at a standstill or crawling pace for hours. Glad I wasn’t doing THAT run in the Westy! But was well worth it as it was a cracking weekend! Edit typo - was 6 hrs. But felt like 8!

@Rickyboy100, I think you've forgotten something.

A wet parade lap.

Should have fitted swept wings @Robin (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO

Or to peruse many Westfields, pop along to... .... contact @Robin (Red Spider) - Yorkshire AO to join the tour.

Hmmm I wonder if there would be a way of setting up the boardroom to automatically post reminders of calendar events say a month before and then two weeks before so all events could get equal promotion.

Or what about a wscc organised event at Curborough or Llandow??

Speak to Motorsport events ltd, the run really good track days and also have individual private tuition on track away from the main body of cars which may suit better

If he still has a driving license, then I don't see why he couldn’t do a track day. I don’t remember being asked health or age questions, although an organiser’s disclaimer is usual. If a track day is too adventurous, maybe a local friendly open air kart track might let him have a few laps, by himself of course, not with a swarm of Lewis Vettels. Good on you and good on your dad. If he finds an MG TC in the back of his shed, tell him I’ll look after it. Growing old is mandatory, growing up isn’t. Good luck.

Just drop Patrick or Jason an email with the stuff you were trying to order. I've had this a couple of times with discount codes and they've always sorted it afterwards if I've sent the email in during the discount period.

I wanted to say that ( sad face )

Another argument in favour of swept wings!

Hey Everyone! The sun has been shining (mostly) and everyone's been moaning it's too hot (tradition) but I have started seeing my local Kit owners out and about! So if you're looking at getting your pride and joy out for the summertime, almost finished building or perhaps it's still in bits! We have more Kit Car schemes than ever available to us and policies from fully comprehensive cover to laidup/build cover - so there should be something for everyone Now the bad news: I am on maternity leave still so you can't have the absolute pleasure of speaking to me on the phone - I'm still online supporting though as I have a genuine love for the clubs and still want to look after you all. My team in the office are just as awesome (or nearly) and will look after you - 01635 874646 if you want a quote, or to request a call back pop some details in here: https://www.aplan.co.uk/common-pages/get-a-quote?root=1109&page=1695&int=809 Much love! Carlie

We'll meet you at 8am at the Tomintoul Lecht Road end T junction, Gary. Looking forward to it and hoping the weather's good. David

Some lovely old Astons and a Bugatti amongst other exotica about to go at it!

Eek. That's a lot of petrol money before the E version starts to pay for itself. But fair play for doing something new

Haha! Not all Audi and BMW drivers are bad! The indicators do get used and work on the X5 !! 😂

Audi A5 Sportback tdi or BMW 4 series Gran coupe? Andy, what’s happened, you used to be a nice guy? Big birthday, or something more evil? John, Ford Kuga driver. 😉

AKA 2 Westie Dave about to become 3 Westie Dave?

The sun is over the yard arm 😁 the club turnout...

Lifters on the MX5 engine are hydraulic.

Our little trip to the Norfolk Broads, had some bad weather but that didn't dampen the mood.

Visiting @Chris King - Webmaster and Joint North East AO At his posh highland retreat

At Stoneleigh today.

Nice day out at the Pride and Joy meet Cadnam in the New Forest. Followed Mike Coat in his Hayabusa powered Westfield, made my Xflow look and feel like it needs to pensioned off!! 😂

Bank holiday Lancashire day out.

Evening Trackday at Brands. Nice and quiet.

Yesterday.... also Cotswolds

At Puddleducks Tea Room, Dunsop Bridge on Saturday...

Buttercup earlier today.

Officially ready for the season! Was up at track developments today near castle combe. Geo and corner weights done. 560kg with 1/3 of tank. The car was a bit darty when pushing on. Turns out it was quite toe'd out. Corrected to a bit of toe in and weights sorted out. Cars more settled now. Dave really knows his stuff I would definitely recommend.

My most recent photo is rather scary!

Driving home from North Yorkshire at daft o'clock with my headlights on and there was a noticable wobble as the light shone on the traffic signs. Had a good look at it today and where it was welded last time it has weakened again, you know it will give way at some highly inconvenient moment so it is off 😢. Rita is off the road.
