My wife’s first ride in the Westfield. I don’t know where she thinks she is going to put that shopping? 😁

Washed and polished then a run out for a few miles stopped off at the Thomas Telford bridge

Nice evening out....

So you’re saying you’d like another one instead? Okay...

Only the same price as the standard grp ones from WF

Methinks it'll be the long way home from work tonight 😎

The magnificent 13 and the dodgy spanish. Its going to be a laught

Thank you all for your help and advice. I gave that nice man Mr Westwood a deposit on Tuesday and so I guess i will start a build thread in September...... In the meantime, I need to collect together some of the tools I don't have but guess that if I search the forum I will find lots of suggestions and stuff for sale that has only been used once. BFN

Yep he is a good guy that know his stuff and get excellent power figures

There is a falcon 9 rocket launch today that passes over UK a few minutes later at 21:55 On Thursday 25th June 2020 we are in for a treat. We can watch a SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket launch a new batch of 60 Starlink satellites live from Cape Canaveral, Florida. Around 15 minutes later, the very same rocket and its payload of 60 Starlink satellites should be quite visible as it passes over the UK after launch. What Time? The Starlink launch is expected at 21:39 BST (UK Time). This may change so stay up to date on launch timings with @VirtualAstro on twitter and Facebook. The final stage of the rocket and its cargo of satellites should be visible approximately 10 – 15 minutes after launch. So, start looking at 21:55 if the launch goes to plan. Give yourself a few minutes leeway either side. Please note: Northern areas of the UK may not be able to see the spacecraft immediately after launch due to sunset times, especially in Scotland. However, you should be able to see the satellites on consecutive passes. Follow @VirtualAstro on twitter and Facebook for info. https://www.meteorwatch.org/

We all know he prefers our wetter climactic conditions! 🤪😁

Here they are just out the moulds

Hi Folks with the anticipated removal of the 5 mile rule on the 3rd July in Scotland. Who fancies the Glenshee run on the 12th? Food places will still be sporadic, petrol stations are open , so it may be flask and sandwiches. if folk fancy it let me know and I’ll get organised

Been up to Daytuner in Harrogate today to get megabusa remapped. Was there 5 hours sorted out all little issues I had and managed to squeeze out another 15-20bhp 👍👍 so running 160bhp and 96 torque. Would strongly recommend Damian

Many happy returns @maurici

Modem is not the same thing as a router, some routers incorporate the modem (I personally don't like that). ISP routers are junk, I use an Asus RT-AC66U. Not sure why you're using powerline adaptors, I wouldn't unless I absolutely have to (I have one in my shed for Garden wifi), when I moved here the first thing I did was run Cat-6 throughout the house, with business grade 100/1000 network switches doing most of the work and I only use one LAN port on my router to stop the router having to handle general network traffic. Are the powerline adaptors all connected as they were previously and on the same ring main? Does one of those powerline adaptors have a WiFi access point built in? (i've had DHCP issues / conflicts with my router before now) Another thing which is less likely in your situation, but something I had throw me a curve ball a few months ago, i'd got 3 PCs fighting over which one was the master browser, and this was screwing up my streaming box, I had to change registry settings on all my PCs so that the router could remain as master browser.

"OEM"-ish broadband modems are, in my experience, utter crap at routing for more than "average people" needs. The PC gets a significant amount of traffic from IP cameras, that tend to be versed in the dark art of crappy packets and broken frames. I ditched any form of network over mains because they are usually coping with regular people needs (i.e youtube, netflix, facebook) and tend to defecate on themeselves if you use them for mundane things like extending network with an access point. Again, broken frames and funky packets were seen thanks to wireshark. Red light might mean broken sync (at low level) or something benign as "cannot reach dns". Long story short, I had great and reliable network performance on day two, when I used the operator provided device as a """modem"", and plugged it in something more serious, like a decent home router (with an alternative firmware for mundane things like VPN, QoS and ad cleaning, basic needs...). So my advice would be "get a nice netgear or tp link router, with bgn / ac / WIFI 6, flash it with openwrt firmware, and plug the modem direct in it, deactivate any form of routing and wifi on the damn cable-operator-provided thing, oem devices are crippled with limitations that show up when you have more than two ipads at home"

Complaints to @Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO please

Lionel 2 will hopefully complete tonight now we have all the bits including the one from you.

Can you get carbon carbon arch protectors 😁

14 sleeps 🤪

Hope you have a sunny birthday @maurici. 🎂😎

Happy Birthday

🎂🍻 @maurici

Enjoy your day @maurici Andy

Many happy returns @maurici enjoy your day!

Keep me posted and I’ll see if we round up a few injuns to attack , I mean welcome y’all’s

And the North Eastern Posse are still hopeful of being up your way between the 16th and 2Oth - with Glenshee being a “must do” part of our tour 👍 Its looking like we will possibly be based at Gairloch for three nights instead of flitting about as originally planned - but all still a tad “wait and see” for the minute.

I could be up for this provided I'm not away on holiday. It's in the diary for now. Very excited about getting the car out the garage and finally getting to drive it for the first time this year.

I make it 14 now with scotty, this is going to be special

Whoops I nearly missed that John . MHR mate

Sadly the Shamal is now sold, but there is a video of Harry Metcalfe testing it on "Harry's Garage" (on YouTube). I replaced it with a 2-seat version of the Maserati MC-Stradale which is the fastest road Maserati built (excluding the Maserati MC-12, their copy of the Enzo). Latest on my Westy is that it might finally be ready for collection next week. The problem this week was that the trailer needed new tyres. But on the upside, I've now been told the MD of Westfield has a photo of my car on his office wall! I'll have to check that out in person one day.

Due to the fact that our championship is cancelled we will not be issuing any speed series registration cards this year. If anyone is attending an event and need a card please contact me by email ( terry.everall@gmail.com) and I will issue an email that will cover the situation

Try again.. Chasing @Mole Last session of the day.. .. and a bonus vid. Chasing after a couple of Caterhams.

And it is “off” by default.

@Ian Kinder (Bagpuss) - Joint Peak District AO is to blame for this.

Just seen on the Lotus Seven forum that the Council upheld the decision to keep the area closed to speed trials etc night before last!!!!! Petition still open.... Mart.
