Arrived last weeek Decided I need a roadlegal Westfield, as with track one is lot of work, not much driving (one trackday a month is a lot of preparations etc) , and anyway I had a podium with track westfield so often ( how humble ) , so ... decided to buy a chasis with road legal papers to be able to register here in Poland . Not only chasis, but without an drivetrain as I hope I can manage it myself, and due to this the taxes and dutes was lower Thanks to @RJRWesty for patience with completing car to my 'specification' and for a fair deal! Seems to be a busy winter and maybe spring. I.E. I did not know that one SEiW is not equal other SEiW - and my hope for installing my spare MT75 gone after seeing the narrower tunnel intended for type9 gearbox. But there is bright side of this - more place for foot , which is always good for road car and my and my sons rather big foots . Type 9 already ordered here in Poland as well as Sierra propshaft, heard that could make a short Westfield propshaft out of the Sierra one. Well there is after first glance more differences between this and my first Aerorace. First impression is - oh, how much easier is to build a track car than road! so much simpler ! no heater, no, windsceen, no wipers, no speedometer, no lights, no handbrake, no worry about gealcoat and paint etc etc... Anyway, happy but little worried if I can manage completing it and properly register, hope so , and so could send here pictures from trips with this red arrow !

Had a quick charge about this afternoon. The ole heated jacket is still tip top accessory I’ve bought!

For anyone that thinks it is a bit cool for coming out in your Westfield and then sitting outside, it is forecast to be 6 degrees on Sunday morning, that is much warmer than the 1 degree it was in Matlock Bath today, plus you might be wearing more clothes too. Tip - I recommend wearing a few more clothes 😃 You will not necessarily be in the company of the mentally sane though.

Oh, go on then 😛

I hope you like brackets…..

just to finish up this thread woohoo sim card arrived and all working, finally richard gets into the 21st century....

I saw a comment on this fiasco I liked. Some proposed rule changes. 5 laps under the safety car generates a red flag. No pit stops under a safety car. No work on cars under a red flag. Basically, that removes to a large degree the lottery element of crashes influencing the result.

I think that we will cope with a lesser make of car joining us😄 @BillyPee you can't miss this one, a combined Porsche and Westfield meet, that is right up your street!

I should also be there but will be in the 911 if you don't mind a non Westfield coming along?

Sounds like someone has got themselves sucked into smart phones and the endless available Apps after reading the post from yourself????🤣

isn't there an app for that...😄

Still not started the 1st episode yet. Sounds like I've a bit of catch up to do😬

Well it’s taken me while to work out how I work the internet on this thing hopefully this will post

Booked🤪

Booked👍

LH will be back. This is theatre now to keep us entertained there is no way he will quit unless he thinks he cannot win. With GR it all depends on if they let him go for wins on equal terms to LH, he is quick and hungry to do well. Bottas was where he was because he was a willing subservient to LH. Where Nico and LH were allowed to race on equal terms Nico won a championship, so LH was beatable in an equal car and footing. The rules need clarity and this nonsense of the team principles being allowed to question the race director during the race needs to stop. Next year MV needs to win fair and square to stop the negative comments from people.

Thanks Glen. I will get Harvey on to it 😉

Many thanks for the welcome guys. And we are in Radcliffe on Trent, Nottingham. And i will post some pics when we get a bit further. Brake and fuel lines done so far and i think all ok (i hope). Next job the wiring loom, which has come all nicely labelled up but I'm not quite sure where to start with it. Is the manual a bit vague here or is it just me ? I will have a dig around on some build diaries. Bye for now, Mark (& Harvey)

cheers, i have since posting this morning learnt that, so i assume that the sites requesting what size you want just pre-select the size for me before dispatch. also some good news in the last hour, my cousin tells me the phone was purchased sim free, as she went with her mum to buy it i think, so that's one less thing to worry about. i suspect you may be right, as per usual, richard turns up to the party late once again. been meaning to get one for months now, but there had to be a really good reason why first.

Fitted - and working as well as it was before ☺️. Thanks very much again Chris. Don't you just love the camaraderie in this club?

Good drills, Gary! I trust that you are doing your mad Westie tours of the snowy Highlands in a kilt of finest plaid! And given the weather, we might excuse a mini hot water bottle in your sporran!
