A few photos from Snetterton at the weekend courtesy of Javelin Trackdays. It was a tad slippery! Will be fitting a rain light for the next trackday, other than that, she's about ready to go again!

Just back from a gentle pre-sorn bimble around the local area. Roads were a bit wet and muddy...

Four guys, with a total age of 296 years, having a gentle run around north Wales.

I've fettled the Westfield on the scissor lift and then thought I would fettle SWMBO's mobility scooter and then my 2 year old grand-daughter's car.......

A cracking day out with the “Thunderbawz “ “ Skyfall / Bond themed” run to Glencoe, over some cracking roads to Fort Augustus then on to the Kingshouse at Glencoe then back to aviemore for alfresco pizza and Garlic bread

Lost light whilst cleaning.

Just waiting for some more carbon to arrive from Ash @Rednop1 and Mark, and plotting a fancy F1 style steering wheel 🙂

Short Circuit computer repairs in Caversham have a very good reputation

Well done chaps, great to see people still out there having fun!

Belated Birthday wishes!!

Hopefully be there for Quackers, yeah wanted to be ready for Santa run etc..

Great news Dave, hoping to meet at Quackers next Sunday (4th Dec) if the weather Gods allow it. May even get the Santa suit out for the Sunday before Christmas too!

Out and about at another wet trackday, this time my first drive on the Snetterton 300 layout. The waterproofs once again earnt their keep!

So, this afternoon, cam cover rebuilt, plug and valve gaps checked while it was all off. Cover re-fitted, everything connected back up. Engine started and run up to temp, to test. Just needs a good clean now, but hopefully good to go. Ive managed to get hold of a second hand cam cover really cheaply, ironically, because it’s been very heavily paint stripped ready for re-finishing, but someone abandoned the project. Perfect for me, cause it’s going to be re-powder coated anyway! So I can finish modifying Stu’s old S2000 inlet manifold, (from the Gulf car), modify the new cover, and get them powder coated now, without needing to keep the car off the road to do it! Then fit them in, (probably January now), as the Christmas postal strikes have slowed the delivery of some of the bits I need - vac take offs for the manifold, etc.

It's the first time I have ever had the car on the road at this time of year. Since it wasn't raining I decided to go for a run. Just a little 'nearly twilight' blast over the moors to Chatsworth, then Bakewell, on through Rowsley, up Rowsley Bar (which was very greasy on the hairpins) and back home. There was a fair amount of muck and running water on the roads, especially at Haddon Hall car park, where a motorbike leading a group had hit the mud on a corner and then slid under an oncoming van. Luckily he looked to be up and walking about but traffic was manic as a result.

Really good to see the club pursuing all avenues to keep the members informed and communicate events etc - this will definitley help when trying to draw ex-members back or indeed attract new joiners.

November is not much better. Fractured Fibia last week, 11 hrs in A & E resulting having a big boot on right leg. Had to cancel a weeks holiday in Lisbon due to fracture and was due to fly out today. Wife got the hump as she was looking forward to a weeks break from work, of course it s my fault. More sympathy required.
