I have 8 scales, 2 per wheel as individually they don't go high enough. I made a box/tray for each pair for convenience and a small plank over each pair to spread the load. As Stephen mentioned, it's best to do all at once rather than one wheel at a time. More accurate and more convenient. It works well and is perfectly acceptable for our needs. Years ago, after I'd set the car up in this way I had the car dynoed at Northampton Motorsport and Troy offered to check the geo whilst it was there. He found the corner weights were so close they didn't need changing.3 points

We have for sale a rare Westfield Sei Sports Car built during 2021 and registered on 1st April 2022 as a new car. This is a fine example of this type of car and rare in the fact that it is the original classic narrow bodied style and is registered as a 2022 plate car The kit itself was originally purchased between 1992 and 1996, we have all of the documentation and receipts to prove that all of the major parts came directly from Westfield and were purchased new at that time. This includes a new engine with certificate from Ford, new gearbox and new differential. The story behind the car is that the original owner passed away, having only partially completed the build. Following this the car remained in storage until we purchased it back in 2021. We had all of the interior re-upholstered in red leather by a friend of ours who is a retired coach trimmer from Bentley Motors. As you can see from the photos, the interior is beautiful and contrasts nicely with the deep black bodywork. Reason for sale, I just don't get to use her enough so she's wasted on me. The car has covered less than 1000 miles since completion Specifications are as follows... Ford 1600cc CVH Engine never started until 2021 (New) Webber Twin 40 DCOE carburettor's (New) 5 Speed Type 9 Gearbox (New) Fords Sierra Differential (New) Fully independent rear suspension Traditional Swept Wings Full Red Leather Interior, trimmed to a very high standard Heater VDO Instruments Full Red Harnesses Choice of wheels either 13" Minlite Style or 15' Fox Racing This is a really nice car, looking for an enthusiast to take care of it £12500ono1 point

Hope Dan's checks are going to plan. I can offer a whole and single degree of temperature with lots of sunshine . My route will be on the big roads up to the Ladybower Reservoir's so the views will be just stunning. Wrap up warm and prepare to feel alive🤩1 point

@GPRich Gareth, if you want to go back to the original matching rim and 205 tyre, you'll need a new number plate bracket - I shortened the one on 'our' car for the number plate to sit snug behind the 165 tyre. Someone on here might have one they removed from their car.1 point

Please find below the 2024 Speed Series Calendar, it's taken quite a while to get to and there has been a lot of discussion about which events to go to as a Championship. We need to ensure that we get a reasonable number of our competitors attending any specific event for it to remain on the Calendar ie 5 or more competitors. For 2024, some events that didn't reach that have still been included, but they will be up for review at the end of the Year if we have a poor attendance. If you favourite event is not on here, then you should still be able to go as membership of WSCC and our Motorsport UK membership / affiliation with Regions means that you have a good chance of your entry being accepted by the Event Organisers.

I've got a 2014 F30 330d so same engine and gearbox and it's a great set up. Gearbox is really good,even better once you get it remapped👌 My car can tow 1800kg,it pulls my race shuttle with my kit car in it at 1400kg like theres nothing attached 😁1 point

OK, Dont laugh, but I have reasonably succesfully used heavy duty bathroom scales (that go up to 250Kg). I weigh each corner at a time, ensuring its all completely level (use wooden height adjusters / planks on the 3 wheels not being weighed). Real cheapscate solution (scales are £20 from amazon). Happy to be ridiculed, but for a rough guide I have found it pretty good... (Waits for incoming.....!)1 point

I’m comfortably bigger than 100kg and fit my standard Westfield sports seats just fine. So try those as a starter.1 point

I've just spoken with @Benrobson2999 - Kent AO and we've played a game of twister, where he holds the phone, a mulitmeter, a red probe and a black probe and I then tie him in knots 😉 via the phone. We've confirmed his battery negative isn't connected to the chassis and I've suggested he bolts the two cables on his battery isolator to one post on it, to effecrtively bypass it. I'm awaiting his call to confirm he's running......................1 point
