Hello Everyone For many of you, I probably don’t need much of an introduction—I’m that guy with the weird accent and a rather flamboyant driving style in the Speed Series! For those who don’t know me as well, I’m Maurici, an Automotive and Motorsport Engineer originally from Mallorca. I’ve been based in the UK since 2015, working with a major OEM. I had the privilege of being taken under the wing of Adam Read (AdamR on the forum), and over the years, I’ve worked closely with him on car builds, testing, setups, and countless laps on the track. I’m thrilled to announce that after a period of downtime, Clear Motorsport is back in action! I’ll be running it myself from a humble but professionally equipped garage in Leighton, Cheshire. My goal is to provide a service I truly believe the area has been missing—combining expertise, passion, and a personal touch. You can check out the official presentation post here: clearmotorsport.co.uk The website and post content are still under construction, but you’ll get a good idea of what’s on offer. The contact details are fully up-to-date, so feel free to reach out—I’d love to chat about cars and help you take your vehicle to the next level! Looking forward to hearing from you all. Cheers, Maurici clearmotorsport.co.uk

I have to say that even with a bit of back and forth with the Agreed value for The Lobster, that I think was more the underwriter than Thatcham... it was an absolute pleasure dealing with Richard Spencer... Amazing knowledge of my Westfield and nothing was too much of a surprise taking in account is a one off. Not only that, but this year, they managed to Improve the quote of my engine swapped MR2, and when I dealt with Thasha for my former extremely modified Saxo, had a similar experience. Insure a car like this with so little trouble is mainly impossible where I'm coming from, and even once in uk the European driving license has sometimes been a problem and many times ended with some sort of gray deal, what an immense pleasure finding the Thatcham branch.

Yep..I am waiting until he opens his Norfolk operation!!

Great news. I will be booking in the rebuild if I ever find time and motivation to get it finished.

Sounds like a plan..

All the best for the new adventure @Maurici- CleaR Motorsport

Bagpuss already booked in. I've not had a geo since I built my car. Great to have someone with @Maurici- CleaR Motorsport skills available to members and even better he's fairly local!

Well done Maurici it will be great for people to benefit from your experience and help...

Thank you so much for this feedback! I'll pass it on to Richard and Tash it really makes our day when we get feedback

Congratulations & good luck with the new business & reckon you’ll be filling you’re appointments from WSCC After a front end refurb in Feb 24 & rear end planned for Feb 25, I’ve want to have the Geo set up & will reach out as soon as I’m ready.

Quite right - I think you’ll find that I’M the one who causes confusion around here. Although I could use a sidekick… (Apologies unnecessary, no worries )

Another year for Bagpuss! Roo will be happy

What better way to celebrate my 10th consecutive insurance policy with Howden, than with another great price and efficient, friendly process.

Sombody told me that you have access to sleeping premises near to the Manchester footballers houses... I'm sure we can arrange a session prior a trackday in oulton park.

And a Westfield Court, connecting to it! Both added - I sense a chance for an easy two points for you!

Colin McRae, Richard Burns, Malcolm Wilson, Roger Clark. I could go on. Richard Burns died the same day as George Best. Lots of news coverage about Best, a man who died from his self inflicted lifestyle. Given numerous chances, but ultimately killed himself and hardly anything about Richard Burns.

for its Colin McRae and Richard Burns as I watched them a lot with dad in morning on the weekends when I was young and also there PlayStation games mega good lol.

This. There is no obvious "weak points" that you will be able to fix on the roadside. There is lack of build quality... And that is everybody's own and each car. How come a well maintained nova will still run oem cables 30 years down the line, and an under driven toy car needs to carry spares? Tyre plugs, a few cable ties and graffa tape... (To sort possible bodyworks mishaps) And means to inflate a tyre... And not much more should be needed. The car is made based on oem stuff... Do you carry an starter motor, a set of coolant hoses and spare fluids in your daily when commuting? My advice... Do an accelerated wear test (drive it like stolen on track a few times) fix the issues that arise (they will). Repeat. After this... Nothing trivial should break.

@Steve G. we're in the process of buying a house on the north side of Romsey. If all goes to plan we should be in there March latest and my Westy will come out to play 1st April. I'm retired so usually up for anything Westfield related.
