  8. It is, until you realise that "Ian" is a fake name and he's been wanted by the authorities for some time now, so he's used to running far and fast.

  11. Highly recommend @Maurici- CleaR Motorsport for his car geometry set up service 😎👌 Corner weighting and geometry done on my car after I converted my wishbones to fully Rose jointed. Great value and excellent knowledge on the settings and explains the differences settings should make. Wet drive home so couldn't push the car but felt very stable with noticeable differences in how it turns in etc👍

  30. Decided I wanted DRLs to improve the look and safety whilst driving on the road. I opted for a set of AliExpress LED Dominators, I prefer the smaller shell vs other larger units. Having bought the wrong versions first time, blue halo ring 🤦‍♂️the correct version arrived. After wiring in a new relay, some resistors and diodes I now have DRLs, Side Lights, Head Lights and Main Beam.

  31. I fitted some fancy led bulbs in my Dominators, made a huge difference but like @Naranja_Al I don't tend to drive at night. If I did often, I would want something better for sure.

  36. Hi We in the (east mids amd Norfolk) did this 2 years on the trot now and it is consistently a great show. Lots of stuff going on (as it is a country fayre) and north of 1200 cars of all types to oggle at. https://kimboltoncountryfayre.com No need for a booking code this year, just let me know if you are booked and i will add you to the numbers for our stand. Date is Sunday 13th July. Earlybird ticket booking is £10.00 for car and driver. Passengers are an additional £2.50 each. A screenshot below of the site plan to give you all an idea of the show size, venue. Please let me know if planning to come along 👍 I have been promised a spot on the square in front of the castle, its a nice flat playing field perfect for our cars.

  39. Indeed, some of these older cars with the classic Ford engines don't seem to have been getting much love recently! But it's easy to forget the Crossflow, nicely tuned is probably one of THE most charismatic engines in a Westfield - on twin Webers, at full chat, the sound is like few other engines. Don't rule cars out, just cause they don't have a more modern looking 16 V motor in there.

  45. Apologies if I’ve posted this elsewhere. I had wanted a table sign for our meets to make it easier for new members to identify us, so I 3D printed this. Someone then suggested lighting it up, so I did 🤪🤣. Just battery powered with some LED strips 👍. Must have too much time on my hands, thought it never feels like it!

  47. Hello all Just a few quick points before posting your For Sale ad, which will help everyone - and a point to buyers as well. To the seller Please do not post adverts on behalf of non-WSCC members, as this is against club rules and such adverts will be removed You may post an advert on behalf of another WSCC member if they are not computer literate and cannot do so themselves As there are occasional and sad circumstances where an existing or lapsed member is no longer able to post, you may also post an advert providing you have the OK from the committee Please include a price! Or as a minimum, a guide price on your advert, it's ok to say "or nearest offer" or to ask for offers in the region of a specified amounts. But adverts with no price at all may be removed by the moderation team. The selling of a vehicle log book without the associated chassis and/or sufficient parts necessary to be legally described as a genuine donor kit is prohibited. Any such ad will be deleted by the Moderation Team and the member warned Be prepared for fun and games if you decide to advertise your parts in other places such as auction or social media sites and please, if you do, make sure you say so in your advert Once an item has sold, it is your duty as the seller to communicate with the buyer quickly and efficiently, and to send / arrange collection of the item(s) sold as rapidly as possible. Please do not leave buyers in the dark - communicate with them, they can't read your mind. When you have successfully completed the sale, please edit your original post and topic title (using the "Use Full Editor" option) to indicate is has been "Sold!". It can be quite a let-down for excited people with money to spend to spot something for sale, only to read through a long thread and find out it's no longer available, as I'm sure you can appreciate. Marking it as "Sold!" is the polite thing to do! Thank you for your cooperation, and best of luck with your sale! To the buyer Do not post "dibs" or "first dibs" - this isn't primary school. If you want it, just make the effort and buy it. Posting up "dibs" can result in others turning away from the ad, and if the person who posted "dibs" then changes their mind, the seller has to start all over again. Any response post in the Parts For Sale section containing "dibs" may be deleted at the absolute discretion of the Moderation Team - you have been politely warned! Although we are good bunch with much integrity, please do remember the old adage of "buyer beware" Please do pay as soon as you can and within the limits agreed with the seller To ALL The WSCC holds no responsibility or accountability for parts bought and sold. The Club merely facilitates the advertising of such things as member benefit and does not provide a transactional service. Thank you...
