Ran out of luck / talent today at Oulton...

My spinner was an Invictar ??. The blue Westy owner never mentioned anything and is very chilled anyway, we can discuss this over a few beers on Friday as usual he's my drinking pal, no worries at all. Even if we looked busy it was all part of the plot, any time/next time just drop in

A good day out but checking my video I did not have it recording during a lot of my laps, doh never mind. Some nice motors as well that Beemer was flying but I'm told has shed loads of suspension and upgrade bits onboard. Quite a lot of courteous driving seen as well, I just kept out of everyones way - I hope.

 

Cheers

 

Bob :)

Cheers for the kind words chaps! We both turned out totally fine and the car should be ready to roll tomorrow if I get a couple of hours on it.

 

Main delay has been waiting for my tank to come back to me having been repaired (2 weeks!) but I made use of the time to convert my brakes to twin masters (I'd bought the parts on the Friday before the track day, sod's law!).

 

Oh - and about the wishbone bolt thing, mine were in 'backwards' (nut facing the tank). Luckily the depressions in the tank, the fact that is has a rear ARB (the mounting bracket takes up a thread or two of the bolt) and a bit of wood acting like an IVA protection bar did enough to stop it puncturing. They will be coming out and being swapped over before re-assembly though!

Great news Adam and good to hear you've got it turned around so quickly :t-up:

 

Hope to meet you out on track in the new year

It was your post Adam that got me to pick up the IVA kit with the chassis; things like the tank protection bar I want to be having permanently fitted, which may or may not mean a bit of jigging around with the ARB. Easier to do at the body off stage though.
