Andrew Posted February 18, 2017 Author Posted February 18, 2017 Nice photos Julie, and good to meet up. Was an enjoyable day, but could have done with some more company on track. Pete had a good session after you left with the Atom, and the white Exige. (420bhp!!) Will get a video up at some point.. Bad luck Mick with the Busa, but better safe than sorry I suppose.. Some pics from me. Definitely terrorists aboard this Morgan? 1 Quote

Andrew Posted February 18, 2017 Author Posted February 18, 2017 The shiniest Westfield in the world, parked next to the grubbiest! Quote
Andrew Posted February 18, 2017 Author Posted February 18, 2017 I got flames, but only half the car. The Pinto was miss-firing most of the day, but pretty sure it's plug leads and dizzy cap related. After swapping a few leads we got it better by the end of the day... well enough to leave a 420bhp Exige and 250bhp? Atom anyway.. Quote
Andrew Posted February 18, 2017 Author Posted February 18, 2017 Gentlemen.. start your engines. Quote
TAFKARM Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Sorry I couldnt make it in the end. Looking forward to the vids. Quote
Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted February 18, 2017 Posted February 18, 2017 Brill photo's Andrew. I will look forward to that video, Peter was a very quick driver and it's great to see the old thumper Pinto out front. 2 Quote

Yes Julie, it makes a change as you are used being in front with the old Pinto following you through the Peak District 1 Quote
Andrew Posted February 19, 2017 Author Posted February 19, 2017 I found some more flames.. just.. It'll be a shame to sort the problem and lose the fireworks. Quote
Oily Steve Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Some great photos and it looks like good track days are possible even this early in the year. Looking forward to getting on track again! Quote

Looking forward to getting on track again! Must admit, we were weather watching for this one, and booked the day before.. it's not often we get such mild weather in February. I wouldn't dare book anything weeks in advance this time of year. And, a vid. Pete driving. After he passed the white Exige, the Lotus driver latched onto the back of him, and did a fair job keeping the Westy in sight. They both caught up with the Atom and passed him towards the end. 3 Quote
Julie Hall - WSCC AO Representative Posted February 19, 2017 Posted February 19, 2017 Thanks for posting the video, Andrew. You think it's the long straight bit now the Atom will pull away, and it pulls over instead. I have been with a guy called Lee today who knows the Atom driver, he has just paid £52,000 for it, perhaps you could have offered him a swap! Did you find out if the fault was the oil pressure sensor @stickymint? Quote

It would have been nice if he'd pulled over before touching the brakes too! New underwear for Pete. Just discovered the Gopro was running when we did the meeting and greeting.. well, how do you do. 1 Quote
SootySport Posted February 20, 2017 Posted February 20, 2017 Andrew, How does a Pinto powered Westfield go so fast? I'm baffled. 1 Quote
