carpetstu Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 Back safe and sound. Jeffro thnx for a great run!! and the rest of the crew! Not bad and the Wales jinx didn't cause much bother apart from a lost wiper arm (more due to the factory not screwing the damn thing on properly after the new windscreen fillet was installed). Oh and my pocket seems alot lighted after the fuel stops --- how many miles did we do ? Quote

Crazy Eddie Posted July 20, 2008 Posted July 20, 2008 Great stuff lads glad you had a good run. What happened to Oliver's car (I hope nobody took photos! ) Shame you couldn't have come a bit more north - you could have all had a laugh at my Grid Start Technique Quote

What happened to Oliver's car (I hope nobody took photos! ) Split Hydraulic Hose on His Clutch Mate Hopefully Everything will now be ok for Him About time He had some Luck How did You get on with the First Race outing Have Maclaren F1 been on the Phone Mate Quote
Fent Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 sorry misread speedo 351miles not 315 miles 60 quid in fuel top day out I wish I could get 351 miles for 60 notes. I must say that was a cracking route. It's great to finally get out for a club run as I know I have missed a few recently. I don't know how many miles I did but I voted for the scenic run home rather than the quick route and I am glad I did as we managed to get a good run back without too much traffic.I am gonna be doing some of these roads again very soon as I sort a camping trip out in the near future. I don't want to jinx anything but it was a great feeling to go out with the car running the best it ever has (oh god, whats gonna happen now) and be able to give it the beans and not hold back. Thoroughly enjoyed myself despite the arseache which is still f**king killing me. I'm just off now to see how much more foam I can pack on my seat. Look forward to the next run and hope we get the weather to get a few more good uns in. See you all soon Fent Quote
Morbius Posted July 21, 2008 Posted July 21, 2008 Sorry I missed this, it was good last year and the weathre this year was better. Glad it went well for you. Would have loved to come but I was marshalling a few miles south of Aberystwyth at Llys y Fran. Quite an eventful day with three major offs (no one hurt except pride, but a fair bit of bent metal and mangled plastic). FWIW, I would have spent about £55 doing 350 miles on a run, assuming about £1.19 for unleaded. Add about 50% for track type mileage. Quote
jeffro Posted July 22, 2008 Posted July 22, 2008 Hi Morbius I had hoped you would make it this year but you can't do it all mate still ,next year. Thanks to all that did make it & the kind words,also to my better half for assisting with the dummy run on Monday, in all a good day Thanks everyone jeffro Quote
In my dust Posted July 24, 2008 Posted July 24, 2008 I don't suppose anyone knows where I can get a hydraulic clutch pipe assembly with an M10F AF11 male conic in copper on one end, an M12F AF13 male conic in steel on the other end and an anti-vibration flex section in the middle about 35cm long over-all? Or at least similar for less than the £120 I've already been quoted!! Quote
perksy Posted July 24, 2008 Author Posted July 24, 2008 Can You not get one made up at a Hose suppliers Mate Shrewsbury brakes & hoses used to be good but they've gone now Quote
