Lift on GT cam (re 'Race Juice)
Couple of points.
Brett and I were having our car (no.41 - dog slow all weekend, comes into the pit lane after loosing a mudguard, gets out behind James Harris, gets a
good tow round the circuit, clocks 6th fastest lap.....I get home 2 hours later than planned after a miserable weekend) checked at the same time Tims
was and for the same things - the carbs were checked and the maximum valve lift was checked. If you're interested the maximum lift allowed
was/is 9mm and Tims engine was within that limit.
What a few of us want is the actual profiles of the cams checked properly and that should be happening within the next two races
Tim is a very good driver (and a realy nice bloke too as is his dad) so I hope this will all be found to be a storm in a teacup with a couple of
spoonfulls of jealousy stired in. It'll make the rest of us look like incompetant muppets when it's properly checked and found to be OK
thought wont it....................

Seconded - he and his dad saved my Sunday's racing finding me a replacement bolt for the one I snapped when I changed the water pump on Sunday
morning. If it hadn't have been for their efforts, my parents and friends coming to see my first race meeting would have had a wasted (200
mile) trip.
(and I don't need Tim or anyone else to make me look like an incompetent mupper..... )
Raced a Locost for a couple of years, then bought an Elise.
Now back building a Fisher Fury, can't yet decide on V8 power (which I already have waiting to go in) or some kind of V6 (which I'd have
to buy, when I can sell the Elise, if I sell the Elise).
I'm not the most decisive person in the world.
