Are you any nearer with getting yours on the road Dan.


MsD - 12/4/12 at 06:48 PM

I was there last year and came away with having the target of getting mine IVA'd and up the hill this year....

... Itll be close, but Ill be a spectator again


daniel mason - 12/4/12 at 07:09 PM

exactly same as me msd! ive got iva on wednesday next week but once again will be spectating. what are you building?


daniel mason - 21/4/12 at 04:39 PM

only 3 weeks away now!


unijacko67 - 21/4/12 at 09:38 PM

Do you not fancy sending your mnr up Barbon Dan. Suppose it would be cutting it fine, not much testing time now. I wonder if the yellow s2000 will be there again.


daniel mason - 21/4/12 at 10:24 PM

its only revving to 6250 rpm safely at the moment, needs mapping in the upper rev range yet! im thinking i have a slight exhaust leak on the manifold but not sure

Nothing too exciting- Locost with a pinto in! I just fancied Barbon as a challenge- and there was a £50 bet on the line!!

Is the MNR still for sale?

Cheers, Mark.


daniel mason - 23/4/12 at 05:59 PM

its for sale at the right price, but ill register it and use it this year if no serious buyers. keep gettin offered daft part ex's on ebay and p/h so im not holding my breath!


daniel mason - 4/5/12 at 08:55 PM

bigfoot4616 - 11/5/12 at 09:00 PM

i'm planning on going, wont be in the striker though, think that field will be a bit muddy with all the rain we've had.


unijacko67 - 11/5/12 at 11:08 PM

Gona be after dinner for me Dan. Just had to put a pair of struts and a outer cv joint boot on pug 106 for daughters car, had to weld up inner wings so been a hard evening. Re test in morning then Barbon here I come. Will pop up in wifes 4 wheel drive cos got a bit stuck in van last time it was wet. Dont get me wrong I didnt need tow, but was very near. See you later.


AdrianH - 12/5/12 at 07:01 AM

Planning to head up there in the kit shortly, weather is too good to be a home on the PC, so decided to have a drive.

Going to have a look, ask questions if I get the chance and take a few snaps.

Hope the parking area does not get to muddy.

Adrian
