Stoneleigh was pretty decent, spent all day wandering around. Dunno if i saw any of yu cos i dunno what you all look like but i know J30FOS was there with his MK on the stand

OK so i dont have my pics yet as i still have a real camera with a film

But i should have some pics from the Caterham track where they were taking people for a ride.

Pics of the new GTS bodywork, the Lotus 11 by GTS, several of the Cobras, J30FOS car , yadder yadder.... they will go in the archive sooner or later!

Cheers
David

Dammit, I missed GTS again? How do I do it? I missed them/him at Exeter (an impossibility you might think) and now I miss him at Stoneleigh!! Didn't see any mention in the programme, so assumed he wasn't there.

Forgot to take my camera, duh! GTS definitely there. Seemed to be fewer car/kit suppliers this year and more componenent suppliers.

That'll be why I came away the best part of 600 notes poorer!

Yes. I was impressed by the cad drawings they had displayed. I wasn't so impressed by the world's dullest bodywork.

Sorry to inturrupt.It may touch the axle if you are using zeemerides or to longer springs(!?)Mine just touches with zeemrides.I am aware that these are/were in somecases supplied to long in the past(someone on here has had this problem also).All I've done is not measure them for one...And fit bump stops on the lower rails for when air bourne(This has proved okay so far as tested at Brimham Rocks N.Yorks,Those who know the area can vouch how humpy this road is).

Only saw 2 1/2 cars in the locost area today. Where did you all go. The 1/2 car looked really smart a miniture 7 electric motor power. Must be the one you can build for under £250. Didn't get a picture of it

I had to park in the overflow locost carpark yesterday, it was full. I'm glad I went yesterday as it rained here this morning and I wouldn't have set off in it.





yours, Pete

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

Hi All,

It was a good day on Sunday. Burnt me head :-) It was a shame we were so far from the stalls. Pass through Birmingham at 8pm was real fun, the first time driving at 85MPH in the rain, was eventfull That screen from MAC#1 was great, didn't get wet at all. I've never seen so many camera phones pointing at me car driving back.

I've posted some pics in this section under convoy on the M6

Pointy,
Have fixed lower coil-over attachment brkts to rear axle so that there is 18/16mm clearance, on full drop.

BTW - Used Darren Georges Nitron units. OK so far, but car not yet up & running.

hi,

I have posted a bunch of pics in my archive st 1 to st ?

was interested in the rebodyed mk 442D0015 442D0016 looks a lot like a

also liked the one shown in 442D006 442D007 made in hull no less

I really like the idea of a single seater f1 styled car however 442B008 and paticuly 442B009 show the back end in a bad light I think.
