Been having some trouble getting any video sorted, mainly due to Windows Movie Maker constantly crashing my PC.
Anyway here's a bit I've managed to upload :-

driven at a more sympathetic pace the 'oily' problem seemed to pretty much disappear, but I've obviously got some issue that need
sorting before the next track outing. Spending half the day mopping up puddles of the slippery black stuff was starting to become a bit tiresome.....!
The underside of the car had a good wash on the way home though....
Is it a crossflow geoff? Mine used to blow loads out of the breather on trackdays - like half a pint in 5 laps.

One of my vids is here: YouTube
Quite pleased with the GoPro camera. There's another one processing on youtube as well. I'll do some more when I get a chance.

.....was once, but has been a k-series for the last few years.
Pulled the cam cover off today to find that the oil separator gauze is missing from behind the breather outlet. Would be nice to think that's
the cause, but it seems to be breathing fairly heavily from the crankcase. My guess is that it has succumbed to the 1.8k habit of breaking the piston
ring lands when given a thorough thrashing.....
Guess I'll have to pull the motor out before the next track outing - I've got a spare 1.6k under the bench, these don't seem to
break pistons like the 1.8 so I might give that a try, a lot more free revving too by all accounts. Only other option is a set of forged pistons, but
at £500 a throw that ain't gonna happen.....
