Cracking day, good craic , happy with the car, apart from the short shift gearlever that's going in the bin ! , or eBay ! , Constantly missing third, just a Wooley horrible change, and thanks to the chaps for helping with adjusting my clutch to help, well deserved win for John, life in us old stagers yet ! , I also , along with Nick W had a grass excursion on first run, but nowhere as dramatic as Rich's !

Thanks to Mark for sponsoring the class, sorry I couldn't wait for my 'pot' but thanks for picking it up guys

I hope you wrong too ! yeah it's got a centre oil pick up pipe, oil pressure never dropped below 50, I have some incar to put up, once edited, it has an individual sound, it's growled like that since I built the car, no problems so far ! , it also has some very cheap demon tweets trumpets give it a rasp !

I missed a gear on the last run, Johns diff was playing up, Rich went bollard bashing and Mark was closing in so fast, if only we had got another run in ! ...

There some great pictures there and nice to see some experimentation with angles. I had a camera similar to you lads 7 years ago but soon realised the limitations of it. I guess he will be asking for an upgrade in about 6 months ;) .

Also looking at them I'm wondering were the time went because I didn't get as any shots from the paddock and never had a look round the car park, especially that Lancia Fulvia.
