FloydP Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 (edited) The Gt6 is looking to have another go, I must be a masochist but after the luxury of the Stag for the last 3, I thought the Gt6 could do with another run.

Rubce Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 (edited) Our Stag "Ursula", and hopefully second time lucky for us. I feel we are much better organised and prepared this time! Bruce Edited September 9, 2021 by Rubce 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobPearce Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 This is the fourth time Toby has been entered but the first time he's likely to actually start, having had some mileage put on him since the rebuild. Here pictured in Yorkshire. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulB Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 This will be the eighth time that Eve my Spitfire has done the event. For my co-driver it will be his first. He is my son and was only 4 years old when I did my first RBRR. Both looking forward to it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carledo Posted September 9, 2021 Share Posted September 9, 2021 This is the Dolomega, a 78 Sprint with the heart of a 2001 Vauxhall Omega. MOT'd for the first time since 1994 on Sept 1st (the 43rd anniversary of it's DOFR) and with the odometer showing today a whole 77 miles since being returned to the road. Still some snagging to do, but mostly, everything seems to work! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteStupps Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Just washed and waxed my Spitfire! Second RBRR for the car and crew. 350 miles done on rebuilt engine and gearbox, just need to grease the hubs and some other minor stuff (assuming nothing major crops up in next 3 weeks) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes indeed, any excuse to get some miles on it. Will you be in yours? I'm envious of you doing it with your son, my daughter reckons she wants to have a crack at it but needs to wait 7 years until she can do her test!

PaulB Posted September 10, 2021 Share Posted September 10, 2021 Yes hopefully I’ll be in mine unless I cock up changing the brake callipers. Those seven years will fly by, it only seems a short while ago that my son was 10! He’s just turned 19 now. Where did those years go!

Tim Hunt Posted September 11, 2021 Share Posted September 11, 2021 This will be my 23rd RBRR participation in the trusty 4A and the 16th with Mike Hockaday as co-driver. Our aggregate age on this year's event will be 144 years, will that be the highest of any two-person team I wonder. Tim 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuts down road noise massively compared to soft top. Mind you, the zip is busted on the soft top, so little in the way of options! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Bancroft Posted September 13, 2021 Author Share Posted September 13, 2021 Some teriffic cars, they look excellent and will all grace the event, thanks everyone who has posted so far. Can't wait to see them all at Knebworth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MK Joe Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Love this picture of Trevor The Triumph. Team 152 - The Concrete Cows from Milton Keynes are ready to go. Only problem is, the nearer the date gets, the more I start checking and making alterations, settings and double check things that are not a problem... Is this normal? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slimboyfat Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 After much faffing we have finally decided to use one of our GT6's. It's been dormant after it's last outing to Wales in 2015 on a jolly. After the event I decided to take the 45DCOE's off it, two of which belong on the Macau Spitfire (long story) and replace with 40 DCOE's. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
