Mik Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Just been to look at progress on my engine. Bearings and rings all came out nice and clean. Broke part of one of the rocker shaft mounting pedestals though! So looks like it will go back together nicely. Hoping to get it back in the car this weekend and MOT tested sometime next week.Leaving it to the last minute? nah! :o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Bancroft Posted April 22, 2008 Share Posted April 22, 2008 Good luck Mik. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mik Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Well the good news is that the car is back together again. The bad news is that it's not supplying oil to the rocker shaft and I don't know why (see my other posting on the spitfire forum). Still needs an MOT too.

Beans Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Would it be possible to move that circuit to the correct side of the pond, as it looks rather interesting in Google Earth ::) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raider Posted May 4, 2008 Share Posted May 4, 2008 Here's what it looks like from a rallying point of view (after the first bit!)http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=q6A1xBeKV3EAnd this track day is the next round of the CT Driver's Challenge when i fully expect Tim Bancroft to strike back and re-take the lead ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy66 Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 What a fantastic day!! Triumphs and sunburn sure beats going to work.

Tim Bancroft Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Just got in, bit of an incident on the way home as my header tank blew a hole near Bedford, fixed with Hubba Bubba and Wrigleys spearmint! Ellis and Keith chewed well, horrid smell of strawberries all the way home for 60 miles! The gum worked and allowed for to do 90 all the way round the M25!What a track Cadwell is, must be done again-its challenging!Well done, Fred!As usual exemplary CT driving. Nearly every car had issues, still part of the fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellis Posted May 6, 2008 Share Posted May 6, 2008 Superb track, great camaradirie (as ever) - well done Fred - spot on... and thanks to our friends at MGs on Track - top organisers.Isn't it amazing and annoying how silly, cheap things can nearly ruin a day. I'll make sure I pack a spare oil filter in future. ::) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulsprint Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Great day, thanks fred. Just love cadwell park, its just a pitty the brakes failed, never seen the caliper piston melt though the pad before. Got back home with no problems, just a bit hairy at times when you had to pull up quick. got a couple of jobs to do for castle combe. (bigger brakes) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russell Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 Once again, a great day, thoroughly enjoyed it. Just checked through my in-car video footage and on the session the battery ran out I missed the moment when Fred was stopped across the circuit in front of Tom and me.Damn.Loads of other footage though, which needs editing down. I might have to do a montage of everyone else coming past me!Thanks to everyone that organised it!Russell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
