I am at said location hence the question. I think I could assist said sheds owner I’m freeing up some space

Good evening, So the RBRR took its toll on my already tired engine. I have a 72 MK2 2.5PI... well that's the body of the car, the engine on the other hand is an unknown entity. I'm pretty sure its an S engine, so sticking with what I have as my pockets aren't as deep as others what modifications can I start planning on? I have heard a few things, however having never rebuilt an engine I have to confess I am not sure if there are other options available. What I have heard of is using a 348 s-head and a TR5 cam (as this could assist in increasing the ponies substantially). Are there any other mods anyone has applied to their own engines that wont break the bank?

Apologies, I left early as the wife was home with a slightly unwell toddler and I was wanting to offer some relief. Look forward to seeing you on the run

Awesome seeing everyone at the drivers briefing today. As mentioned if anyone is interested in joining the group is one that’s been resurrected from our 2021 event. So… why is it there? A central point of contact for required parts (in the event of a breakdown) tools etc. If you are in dire need of help you have a rather big team behind you. To join just the QR code below, however if you prefer to use a link I have put that below it. or use the link… https://chat.whatsapp.com/EWCrKPA43bFFbU19a1yjTc

Where is the link? Having RBRR withdrawals, need to enter. Need to know I’m getting my biannual fix

The RBRR was 2250 minimum not including a good few 300 mile round trips to do bodywork and test drives... yeah I did well. So far this year I have managed zero miles, I have some mounts and a prop to change

Redditch just south of Birmingham

Hello all, I find myself viceless after whilst using my once beloved bench vice heard a crack and then it all went horribly wrong, and it’s as though I have had a limb removed. Does anyone have a good heavy-ish duty vice surplus to requirements, maybe in need of some tlc that they don’t need anymore? Thanks in advance

I have absolutely zero complaints about the RBRR, even many many years ago when Lands End ran out of breakfast I didn't care, it's not about food or this year the worry of fuel shortages... but more about the comradery. What I really liked this year was the introduction of the Rally App Live, every time the screen turned yellow to signify approaching and arriving at a stop gave us a massive sense of achievement... I mean it worked really well. I should imagine much like with my co-driver this helped first timers when they got close to the check points. The event as a whole is a resounding success with much praise owed to the organisers, if we the "people" can do anything to help in the future please let us know as this is "our" event. My only suggestion is on the clothing front, I mentioned this on my initial conversation prior to the event to see if there were any changes etc to the team. My suggestion was for RBRR fleeces, even generic ones we can use at each event. I only suggested this as at a certain time the temperature drops our pretty epic polo shirts are all covered up.

I had created a WhatsApp group for the event which helped a few people out.

We got 27mpg in my mk2 saloon.

I can just about see things in them. They can stay ha ha ha

Eric needs a wash and the boot needs packing with relevant tools and spares, after which the headlights require a small amount of adjustment so as to not blind everyone. Stickers need to be put on the old motorway grade magnetic sheet and applied to the car. Went for a test run a few days ago and found a vibration in the steering wheel, so checked and nipped up the front wheel bearings. All in all Eric has had… Rebuilt half shafts (new uj’s) Rebuilt prop shaft Replacement coolant hoses and actual coolant… as the system was filled with mainly water. New speakers… you never know LED flood/spot lights Uprated standard headlight and main beam bulbs New go faster stickers And new period correct numberplates

Needs a wash… but here he is
