Weird there isn't some form of policy available for third party indemnity - something akin to PLI in the workplace.
Asked previously but got no answer - what policies are typically used for competitive events?
Seems mental that a trackday could ever be considered a higher degree of risk for...
Whats the score with the timed/chronos trackdays in relation to these TD insurance policies the likes of Chaucer & Morris offer? Don't they specify the event musn't be timed/competitive etc similar to a road car policy?
In which case if all TDOs adopted the same format, wouldn't this...
Mike what don't you think looks.right mate? Its only the lower metal bush thats any different.
If you mean the top hats, they look to be the right ones.
So presumably someone could bring a litigation action against you for personal injury &/or property damage irrespective of an event being competitive/non competitive?
Guessing the full blown motorsport policies cover this kind of indemnity similar to a PLI policy?
Be interesting to hear a little more on the verdict.
What's the legal standpoint for participants in timed/competitive events where there's a greater likelihood of contact? Could an individual wind up in the exact same situation of being sued for damages to another participants vehicle, or...
Were the bearings and the carriers both in spec when they were first fitted? Could one side being even slightly slack have accelerated the wear you're seeing now?
Unlucky with the off dude, thankful you were able to scrub a bit of speed off. Hopefully fixing the beam shoud sort the odd handling...
Fair comment, mine were also a fairly worn set so coupled with my lack of talent was finding the back end a little nervy - imagine they'd be very 'interesting' in the damp. :p
Pressures you'd suggested seemed spot on too Fred - cheers. They warmed around 4deg like you suggested.
Be...
Yep, can see where you're coming from. :)
That said even with the steel nuts, Rsport suggest the studs are replaced each season as a precautionary measure to counter any stretch that may have weakened them.
Would it be as much of an issue on 1.25 pitch? Totally agree on a coarser pitch.
That said i've stuck with the steel Rsport nuts as they were all still pretty snug.
Defo worth getting a cordless impact wrench for the 1.25 pitch. Such a ball ache winding them on/off by hand! :banghead:
Not sure Si, they do look similar. Seems odd they don't offer the three sizes if it is AI Tech though.
68mm for the front hub if youre not using spacers and 86mm for the front for 'up to' a 25mm spacer and the rear hub if youre running 34mm length nuts.
Imagine the 100mm would jut beyond the...
But with reference to Morgans earlier comment, thats surely along the same lines of 'no one bar the specialist outfits should attempt to change a cambelt'?
Can see what you're hinting at hence my Darwin comment, but a lot of the good intentioned reasoning comes across as being overly paranoid...
