More than likely the last trackday of the year, after that, not sure what to do with it. Time will tell!

Was thinking the same ^

HA! Idle control valve yeah. No need to take the T/B off, it sits just to the left of it. Grey plug on the top, cylindrical looking thing, pipe to the inlet manifold just to the left again. Take it off and soak it in brake cleaner or similar and/or hit it with a hammer.

Must have been too quick with that JMS airbox on! Go steady :)

Cleaned the ISCV? Rediculously common problem with them.

Hai. Quick bump. Another trackday down at Mallory last weekend for the RTOC National Day, really enjoyed it. The good news is that I didn't have to touch a tool all weekend and my windscreen hasn't yet cracked! :D Yes it's still in primer, meh. Oulton Park a week tomorrow on...

It's plenty big enough, no idea how busy it'll be though being a bank holiday. To save me searching, what time are we all meeting? I'll send a few texts out too.

They had it attached to an old land drover to pull it off the flatbed.... he was sat there with smoke POURING off the clutch, that was rather funny. :star:

Note it was Right hand drive! This is what hit it and burst into flames: Motorsport can be dangerous, luckily both drivers walked away :)

Cracking plate!

Re: Run to Lady Bower and surrounding areas? :(

Quoted from elsewhere Made me chuckle!

Deary me.

Newark road, past the Rookery Lane junction at about 5.30 yesterday afternoon. Any takers?

Yep, provisionally sold now though :)

I had to translate from Fox to English and then into Daniel!

Oi, that's what I typed for you many moons ago! Oh, i read your post above too. Lol!

No we didn't actually, completely forgot to be honest. I wasn't pushing too much in the wet, shame it only started to dry a little towards the end of the day :(

Definitely Nimbus that is, same as my Trophy :) Very jealous!

Forgot about this. I'll come. Clio if its dry, Meg if its raining.

Re: Mk1 F4R/172'd Track Car Project Blue Mk1 Escort spun right infront of me round Gerards :cool:

Thats Coops' 1.8 16v Turbo. Anyone fancy Oulton on the 1st September for £175? I have a place spare. Should be £229 :)

OEM springs off dampers? No need if you're not going to be reusing the top mount. The whole unit can come off the car as one; undo top nut and two bolts out the hub.

Another shameless plug of Grays Ph1, it's a genuinely good and quick car built to an excellent spec, with a rediculously strong engine! Re. the spring compressors, just buy a new set of top mounts to go on the coilovers and you don't need to touch the awful things :star:

Good to see you and the car at the weekend Tom. Looking forward to Oulton now too :)

Good stuff :) What was the problem?

And this is what 172 lame donkies look like on full n/a power!! :clown:

Absolutely loved this car, looked superb at the weekend. Nice meeting you too. My multicoloured-mobile in your pic too :)
