Silverstone 17th September

Should be racing at Combe next year, club has said

 

[Russ_16v]

Ooh Combe is epic - would be very interested to see your racing lap times round there

 

[Jay Payne]

Meh, combe is ok. Better circuits out there tbh, Donington, Anglesey

 

[Jamie86]

Ace will definately be there to cheer at that one!

I really enjoy Combe, more so since the track was changed - It was too fast before, even in an old Astra GTE I was clocking an indicated 130mph+

 

[Jay Payne]

As said we should be racing there but untill the calendar comes out we wont know for sure. Our club has put on a few races there this year but not our series.

 

[Russ_16v]

Cool cool, will keep my eye out mate

Will you be going for any more power at some point?

Fitted a replacement starter motor today, thanks to Whiteley (again) Bit of a fiddle, took the exhaust maifold off to make it easier but then had to drop the o/s steering arm to get the thing out. Must be a nightmare on a road car.

Found the problem with the old one. 2 bolts missing from the solenoid and the 3rd one loose. Was wobbling around. Also took the back cover off and the grease inside has got a little hot and started to set like glue (as predicted by Mr Sideways)

What manifold are you using? Will it not just come out like so?

 

[Jay Payne]

Same manifold but we have lots of pipes in the way.

 

[chrispy.clio]

Powersteering pipes? Boooooo!

I might come to silverstone if i'm free next week. Cheer you lot on

 

[Jay Payne]

Pas, brake fluid, heater hoses. plus the crank sensor wires are bolted to the block near there, didnt even entertain getting it out that way.

Be nice to see you chap, more than welcome to enjoy the hospitality. we got quite a crowd gonna be there
