pigs fly should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Sorry Grant should have said the TCM race was broadcast before the V8s over here, don't know when or if Motors TV will show them. BUT here's a small list of cars involved : Mustangs, Camaro's, Falcon Sprint, Falcon GTHO, Torana SLR5000, Porsche plus others.

Bargain, Al!

Paisleyfreight do good delivery prices for car parts that other couriers won't carry, in my experience! (Mind you, Colchester is only up the road for you, and in an LPG Dayvan its probably cheaper to collect yourself! )

Hehe.

I was using the lighter one Gary.

Very worrying really. I think I need a fitness regime. Or a minion who takes instruction well.

Or, thinking about it sensibly, a minion more able than I so I don't need to provide pointless instruction and attempted guidance.

Ah, well, I didn't. Just turned out like that. Seems the Volpini can sometimes be backbreaking work.

In this case a small enough problem that was not quite as easy to fix as one might have imagined. As is the way with "simple" things that "hardly ever fail". (My quotes, not Iain's)

Agreed. Some cars are pure art. Function doesn't always follow form.

They think of everything in Spain.
Had a smashing test half hour at Brands today, got the Fiesta down nearly into the 55 sec's, that thing is a lot of fun to drive and there is a lot more to come.

This is my friendly robin who built a nest on my oil filter shelf last year, she decided to build it amongst a load of old wheel trims last week and is quite happy to sit there all day with me working close by.

Little place called Berchules. Already half way up the mountains so saves a lot of effort. Local guy brews a "real ale" called black goat. Absolutely disgusting

Bloody mobiles.
Lost my Samsun Galaxy mobile phone at Brands yesterday, didn't realise how much stuff you store on the bloody things, how much trouble to cancel everything as well.

You say "lost" or did someone nick it ? I had mine stolen at Snetterton and that caused loads of problems !
