    Bump!
    @foxdie popped round yesterday to give me a hand with some more tuning on the Anglia, pulling around 20psi and wheelspin in 3rd in the dry!

    Hopefully that'll help next weekend with my times!

    So what's the plan? Arrival time? Are families/kids going?

    Convoying there for 9 depends on if the family are coming. Convincing Vicky to leave early will be tricky, the kids will be impossible!

    The littlen will be with me and as Nick says the early start will only increase the chances of tantrums later on. I will probably aim to get there for about 10am. Im only about 45 mins away so once me and the nipper are both up and she has had something to eat etc etc, we will set off. Depending on the weather/temperature we could again end up leaving slightly before everyone else but this will depend on how many hours straight I can put up with 'Daddy its cold' 'Daddy its raining' 'When are we going?!' comments haha.

    Just shows the the engine is making good torque and the clutch is holding.
    Plus the slick tyres are holding the road.
    There is always going to be a weak point in the link when you start pushing things.
    One of life's little test.

    I've been expecting the driveshafts to let go at some point, I'm surprised that they lasted this long! These ones were cut and welded back together, and the plan was to always get proper ones made up, but when they worked, and allowed me to do 50 runs on slicks at Pod, there was no point in replacing them! Now is obviously their time!

    It's reasons like this that I bought the trailer, so I didn't have to worry about going to an event like this, using the car hard, and figuring out how to get it home again!
