should be good and you really have saved the best till last that will be awsome day

[thebiggreenthing]

so how many people are absolutely no where near ready ?
i am

[redrodant]

LRS Team 14, Nowhere near ready, fueltank relocation, rollcage instalation, winch upgraid, chassis mods, new wings & arches, wiring and station wagon to pickup cab, all started, nowhere near finished O and the driver has left the country

[Snow White]

Cambelt changed, new head gasket and finally got it to run on four cylinders. Now if I could just sort out the PAS pump and the leaking rad, I might be onto a winner.

Oh I suppose I should actually get around to placing an entry form in

[thebiggreenthing]

well you sound in the same boat as me,
ive only got a roll cage that is tacked together
my fuel tank is currently a bucket hanging from the steering wheel whilst my new one is made
all 3 winches are in bits
no cooling what so ever
sump is still off the auto box
no oil cooler to the auto box
no interior or dash

on the plus point i sorted the lockers out today and got the wings bolted and welded back on
does that class as progress

Ur a head of us, we only got 1 x wing ,but we do currently have 2 x fuel tanks, one nice custom one we can fill "but cant empty as no fuel pump" , one huge standard one thats attached to bits of rear chassis that we dont want but has a fuelpump in it and some fuel . At least we can steer without spilling our fuel

still got to finish my cage
relocate my rad move my bumber back and rebuild front end

Think there is a reason i'm not trying to compete this year

Oh and before I tow again with the 110 it needs a new rear crossmember.

true have seen a really nice pocket welder

Hey chaps, posted in international forum about headsets but as we'll only be using at LRS so makes more sense to ask here. Those teams that are using headsets, are you bluetoothing or VOX? I'd like to go Vox (cheaper) but want to make sure we don't cross channels with other teams using. Is anyone? Cheers, Sharpie

We're using VOX from now on, crossing channels shouldn't really be an issue as theres....lots.... of channels. I think on the radios we'll be using theres..8 main channels with ~30 channels under each? Quality probably isn't quite as good as bluetooth though...but is approximately a gazillion times cheaper (especially as I found the one's were using in the loft... )

[tyrone]

well just need to sort out new cv and new power steering pump and i am ready to go fixed the transfer box linkage i hope

[MrHT]

having seen bluetooth fail miserably at manby i'm going vox but don't know where to start?

[thebiggreenthing]

well im abit closer
winches are built back up minus the brakes as i need to order bits from gigglepin tomorrow
