[CSW Next Event 18th April 2010 Furley Nr Chard/Axminster]

Hi all, just to remind you that the "Early Bird" discounted entry rate ends at midnight on Friday, so get your entries in to save a tenner! This also enables us to set out the punches/sections according to the level of entrants that we know are coming.

As we're no longer with MSA we have been able to re-introduce day membership, this will cost an additional £10 & covers both the driver & crew!

Also, please can anyone that is coming and can lend a hand with the marshalling let me know?

[TD5 Def with A/C - do you have one?]

Thanks again for your assistance with this guys, I have now checked out as much as I can without removing the A/C duct unit from under the dash. Seems like it's either the blower motor, relay or associated wiring, both of which are hidden behind the duct assembly, so I will need to get the system emptied next week before I can go any further.

[Tubed AT's]

There's no reason that you couldn't put tubes in BFG ATs, as long as they're not "too" low profile - 75/80/85 series should be fine.

[TD5 Def with A/C - do you have one?]

The compressor will not work if it is low on refridgerent pressure, but the blower/fan will.

Andy

Andy, do you know that for a fact/from experience?

[TD5 Def with A/C - do you have one?]

Yes blower works with ignition on but engine not started.

Thanks Jason, fairly sure that it's electrical.

[TD5 Def with A/C - do you have one?]

Thanks for that chaps, yest it is the type that makes your knees cold!

I should have also asked if the blower will work with the ignition on, but without the enginge running - it's a long story, but I cannot currently start the enginge!

[TD5 Def with A/C - do you have one?]

I have a 2002 Defender 90 with air conditioning, but the blower on the cooling pack has ceased to function, though the compressor clutch seems to engage ok. Not sure if its due to a lack of pressure in the system or just an electrical fault! If you have a similar vehicle, please could you confirm whether the compressor needs to be functioning before the blower will work or not?

Thanks!

I have been asked by the landowner to ensure that everbody approaches the coordinates from the lanes, not via the farm/farmyard.

Please oblige!!

Scruitineering will start at 9.00am and close at 9.45.

Driver's briefing will be at 9.45, followed bt the start at 10.00.

To give you a rough idea, the finish is likely to be 4.00 or 4.30, but will not be later than 5.00.

Entries are open here: http://www.challenge-south-west.co.uk/Online_Entry_form/Entry%20form%20page.htm - see you all there!!

[4x4 ADVENTURES INTERCLUB CHALLENGE 22/23 AUG 2009]

Just waiting on the form from my final member & we shall have a CSW team!

[4x4 ADVENTURES INTERCLUB CHALLENGE 22/23 AUG 2009]

We are currently sorted, thanks - as long as the remaing members get their forms and cheques to me shortly! If they fail, I will let you know!

[4x4 ADVENTURES INTERCLUB CHALLENGE 22/23 AUG 2009]

No, 'cause we're we're strugling to make 5!! Mind you, looking at the list of your team's members, I wouldn't mind joining it too!!

[4x4 ADVENTURES INTERCLUB CHALLENGE 22/23 AUG 2009]

As Ciderman has said, we are looking for one or two competitive modified vehicles to join a potential CSW team, we can make 4 vehicles if Derek drives his own vehicle instead of crewing for me - which has been a regular occurance lately!!

If Derek drives his own vehicle, that will leave us both in need of an experienced bitch - any takers?

[CSW 1 day challenge Colyton nr Seaton]

Yes thanks Martin arrived today. I saw Paul Radford today he mentioned he had spoken to you, looks like Webber may be codriving for him!!! Have a good recce!

Yea, Paul's in, also had a couple more so just 2 spaces left!

[CSW 1 day challenge Colyton nr Seaton]

The T shirts will, hopefully, be available at the Borcombe Farm event, but Frank neglected to answer the membership cards question - have asked again! Have you received your card yet James?

[CSW 1 day challenge Colyton nr Seaton]

Paul Radford will be along as well i believe - his entry went in the post yesterday.

Ben - codriver is now sorted thank you.

can we get our T shirts and membership cards on the day if we dont have them yet?

Post, what's post? Haven't heard from Rick that's it's arrived yet - hope it doesn't take too much longer as there are now only 4 confirmed places left!

I received my membership card today so I hope that they will all be out soon, I have asked Frank what the score is & also about the Ts.
