Pete says he'll challenge you to a timed run round the off road course that Brookers is making. Loser buys the bacon rolls.
Is that the sound of a gauntlet I hear?
-
Jules we will see what mat and I can come up with
I'll bring my racer along and I can find a few mates that I'm sure will be happy to volunteer; all it needs is something like the Bowler do at Goodwood...
The Shire's may well be intrested in a stand

Could always have a comp demonstration area for the race boy to play on sorry I mean demonstrate what the comp boys do.

Does anyone know if this show is still happening in Oct
We have emailed Live but had no response

Me and the wife are still thinking about it.......

this may need a few inches cutting out
all you would only need a little bit of water proofing and a few inches out of the chassis as IMHO its a little bit long

There is no point in throwing money at something until your completely happy that’s the right way to go don't just listen to the loudest talker they may not be the best people to listen to loads can talk a competitive truck but few can build or drive them. what engines and drive chains have you use in the events you have competed in up to date what is wrong with them....I don't know what your using currently

A mate of mine is building just for playing with a 440 yank engine with superchargers and NOS but he is more interestingly using the base engine gearbox and running gear from a Cherokee chief which he bought the whole car from a scrappy for a few hundred pounds and its all going into his 100" hybrid.
Its the big chap my wife and I are always chatting to at the club socials
a small note I find I have to spend a while getting used the cars manners when I have changed for a different engine this could also be worth looking into better the devil you know.

I sold my Tomcat to a man from Greece who drove it back there in late 2007.
I don't suppose any one has ever heard of anything to do with it ?

£50 to change anything but my mate has a policy with them which they charge him £100 to change anything.
Don't get me started.
The customer services is also carp even a new level of carp..............they can't get anything right the cover notes were all wrong and slipped in full thatchum immobilisers on the policy which had not been agreed (in the very very small print)
I used them because I wanted to use a car and it had no cover so I rushed and got it covered on a Sat afternoon and have regretted because I will have to pay when I start modifying everything on the truck.

Me and a few mates that meet for a curry every Tuesday and have been for about fifteen years were chatting about a trip up to Brecon as it was 93 the last time we went so we were thinking of a weekend playing. having said that the Lightweight we went in has since long been replaced and he now has RR3 TDV8, I'll be taking the 110

Thanks Tony

Is it the sticky pad your having probelms with ?
No, it looks like the metal bit stays on the screen and the arm and mirror detaches
-
I'm trying to remove my mirror but no joy so far last time I forced a mirror off a screen I ended up with a large chunk of glass in my hand.
-
I agree I go to the show's to catch up with old mates and have a laugh and hopefully get the odd bargain. I can’t be doing with politics’ I get enough of that a work...

Me and the wife are thinking about it, well she is waiting to see if the "who has the biggest flag debate" on the forum dies down.

The Freelander 1.8 Racer we had was very good in water but having said that it was only every put through water at speed. Not so much wading but its was fantastic at sites like Slab common, Driffield and other notoriously wet comp safari tracks the only addition was the ITG carbon fibre induction kit which was placed up against the bulkhead out of the way. The timing cover is a bit carp as the small rubber seals fall out. The dizzy cap can be a bit iffy all I did was (use Gen part) use some non conducting grease around it to stop any ingress of water. I had my CT freelander float once which as it was in a very fast flowing flood on the A26 and the fields either site were lower than the road, was one of those seat munching moments as it was a tipper lorry’s bow wave washed me off the crown of the road I was two thirds of the way through when the truck entered the flood the tit..

I have a floor from Van freelander if you still need one. Come and get it I've tried to sell it with no joy so you can have it. (its brand new never used)
-
May be of interest to Freelander owners - just putting a for sale item on for the Factory Tour - have a look! Is for Halewood so the F2 line and Jag X-type!

I would suspect that's a but on the heavy side.

It’s a great guide but you don't need to remove the diff completely or remove the drive shafts to change the bushes
just jack up the back of the car or reveres it on the ramps (ramps are easier) and simply remove the bushes one at a time taking car not to let it drop out but don't fully tighten them until all three are back in place then fully tighten them up.
It is fiddly but very simple.
Should take about an hour or so depending on how many cuts of tea you get through

I have a 42,ooo mile 110 V8 and the speed reads very slow with 70 in the speedo only doing 60mph acording to the GPS.(it will go up to 90 on the speedo with out too much drama but its reving its nutts off)
I have a BW transfure box in the garage but I think its too high for a 3.5 110 on 265's as I will be using it for towing..
has anyone put a BW on a stock 3.5 with 265's and if so how has it been...
