The day started well with being handed a little trophy for 10th place in this year’s 4wd regionals. I think I might concentrate on 4wd at Mendip over the winter, and 2wd at Cardiff. And maybe, that’ll stand me in good stead…
Me in my happy place, on the rostrum 🙂 Andy takes a tumble, I take a very wide line and give up a place to John Howe to stay out of trouble. But by the bottom of the hill, I want that…
A busy day today. Running the meeting as well as competing is always a little tricky. A damp start meant I didn’t have tyres ready for the 1st heat. 10 rather slow laps with no grip at the back. Time to glue…
Bit of an end of an Era today. With a B7 on order with Mr.Finch , this will be the last time I’ll run the B6.4d on Carpet. It’s not going in the bin or being sold. But it is going into…

I’ve been busy with CAD and my new 3d Printer! Over at the shop there’s all sorts of new goodies that can be sent out by post. But I’m more than happy to bring anything you want to a race meeting. I’m…
After the rather testing time at Cardiff, getting back to home turf at Mendip was welcome. Gary had spanner work to do on his Daughter’s Mini, so I volunteered to run the meeting. Running the meeting and two cars is a bit…
I won’t do a full report. Just the highlights. I cleaned up the front kingpins and rear pod damper and put in 20k silicone as opposed the 10k which does seem to be too thin to do anything useful. I also added…
