Thanks for all the surportive comments guys, i'm not feeling sorry for myself, I am upset and was seriously pissed off yesterday as I was well within a shot of winning my class.
But i've spent a fortune on this car for it to continue to fail on me over and over again.
I love Hillclimbing it's such a great sport, so I think i'm going to sell the cossie or break it and buy something suited just for Hillclimbing.
I'd like a single seater something like a Jedi or an OMS with a 1100cc engine in.
