Good luck with the season mate.

I didnt realize you was there Paul otherwise i would have said hi mate, i kind a guess it makes sense now as i saw you hand Ron a sticker?

Warren and the lads couldn't sort the box issues im afraid so didn't make the final,

However.... Dave Jackson on the last lap put in an absolute flier of a lap and took a first place win. top top effort from all the ford lads over the weekend.


Im sure Ron wont mind me posting this as its all about the highs and the lows about the car.

Didn't take too long to get out and strip down now did it!

Now lets get it back together for knock hill

The legend that is Matt Lewis (Web shop link in my sig lol) is sorting Ron out with what is needed so we can put the short block back together in time for the next round in four weeks time and as Chris has said Tony Ryan has also been a Big Big help too xxx

Im by no means an expert bud but maybe it did pick up because of no big wing... ? but there is no real deep marks on the crank just looks like the top surface of the bearing stuck on the lobe, guess we shall no more when the crank gets checked over... fingers crossed

just got me thinking a bit and the other shells didn't seem too bad! and it was No 4 that went, but he dose run a baffle plate.

iv got a gated big wing sump on mine for this very reason, but iv been able to save for a few goodies for a while now lol
