I left the arb on. It never occured to me that I should alter it. And no, Iv not joined JPSC - is it worth doing?

Hope all goes well at Goodwood for you, our event there has been cancelled :( so I wont get the chance this year.
Well , in theory it should allow you to go quicker in very wet conditions -- more roll = more predictable=more warning of a limit :roll:
Having said that , I forgot to disconnect mine at Eelmoor :oops: BUT it was so bad that my intention was to go carefully :lol:

Well Iv just got the official results for Castle Combe.

To recap I was up against some Westfields running totally light weight (no interior, no screen) & slicks. :? And they all beat me :roll: However as I am running in the BARC SBD championship I am running in the road going kit car class, up against more Westfields & Lotus Elise. They were scattered in different classes at the circuit. :?

Anyway :) :D :o I beat the class record by .5 second 8)

Liz on her 2nd event has improved no end. At Pembrey she was 22% behind me to only a 13% difference at Castle Combe.

Hey :!: this is what I like to here ---- brilliant :D congratulations to both of you , particularly beating that class record Kev' 8) Presumably you were competing in ROAD GOING KITS over 1700cc :?: so you could come across 5lt beasties too like I have in the past in that class .
I reckon you could have beaten the FURY 2lt zetec in the road going class at Goodwood :roll: --- shame we couldn't be at the same event to waive the STYLUS flag :mrgreen:

Come on ' Matt ' , get those tyres on the Stylus and give us a hand to show what these little cars can do :P

What would be really good is if we could contest 3 classes in Stylus's at the same event . LIBRE , ROAD over 1700cc , ROAD up to 1700cc
So who's got an engine to suit the up to 1700cc :?: :roll:

NO :shock: surely not :o --- come on , stop enjoying yourself doing whatever and get it sorted :) otherwise I could be unable to drive mine by the time your on track :cry: I have to have a full medical every year now to keep my licence :roll:

It would have been done sooner, if i wasnt being made redundant at the beggining of sept this year and going back to college and uni full time! So the finacial side of things isnt too good at the mo in trying to get it all done in a hurry!

Nev Powell is still having it soon, seats have arrived now and are being fitted this week!

I would love to come on the 8th, but i have my daughter over from Ireland for 2 weeks at that time, so she has a higher priority im afraid!
