The transportation job could be good for Alex to keep his costs down and convince him to commit to coming??

Jersey Phil won't be coming now, so that could be yet another room at the Berghotel free (unless he was bunking with Trumpcards, of course!)

Tested the video system now. All seems fine, though the camera is a little low as a consequence of the car design. I shall have to have words with Honda about that

I may try to get hold of a camera that I can mount quickly inside the car for a different perspective.

Does anyone have two spare Anti-foulers that I could beg, borrow or steal. I have a pair fitted (two cats) but when I use the car in anger in the lower gears, the CEL comes up, so I need to double them up. I have ordered some more but doubt they will arrive before I need them.

Also does anyone want an exhaust manifold gasket for an S2000. It came to light while clearing up the other day. It has covered 7 miles on a brand new car and removed when I had Mugen stuff installed. Free with free delivery to the ring.

gasket.. yes please

for the anti-fouler.. I was going to ask you the same.. any spare?

at the moment I don't have CEL..

but wanted a back up (versus taking the cat) incase of the ring driving causing an issue.. since I can't really simulate that level of punishment upfront... and I have heard it takes a few tanks of fuel for problems to show up.

Scared now - car is still at the garage.

Problem with the speedo.

Clutch seems to be good though

Should get it back this week.

Fingers toes and everything crossed!

I think you are constructing the perfect excuse for the gendarmes..

"really sorry, I had absolutely no idea a TVR could actually go that fast....with this dodgy speedo and everything... they just don't build them like they use to"

Richard, I will bring the gasket for you. There is room in the boot along with my cats and toolkit by the looks of it.

I may just revert to putting them back on for the trip as I haven't managed to get the wiring diagrams necessary to fit the Unichip anyway.

no, I'm just a technical dunderhead who couldn't get the size of the picture in my sig the same as last year.

Feel free to nick it and re-size it, so I can nick it back from you!
