Oil and filter change. Sump plate off and cleaned. The oil was actually pretty clean after the long journey.

I also put a new in line fuel filter on.

The car needs a tune-up but that can wait

Big Tick!
We are doing now our 33rd year in the Midland Hillclimb Championship.
Silly but addictive sport!

My class mate had a big off this afternoon just to sober things up.

He left before me and I got 20 mins baking in the Shelsley Walsh sun on the start line....

A full 3 secs slower than my PB, so NEED TO FOCUS TOMORROW.

I think there are around 12 Porsche's here this weekend.
FAB! :alien:
