New project, Alan?

I know you like a challenge

Posted: **Tue Feb 02, 2010 10:50 pm**

Project ........... no , one at a time ........... but we may see each other on 13th March

..... unless I decide to go to Bishopscourt instead ??????. Now,............. nobody has answered the question yet ???

Won't be at Nutts on 13th March, too much two stroke oil on the track for a debut performance, will wait for the open expanses of Kirkistown

Now if anyone should see such a beast (in Gulf racing colours !) over the next while (Friday - between Kent and Birkenhead) ... be sure to give me a wave !!!

Thanks for that .. I managed to pass scrutiny despite noise being far too loud (103 vs 100db and that on a log scale !!!!)
In Q for scrut and phone rings .......... Motoring news man (or whatever they call it now ...... how did that leak out ????)
cheers ... alarm set for 0530 !!

Report ? Pictures?

Picture :

Report : Car was good , but I was very slow - have to learn how to drive it .. great fun , about 6mpg and half a set of tyres in 26 stage miles !!!
Circuit of Ireland next me thinks .. could be a steep learning curve

Is that the same car Richard Tuthill was piloting in Flanders? If so that thing looked a beast. Big V8

Muchos power

Know what you mean about the noise, sounded nice though over in Flanders. You gonna enter the Ulster Rally in August, or make it over to any in Wales this year?

What event did you just do, looks like a single venue tarmac affair..? You tried it on the rough stuff yet, looked like it'd be a load of fun, if a little of a handful (but nothing wrong with that

)

Lookin good

Yes , same car .... only one in world ???? (show me another if you know)
I'll stick to Tarmac (what I know best) - do C of I , then take it from there.
I don't want to get too distracted from building my own SWB 911 - so one step at a time.
On route back from Brazil at time of Ulster - so no to that one.
I need about 100 stage miles in the car to feel anyway comfortable with throwing it about (I guess) ... time will tell.
On majority of Sat stages , I used two gears - 2nd and 3rd ONLY .. but geared for about 190mph presently , so that needs changing +++++
Rally was a single venue race track event ... not my cup of tea , but a good learning ground with new car - no walls / trees etc !
There should be a few words in this wks MN ... I might even have to buy one.
