Chance of a shower around 10.00am, but otherwise it should be cloudy/sunny tomorrow at York.
It will be quite busy with it being wet today as a lot of the stuff from today's races in the various championships will need to run tomorrow.

Wasn't a bad day, weather was a bit cack early on, but after 3pm it was lovely and the times came down.
I was consistently doing 14.1 all day, but pulled a 13.9 out the bag later on.
I didn't take any pics, but Walrus was snapping away most of the day, so hopefully he'll have some good ones to post up.
Mick was hanging around mid 14's most of the day. Dan was low 14's and then broke into the 13's with a best of 13.5 @ 100, coont
I can't remember if Alex got into the 14's or not with his M30 moredoor. He had a drama at the end of the day with a broken seal on the expansion tank cap, so hope he gets home alright.

Home at last, cant remember seeing much motorway for looking at the temp guage, Lee's super douper gaffer tape repair to the rad cap worked a treat, got home and not a bit came out.
Deffintly still want an m52 15.6 seconds was my best i think. Its got shit loads of torque but no speed.
I dont think an m30 is for me, i only got a 14.7

I got that with my Hardtop on, full camping gear in the car, and a load of parts inside the car, and it's heavier then yours Alex by a long way, something doesn't sound right with yours. More investigation into it, btw, what Diff you got?leeparkes wrote:Alex wrote:15.6 seconds was my best i think.![]()

It has got a slight missfire between 2000-4000rpm but at full chat it more or less goes away.
have no idea on diff but it was doing over 5000rpm at around an indicated 130mph

There's your answer, not on full power then.
Look at the dizzy and rotor arm, and check the diff.
