I look such a knob in that picture
I dont remember you complaining when you were drying your socks and shoes on my BBQ of thursday night
they are indeed but i can send you them just incase mate i have a couple more,
and who is sleepy on the zone? one of the pics kedge you look asleep just sitting their chilling out as yuor pride and joy got ragged, blame it on tiv (tiff?) that the fuel pump broke.
Trust be mate i weren't chilling, spent hours in the car with Tiv driving but boy was it different with him driving my car, i may try blaming the oil pump on him lol. Going to inspect it tomorrow i think, could just be as simple as a blockage though since no warning light came on. Either way i think it's time to strip it and start again with some extras
Damnit - can't see those pics from work! Will upload some of mine later...
Got Dan's to download when I get home too - anyone else want to send me some? I'll get Jon's videos & send a DVD of the lot to whoever wants...
Got my car washed at last! Didn't use enough laquer on the front skirt though & it's got a few stonechips so I'll have to take that off & respray it - ah well. Not been underneath to clean all the cr@p off there yet either
E30 in need of wiring loom smoke since April '11...
Thats the plan Ian, not sure about the turbo though, how do-able is that with ITBs? See what you mean, can the main beams do look lighter, think thats because Hella just used cross hairs rather than painting the back of the light like they do on the dips.
I'll get the pics/vids we've got Ziggy sent to you, pm me your address if i can't compress them enough to e-mail them.
Yea i'll have a word with him, think he said he was going back France today.
Dropped the sump earlier to have a shocking find,
Doesn't look like oil pump failure now, more like one of my chain guides have broken up as the plastic is very brittle. So new chain and tensioners and hope for the best i think. Then look for another engine to prepare.
Here are some videos. Forgive the first one for the first couple of minutes. Shaky as hell due to my misses not really understanding how to use a camera I am so suprised I didn't crash whilst in the convoy: 1)Driving on the wrong side 2)Driving close to a shit load of other cars going quite fast 3) Trying to direct the film coverage 4)Trying to get following cars to do a fly by for filming.
Convoy Vid:
A bit of Justice in the world and a nice 360 from an aston martin:
The e28 one will be up tomorrow. Save the best till last
What a classic thread! Alas i am back from france and have done miles that would make you le mans boys weep!
Kedge that does indeed look like a guide rail! Great pictures by all; ziggy who else has sent you there collection of photos? Name and shame the non senders we need them on a dvd, and jon get that bloody e28 vid up now!
Dude I still haven't unpacked, well the shit is out of the car and just dumped in my room. 'rents are going beserk. I'll try and dig it out for you and send it back to you. PM me the right details and i'll send it back.
Was the 1920 additional to Le mans or including? Can't have been additional surely.
Video is funny, looking back at it, he is saying something to us as he knows we are taping it, probably something along the lines of:
