Do you have a plan to make sure everything will be ready and is TH and co still working on it?

Hopefully 5 weeks will be enough time hope to see D2S at Cowes.

Are you mad? Do you know how long a tow back from Torquay can take?


............. Although this does presuppose that it gets past the needles in the first place

That's better, now let's get this thread back on track with some serious piss taking.

I've known Pash long enough to know that he responds well as the underdog or as Chaos would say "comes in best from behind"

Frayed knot mate, bloody family commitments coupled with the fact that I've been that busy that I haven't got round to the planned seals renewal on the Revenger (Read planned too late).

This time next year Rodney!

Ok me Ol shipmate, we will just have to get ourselves thrown out of another one of "those Bars" in the near future - to have a catch up you understand

Started the Plumbing yesterday - the cost of "P Clips and Jubilee Clips" is daylight robbery front Big Tanks connected to the fuel pumps and onto the fuel filters ditto one middle and one rear tank (cant do the other middle and rear tank until the engine mounting brackets are fixed)

Fitted the Nasa GPS Repeater and that looks good.. Fitted the GPS Speedo receiver thingie.
Just need the fuel pumps finally wired into the switches (Hopefully Monday), the Sea Strainers plumbed in (Hopefully Monday)

Not much left to do really and cant do anything else until the engines are finally fitted (Monday) - not holding my breath so lets say Wednesday! Then Pirtex do the Hydraulic bit and bobs..

Mark (AKA BUDWEISER) is having his first nervous breakdown - he can change a complete grea box on my rally car in under 20 mins so why does it take 3 months to fit two engines

[motorvator]

Is it coz there aren't enough pictures in PB1

Sorry Mark, No offence intended, the opportunity was there and I just couldn't resist

Oil Coolers repaired Wessex Radiators did the job and far cheaper than getting new coolers Thanks Kerry for the tip

[motorvator]

Would now be a good time to mention that it may be worth upgrading the oil coolers if you're going racing.

And yes b*stard is my middle name
