AH, could have bought an X6 conversion and upgraded whilst he was at it :D

antnee 30-09-2007 04:55 PM

lol, was someone selling one?

super__dan 30-09-2007 05:01 PM

No but the X6 was the moral victor today after Mcgoo broke our gentlemans agreement and put new(er) tyres on for the final ;)

All in one piece after a day at the CML Raceway. No retightening either.

Bang slap in the mid table. Just where I've been aiming for.

Elliott.

The cheating bugger, I didn't notice that - he managed to keep that quiet...

Today I broke a rear shock tower and mangled a spur gear, not bad considering how high I jumped at Worksop.... oooops.

antnee 30-09-2007 06:08 PM

who was it in the A final for 4wd on the first lap went flying over the jump and broke something on the front(shocktower maybe??), it was a good jump!

Spencer Mulcahy 30-09-2007 06:09 PM

Today the only thing that I have broke is sweat as I have been working.:(

That was Tom Cockerill

MattW 30-09-2007 08:04 PM

Chris, was loving your work with the rear tower!!!!! and btw, i had a spare B4 chassis with me!

For the record - i didn't technically "break" anything (which was a surprise!). Had one way outdrive ring keep coming off - and stripped a ball cup - but that's all fairly normal!

mobile chicane 30-09-2007 08:36 PM

front and rear wishbones both lhs at cml


practice the week I did a chassis 2 wishbones a castor block and 2 rear shock towers

antnee 30-09-2007 09:02 PM

MattW 30-09-2007 09:11 PM
