Those of you who frequent the club will be well aware of Team Shambles, who we are and what we do.
 I thought I would start a thread dedicated to those wonderful repairs that we carry out with a little help from our friends Mr. D. Tape and his colleague Mr Z. tie. I'll start off with two masterpieces..... My recent wing repair and Mr. Dodds Zip tied rear end of his B3. For my wing I used some metal washers and taped them into position to reinforce the already destroyed mounting holes. We shall see how effective this is tonight, Im sure Reg and Pat will test it with a good ass-shunting.  ________ Plymouth Valiant Specifications

This one I am especially proud of. Initially the inspiration came from me, but Mr. Dodd's bodgecraft really shines here to finish the job. Credit where it's due, Dave you are now an offical shambler.
 Dave snapped his hinge pin holder-thing. As he runs a B3 we thought it was game over for the night due to lack of spares, but here at Team shambles "it ain't over till the fat bird sings, or we run out of tape". A couple of strategically placed zip ties around the hinge pin, and then under the loosened transmission held everything in place, well for a few laps it did. But thats a few laps more than it would've got without any zip ties lol. IN hindsight this could've been more effective if we had used some duct tape to secure the zip ties in place, or just simply used more zip ties. We will learn from this and modify this technique for next time...... ________ MICHIGAN DISPENSARIES

Better not let Colin see pictures of your wing, he will be charging you for club tape, especially as he had to go home on sunday morning to pick up some tape for the sunday series as we had used the spares he had left for the saturday.
I think we at team shambles should definatly sign up to this club.

Unbelievable. That car was the epitome of shambles. I hope you signed the buyer up to the team?

Ant, you'll be fine with 2 if you're charging at the club. Otherwise I'd get 4 to be sure that you'll have enough capacity to finish the race (assuming your wheels stay on of course).
And if you are charging at the club, don't do it near me because my pit towel is flammable.
