I did the first one when it was in September, but it's been mid-August since then which is always awkward for me due to girlie's work annual leave/holidays.

I must've missed something with RBMR because despite being a great weekend, I didn't rate the actual rallying at all - flat out cone blindness up and down runways with minimal use of perimeter tracks isn't my idea of a great event. :? But everybody else raves about the event & venue, so perhaps I'm wrong! :!:

Since it's conception, it's changed quite a bit.3 crews from jersey were over last year and said it was really good and for them to say it's good it must be good as we are spoilt over here... :wink:

0.4 miles shared over 3 MOT certificates and it's only done 2 miles since the last one. :oops:

So, replacement belts. :roll:

Silly new flaps. :evil: ...

Off for a skid around Melbourne on Sunday with a 'last chance' view to reigniting the rallying interest.

LOL Chris.

Shame you can't bag your licence to drive for Sunday. :( (Guessing that was what you were asking on BRF?)

If you haven't been before?... Melbourne's a decent mixed surface venue....

Loadsa contention/divided opinion about tyre preferences!
If it's dry, take some tarmac tyres to keep your options open and judge it for yourself. 8)

Here's one I made earlier/last month. :D ....

Good luck Simon, I really hope that the fire is re-lit...................

Also, it's been too damn long since I saw you, I really need to set aside some time, and I will. Soon. Honest.

As per the John Overend thread, the diff has parted company with the rear mounting....

Pretty sure this has been covered more than once, but I just want to double check the sketch.

E30/Z3M medium case 188 diff - twin lug rear cover from and medium case 188 E36 diff will fit for the twin lug conversion? :?:
