Hi.  Just a general question.  Is there a way to search the message board if needing to seek advice on a specific query? 

Motorsport under yet another threat

To all concerned motorsport enthusiasts.

 

Motorsport is again under threat.  Karting, racing, rallying, autotest, sprinting, even trialling could be frustrated by those new villagers who moved from the city and didn’t see the 20ft square signs for the circuit, or in the case of trialling, were not aware that the surrounding area is used by eccentric individuals who climb hills in the dark and the rain, have breakfast and go home!

 

The time has come to defend your sport.

 

Thanks to Motorsport News for pointing out this threat out and a possible solution.  See the link below.

 

http://petitions.number10.gov.uk/livewithit/

 

 

We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to introduce a green paper proposing ways, that, where complaints have been instigated by resident(s) against a long standing activity (for example, church bells, sports facility, local airfield and similar), and where residence has been taken up since the start of that activity (providing there has been no significant increase in activity), a presumption should be made to protect the continuation of that activity and reject such complaint.

Deadline to sign up by: 17 September 2008

Bristol MC&LCC

Since re-patriating my HRG from the USA some three weeks ago, I have been delving into its history. The latest gem is that it was the first car entered in the first car race (event 2 , 1 being for motorcycles) to be run by the Bristol club at their new Castle Combe circuit in July 1950. The driver is still going strong at 80 years of age and is digging out some photos for me.
I gather from the Castle Combe archivist that there is a BMC & LCC video "Bristol Motor Sport" that shows a brief glimpse or two of HLO 163 ...... so..... calling Pete Hart ...... Any idea if I can get hold of a copy ?

Trial cancellations

I gather that the Exe Valley wont be running this year which is a great shame, does anyone know if the Hardy is also under threat (as is sometimes the case) and if so is there anything we can do to help keep it going?
 
Cheers,
Keith

More historic trials videos

Some fascinating old trials clips here including ...current Clee Hills Section Meadowley in use in 1950...showing they weren't bothered by a bit of mud back in the day...or indeed a bit of snow...great stuff...

supercharger

Oooh, I've just thought of another question.
Just pondering on an idea - does anyone know  which type of supercharger would fit a 1987 Volvo 2.3Litre naturally aspirated engine and where to get one?
I'm a little lacking in power and thinking that a supercharger may be a relatively easy solution - assuming the clutch would take it.
Thanks
Julien

Number of passengers question

Hello,
Could somebody please clarify how many passengers are permitted in a 4 door 4 seat saloon on a trial?
Is it possible to fill the car up between sections and offload people for the hills?
Thank you
Julien
