You will see that I have changed the Discussion Area to what Multiply call "Blog". This is because this area allows you to use extra features, including the possibility to attach files, easily insert pictures and links etc. Frankly I should have set it this way from the beginning but we learn.....
All the old stuff is still on the site and I plan to add a search feature so you can easily find old stuff. You can probably add a comment to an existing thread in the old area but you won't be able to start a new one.
Sorry for the change but yopu will find it better. I promise :-)

Practical Classics on the Bovey Down Trial
The article that resulted from two Practical Classics journos entering two unsuitable vehicles on this year's Bovey Down trial has been published. Not overly exciting but they clearly enjoyed it and we have some free and fairly benign publicity as a result. Michael how do I attach PDFs or could I just email them over to you to work your technical magic?

Excessive exhaust noise
It ain't just the ACTC council worried about exhaust noise in Devon & Cornwall.

Interesting to see they are talking both about outright volume and tone of exhaust noise....hopefully they'll be concentrating on the kevved-up Corsas in Plymouth rather than on trials entrants but you never know...

MCC Testing Trial 12 July
The MCC put on a great event helped by the weather. Saturdays down poor dampened the ground and Sundays, sunshine with the odd shower made the going interesting. Its not my place to announce results but the same regulars made the quickest times. One has to admire just how fast an Imp and an MG Maestro can be piloted upon wet grass. The long lunch break with an on site burger bar gave all the chance to eat and socialise. I entered an MGB and with enthusiastic driving and soft springs managed to wrap the numberplate over both the top and bottom of the front bumper, like a stick on. It goes without saying that the boys and girls upon the bikes were even quicker than the cars. Our Celia still with a strapped wrist and the larger than life Yoshi, took home trophies. If you did not go there is always next year, if you can wait that long for a good day out.

Anyone want an Imp
I have an Imp, had a wild idea about using it for class O. Its a spares or repair needs to much welding for me, rear arches and rear floor. Its a late model imp alternator and heated rear screen very posh! paintwork tatty poor black respray over gold original. Engine runs and it drives .No brakes. It has been in dry storage for about 8 years then on my drive for the last 4 months. Fibreglass bonnet.
Anyone interested before it goes on Ebay.

I know where there's some Rocking Horse Sh*t - 5 Hillman Minx Wheels 15 inch diameter, 4.25 inch PCD that will fit an English Axle
The guy has offered them to me for £150. I think he will take less or split.
They are in Southampton.
Don't need them myself. Anyone interested?
