c21vhpd Posted December 2, 2003 Share Posted December 2, 2003 No problems - the 21's a very robust car. I like this guy's idea though... Caterham 21 VHPD aka... the Caterham Nippy Truck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FH Posted December 2, 2003 Share Posted December 2, 2003 Ballast, Just had a look at the "family website" The thing to remember about getting in and out of 21's, is that it's impossible to do it à la Diana with your k-neez together 😳 FH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c21vhpd Posted December 2, 2003 Share Posted December 2, 2003 Miss Harness, It is perfectly possible, as 21s are more robust than 7s - you grab the roll hoop with one hand, the top of the screen with the other, and vault in. Works perfectly with 3 point belts, but with 4 or 6 points, you end up sitting on the straps and have to do some undignified groin thrusting to extricate them, which may actually lead us back to your point 😬 Caterham 21 VHPD aka... the Caterham Nippy Truck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballast Posted December 2, 2003 Author Share Posted December 2, 2003 FH....luckily I'm not a very elegant and therefore getting into the 21 with Zee kneez togezzer was never a option.... 😬...but I do have a couple of delightful bruises on my right calf....i really must perfect my technique 😳...I'll get some instruction from PP... C21 - If I try vaulting...I'm going to break myself So I'll stick to more girlie methods!!!! Boonie....Thank you the website was a bit of me and a bit of template I found on the internet....I thought the general engineering feel was apt for our household.... 😬 It is a first attempt....I've got some experimentation to do to make it flashy and lot and lots more photos to put on!!! PP has got to go and find his 7 pictures - they are 35mm not digi...so they've got to be scanned in...so his bit of the site may take a while longer....but with a digi camera it is instant gratification *tongue* 😬 😬 😬 Edited by - Ballast on 2 Dec 2003 16:41:11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c21vhpd Posted December 2, 2003 Share Posted December 2, 2003 C21 - If I try vaulting...I'm going to break myself You are allowed to open the door first silly 😬 It's not really a full-on vault; more a sort of a gracious plummet into the sumptuous leather. I'll give you a demo sometime Caterham 21 VHPD aka... the Caterham Nippy Truck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballast Posted December 2, 2003 Author Share Posted December 2, 2003 Even with the doors open it would get technical..... I'm not sporty....don't do the running, jumping, being fit thing....I do the driving, eating, sleeping, watching tele thing 😬...oh and occasionally work I suppose ☹️ Bx Caterham 21 1.8K 😬 😬 (R351 BMX...soon to be K8 XTC) 😬 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c21vhpd Posted December 2, 2003 Share Posted December 2, 2003 Erm... We'll have a Caterham 21 Awards day, and anyone that shows prowess in Caterham 21 vaulting skills will win chocolate and or crisps and or other yummy stuff.

Ballast Posted December 2, 2003 Author Share Posted December 2, 2003 Definitely wouldn't win that one.....although do you get separate marks for technical merit and artistic impression Can we have an award for: "Longest Lurk on the 21's List" "Biggest 21 Induced Cheezy Grin 😬" I may stand a fighting chance with those.....

I do have one disadvantage on C21....I don't have the roll hoops....my technique would thus have to be adjusted.....
