Mrs Kipper Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Fireproof long johns and 3-layer nomex should do it 😬 I really, really hope it doesn't rain - anyway not until I have completed by first timed run. I am first out in Class 2 😬 Kipper Fun is not a straight line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mattj Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 According to the Warwickshire forecast in metcheck.com, it expects 0.5mm of rain between midday and 3pm, which is hardly anything over the space of 3 hours. It predicts 1.3mm between 3 and 6pm. Here's hoping for the best For once im glad that i'm 1st in the running order! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robmar Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 as the forecast isn't for a blizzard and -30 degrees C I wouldn't expect anything else I would hate to think what you would wear if it was in the middle of a heatwave and +35 degrees C 😳 rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kipper Jnr Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Gordon - would this secret weapon involve you removing a windscreen 🤔 Next thing you know you will be taking out your passenger seat and stop eating those triple decker fried breakfast sandwiches 😬 Rob, No 3 and hoping for rain Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robmar Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 I believe that you need a seat of some sort for all classes etc class 6 now that bit of foam stuck downwith tape could be construed as a seat potentially rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mattj Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 So I take it pops & I are the only ones left in class 1 with a windscreen?(+clams+buggered springs) Can we not get some sort of handicap or something??? (Bunch of cheaters...) Why are you hoping for rain Rob?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilbo Posted June 18, 2004 Share Posted June 18, 2004 Well I going to sit in the car tomorrow rev to 8300 and sulk Then have a Bacon and Brie Butty so at least I have not missed the best part of the day 😬 Then run round and get some new hose (actually I proberly do some decorating ) Hi Graham well its not serious but you would all hate me if it was not fixed. Its not spilling out but enough to drop the odd couple of pints in a hundred miles. So that is big drips all over the start and the track. Think your right there seems a shortage of real engines at the events Still if BB is in shorts again.... at least I am spared that.... (shudder) 😬 😬 😬 'Can you hear me running' ......... OH YES and its music to my ears 😬 😬 😬 1988 200 bhp, 146 ft lbs, 1700cc Cosworth BD? engineered by Roger King, on Weber's with Brooklands and Clamshell wings, Freestyle Motorsport suspension.
