It's been a while since I uploaded any videos (my YouTube channel shows the last one was in 2019) so let's try and keep on top of it this year. Had a great day at Goodwood even if I was the only one in my class. Here's my 3rd timed run:
My crew hasn't received an email :-( The BRMC Covid declaration form that we had to complete in addition to the MSUK one has this text on it: Suggests that if crew have not returned a Covid declaration, they will not be allowed on-site!
Great news - thanks Graham. @Pete - I've just booked in here: https://www.chestnutscampsite.co.uk/ but note they don't have any facilities open and there is no electric hookup. It's basically one big field. I think Chris and Matt Bramall have stayed there before. When I booked I asked and they can still fit a few more in. We stayed at the Norwich Camping and Caravanning club site last time we went but they lock the gates at night and don't open them until 07:00 which meant we were a bit rushed getting set-up in the paddock.
Has anyone had a Covid declaration emailed to them or the other people they declared as attending? I completed the Team attendee declaration and it says: I haven't had an email nor has Gill
Are we supposed to have paid yet? The email confirmation I received said "Don't pay until we tell you to" and I haven't had another email to say "Please pay" but some competitors are shown as already paid! I'm confused
When you take the engine out, label all the wires that you disconnect - you can guarantee you'll forget where some of them went!!! Also take photos as you go especially of cable and hose routes.
I used to lose K-series engine mount bolts with alarming regularity plus alternator mounts and I went though 3 block mounted coils before changing to a remote coil pack. It's just the stresses and vibrations. Loctite helps and regular checks. I recently lost the nut from the nearside upper wishbone balljoint :-o
My wiring loom is somewhat bespoke so I don't' know the colour of the connections but I took a feed from the coil. As I have a wasted spark set-up I had to program the dash accordingly.
Come to think of it I used a step drill as well (in my defence it was a long time ago ). I also had to cut a hole for a Stack dash so used a dremel with a cutting wheel.
Yes you can - drill a hole with the biggest drill bit you have and then enlarge with a Dremel. Mask with several layers of masking tape first - it's easy to slip if you aren't careful! Finish with a round or curved file. I'm sure there are other ways but that worked for me and I started with a blank dash :-)
I just use the software that comes with the GoPro. It allows you to overlay speedo, g-force and track map. Just remember to switch the GPS on first - it isn't always on by default! I bought the Hero 7 Black when it came out - I guess the 8 has some new features.
