Quick note to say that won't be racing as I have got the hump with the whole thing. Will be going still but on track marshalling instead.

Is my van any good to you ? Don't know if would be big enough to get the outfit in. Call me on my moby 07747 137221 to discuss if you think that I can be of any help.

Cheers Peter. Will be in touch. If it measures 56" between the arches we are sorted. It will go in a Transit no problem but not a Vivaro for example. Hope you will come as I feel we will need moral support!

HI Peter, Don't rule it out yet! Will double check tomorrow morning but may well be able to make it fit. When would be best to give you a call tomorrow?
Cheers

What happened on saturday Ian ? I saw you pull in during the first race but by the time I got back to the paddock, you'd already gone.
Did you make it back for the Sunday ?

Hi Peter, Same old problem! Oil being passed out breather. Thought the extra breather would have worked and although it helped it did not cure completely. Had trouble starting the bike when called up then realised the clutch was dragging - quik adjustment sorted it. Have got a 'sump extension' made and am having a larger breather elbow made and am looking to go testing at Mallory before they stop mid November.
Hi Robert, Sorry but as you will read above we still have problems and elected not to race Sunday. Hope you enjoyed the day despite the weather? I spent the day marshalling at the bottom of Paddock (Hailwood Hill).
All the best
Ian
