Newark market place

Unfortunately I could not make it to the TSSC Robin Hood rally this weekend. But they came to the market place and I meet them and their cars there. Sorry no pictures this time.

Dig out those parts



Meet up with a couple of fairly local Triump folk and their cars at the Cadwell race meeting.

Unfortunately my camera battery was out of power so have borrowed these pictures from the TSSC website.
Agreed to sort out some Herald bits and pieces I have aquired and pass em on to Andrew.

Cadwell Park 2007

The rain held off all day.


Had got so used to the bad weather that had taken rain proof jacket but no sun cream or hat - a typical English summer day!

If there had been a price on this car, which was for sale, I think we would have bought. It won its races and my better half Jan was well smitten.

Most of the races were MG races but the 1st and last races featured Triumphs. The last race was an all comers race with an amazingly wide field which included 3 TVRs, Caterham R400 which won very easilly and three Triumphs. Unfortunately this Vitesse estate failed to finish.



More details of the TSSC race series is available at: tssc triumphracing_news or at: http://www.racing-triumphs.co.uk/

Newark Kit car show 2007

I like shows that let me in for free. Not as good turnout this year probably the rain put people off. The carpark is one of the best bits of this show. A good mixture of old and new. An old Fraser Nash and a group of wild mini.





That orange car has a mid mounted Hayabusa engine!

Did a little shopping got some yellow tape to cover the earth straps. Also found some screw caps to cover the screws that hold the door trims on.
