Well, due to upcoming work commitments abroad I have now sold the Westfield and the 911!

I will be back.....

Been busy in work so only been out in the Westie a few times, however the last time I went out the LCD display in the VDO speedo did not show up.  Did some research online and it seems a common fault with them due to condensation in the colder months.  So took the speedo out and put it in the airing cupboard:

 Left it overnight and gave it a trial run, all good and saving me some money!  So leaving it a few more days to let it fully dry out.

Need to look at getting a new air filter as taking the bonnet off and on a lot has caught it and caused it to tear a little:

 Also, finally got round to adjusting the handbrake on the 911.

Got the rear tyres for the Porsche fitted (Ouch).

Also decided to get a removable and smaller steering wheel for the Westfield, so fitted that too:

Porsche 996 went in for an MOT and needs 2 rear tyres soon! Bugger!!!

Been out in the Westfield a few times and been flawless....

Got round to sorting out the alternator wiring today, here is where the wire had burnt through:

So, removed the bodge I had put in place and then put a new eye connector in place, as well as use heat shrink to tidy it up, then put some heat proof sleeving around it before putting the heat shield back in place.  Car starts up fine always now!

Some Track Day footage from 4 Jun 12:

Was only the second time round the track. after bodging the alternator wiring so not the best lines in the world....and that M3 CSL is bloody quick!!

GOODWOOD track day 4 Jun 12.

Finally got round to getting the Wetsie on track and had a good day, although GOODWOOD is a very fast track so some of the real big power stuff (Audi RS6 / M3 CSL) went past me on the straights easily as the Westie tops out about 120mph and it was my first time on the track.

Second session did not go so well however as the car decided to cut out in the pits, a quick battery booster pack and it was off on the session, however the power all then went and I had to be towed off the track!  Once back in the paddocks had a good look and saw the main wire from the alternator to the battery had become brittle and snapped due to the heat of the manifold.  A quick repair and it was off on another session which was so much better! The car went better than before and had a great time!  Oh the shift light was very good....

So, have ordered some heat shielding for the wires and will re-do that once the parts arrive.

Here is  a pic that someone took of the car in the paddocks:
