More removals today. Got loaded up but then had a stuck needle valve... had to unload to get to the carb.
Bloody mid mounted engines lol

They need to earn their keep

Another fully loaded return trip from Bradford. Only loosing 1.5MPG when fully loaded compared to empty. I make that economical lol

I suspect that your engine barely registers the extra weight!

It doesn't. Still winning the traffic light grand prix even when loaded up

 

[Panky]

Probably with a few extra dents on the inside of the rear doors

Well it's 10 years to the day that I bought the van.
Not much to report over the last few months but I have made and fitted a sticker for the swamp cooler

 

[Panky]

And 9 years 11 months since you blew the first engine

Nice sticker though…not going to make the festival this weekend Paul, sorrry but ended up with a ticket to watch the mighty SWFC play Charlton in London.
Sucker for punishment

 

[PaulJL]

Finally made a logo for the van doors.
Also need to have yellow towing eyes for the beach races. I used the mountings that Tim welded on the chassis for the lifting brackets

 

[Panky]

No trendy bit of dangly webbing then

 

[PaulJL]

Not as cheap as paying for delivery but a hell of a lot faster

 

[Panky]

Madras or tikka masala

 

[PaulJL]

All set for the beach races next week. Just tyre pressures and coolant to check.
Another commer first? Taped up headlights..

 

[PaulJL]

Just fitted a set of LED front side light bulbs and Stop/Tail bulbs. Way better than the old bulbs on the rear. I'm not sure on the fronts as they have lost the "warm" look

 

[S0updragon]

I put led bulbs in but the rear lens’ aren’t very clear so didn’t make a lot of difference. I’m going to have to put some extra rear lights on the back as my friend said that he couldn’t see them through the rain when following me.

 

[Panky]

They are even worse on some coach built vans, so I did this

 

[PaulJL]

75 trouble free miles today. Only used 3/4 tank of fuel....

 

[PaulJL]

All clear for the sand..

 

[Panky]

What kind of racing will you be doing? Measured distance, drag, circuit? A sand drag strip might end in a couple of big holes
