Free to deserving home. Arai open-face lid; I'll get the size tomorrow. Suit is around 5'10" and slim.

By pure chance - by way of elderly 2-stroke motorcycles - I might've happened upon a pile of 1100 BMW stuff. Couple of engines and some bits'n'bobs, I think. Emdy need anything?

Anyone missing one from the 24hr? I've found one in my stuff that isn't mine.

I'm also missing a nice pair of green-handled needle-nosed pliers; I think they were German, but I can't remember the make.

With thanks to Neil...

Anyone need some extra estate-ness?

...a chap called Dave Hopwood? Skunk nose on the bonnet / tail on the boot of a black'n'white car. Before my time I think; someone in the VMCC knows him.

...or, rather, what's left of one. It last turned a wheel in the 24hr race at Mondello in 1998 and managed 60-odd laps and being unclassified at the end. We bought it from the widow of its owner (Alex Marr), who also said that a chap called Wood was the money behind the team. 1998 was my first 24hr and I hadn't got the knack of picking up information sheets from race control, so I have no idea who the drivers were apart from Alex Marr.

He brought it home after the race and parked it where it's still sitting.

Anyone know anything about it/them?

Is there still such a thing as a club exhaust? If so, from where may they be purchased?

The scary tree has been truncated!

My brother-in-law and I are off Austin-ing again. A bit more serious than the last one; we're doing the Classic Monte Carlo Rally this time. Should be entertaining.

I think that my racer is now surplus to requirements. I've never really won anything with it, but it's provided a lot of fun along the way. Various spares and bits and bobs included.

Does anyone have a couple of spares?

There's an Ingliston revival on later in the year; there's mention of track reinstatement, too. Wonder if it'll actually happen?

It's not as far north as Knockhill!

Neil McDonald got in touch to see if I knew who the Pink Ladies or the stripey car were driven by. I don't know and the photographer (who I know) doesn't have access to his programmes. Any ideas, anyone?

...very much for helping us over the line!

....by sending him your 24hr race reports!

D.

I didn't know that he was competing.

Have just realised that I haven't replaced my harness yet (out of date). Do we have a specific contact at Sabelt in order to receive discount?

Just checking, before I go shopping, that the club hasn't/isn't going to buy these in bulk from the supplier?

And, like the jerrycans, is it one jug per car and one nozzle per car?

I'm contemplating assembling one of these, but can't find a regulation that allows you to brace the back part in order to stop the rear ends of the wings flopping around independently. What am I missing?

I got an email the other day informing me of this; it's no. 76 (or was it 72?), silver Dyane. Has a spare proto engine with it. If anyone's interested I can send them details.
