Bored.....

Yup, Mr Jack Knight's finest, very loud but shifts like lightening. It's a very nice car, the standard of preparation would put many a works outfit to shame and its a hoot to drive. We took it to Croft a few weeks back to shake it down after its rebuild and it was more or less perfect straight out of the box. Planning to double enter it later in the year- haven't done any hillclimbing for years and really looking forward to it. Suppose I'll have to let its owner go quicker to save a walk home though!

Nah, not for me, too reliable and too modern. Not sure what to go for next, Westfield XI with a supercharged 998cc seems to be favourite on my list at moment but have been hankering after a 289 Cobra for a few years now. God knows. Got the house to sort out first and the Alfa needs paint, the new motor instaling, axle needs a rebuild with extra plates in the diff, brakes are still poor etc. so will probably next year before anything new arrives.
 Anyway I have to get over to Sweden before the weather turns to find me a SAAB 93b

My Dad had a supercharged frogeye - Sold it when I came along - go for the supercharger Si - I heard from him you wont be able to change gear fast enough to keep up with the engine revs!  (wishful thinking)

How do Dave? Nice of you to pop in. Blown sprite sounds fun- does he have any pics? Did he convert it himself?
 Sounds a handy chap your old fella- will have to meet him one day.

A mate hillclimbs an ex-miglia mini and has a spare full race 1360cc motor with all steel internals that would be fun. I just fancy that supercharger whine though

I had a 1340 Oselli powered cooper way back........

Speeding, clocked, sharpe left hander, little old lady, lamp post, write off, ambulance, arrest and finally court. Oh, forgot to mention 12month ban

0-60 god knows but top speed was about 110mph, it just got there very quickly.

Wish I had time to be bored this week- hectic!
 Still quiet around here isn't it?

I had a day off work today - woo hoo!

Not going in tomorrow either!   

Why does a day off in the week seem so much better than at the weekend ?
