Had a great weekend, nice to see some cars in the flesh and doing good runs on the Saturday/Sunday. Condolences to the chaps having issues on the Sunday, seemed a bit quiet this year aswell?

Thanks to Markgtt for his hospitality at the weekend and for his bacon sarnie and cuppa Sunday morning :)

I was a tad confused as to how a car in the same class as mine ran a mid 14, surely to god it couldn't have been in the right class? Not that im bothered by it or anything, just has me confused :S


Thats because he was quicker than you Carl :)

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

Great weekend, nice to see the guys that made it this year - but as nice as spectating was, fingers crossed i will get to play in my car at some point this year. Bring on the next event.

That's good thinking Robert. Seems very strange to have two gearsets go, within a similar amount of runs.

I got the second set from MED hoping it would be a different batch. My straight cut drops came from them in a Minispares box.

No superglue used :)

make sure you pass the gearsets back to the suppliers,

If you do send them back to the suppilers don't tell them the power your running or else they will laugh at you and say what you expect!

Could you have a bent layshft or main shaft or some thing like that? so it's putting extra stress on things?

Best 1/4 mile 13.2 seconds @116 mph

i think id take a copy of our last rr shootout ,and say

''er ,well ,heres another 3 cars with up to 50 bhp more than me , on the same sort of gears ,and they have not broken!! eh!! eh!!!!'' wave finger in face (optional)

Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM

That is my only concern about sending them back. Hoping they won't use turbo power as a excuse!

This box had a full gear set a different 1st/2nd selector hub, all bearings are new, new lay shaft and a good casing all built to te Haynes same as I have built all my boxes in the past!

Very frustrating, ah well it will be back hopefully stronger and faster but not this year!

Don't tell em, just send em back.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

I'm with John on that one, there's obviously a manufacturing problem.
