Hi everyone, looking to book tickets to Silverstone Festival 2025 in the next week or so, I was looking through the clubs list and don't seem to see us on there, is there a plan to have a club stand at this event as it's usually a very good one! If not, does anyone know of a club stand who would be accommodating? Thanks all!

Next Wednesday 26th 6pm onwards, Malt Shovel Pub, Coventry Road, Nr Stonebridge, Coventry, CV7 7HL.

Generally they're trying to kick us out just after 930pm so if you're coming, don't leave it too late. Also, if you want to eat, book beforehand as they don't normally let people just rock up and eat.

Entrance to the pub car park is off the A452 Chester Road heading North 50 yards from the island.

Everyone welcome.

The club have been invited to the Leicestershire area Jaguar meeting on 20th May at Beedles Lakes golf club, Broome Lane, East Goscote LE7 3WQ at 7.00pm. 
It would be good if we can get a good turn out,  weather being kind. 
Who would be interested please post your names. 
Thanks guys. 

Hi All,

I’m considering buying a superspec that’s been laid up for a few years. The current owner has never run the engine having bought it after the previous owner had started to apparently remove the engine wiring loom ready for an engine change to a turbo version.  The current owner has had a new loom made and has attempted to start the engine but hasn’t had it fire.  He’s also stripped the interior out, removed the windscreen to put in a carbon fibre dash and aero screens.

Having already got a 2b+ that I built myself 20 yrs ago I thought a project kit car for my 15yr old son would be a good way to get for him to gain knowledge of cars and look good on his cv.

Just after a reality check…. Am i mad?  

September I a looking at organising a trip to Circuit des Remparts in Angouleme. The event is weekend 19th to 21st September. Looking at doing 17th to 23rd. Accommodation includeding continental breakfast and evening meal would be £80 per night. Limited space available of 4 rooms. Additionally Accommodation may be available but not guaranteed. Please register intrest ASAP so tickets for circuit entry can be booked.

This is a brilliant show with loads of cars, music, side stalls, acts in the arena etc.

For a number of reasons we haven't had many members attend last year & 2023 but hopefully we'll get a good turn out this year.

Anyone who is interested in going can you please stick a note on this post, we can then see if there is enough interest to justify asking them for a club plot.

Thanks,  Steve

Hi just had Webber carbs 32/36 fitted , I have purchased 2 synchrometers and when I check them can’t get them to balance … I have adjusted idle screw and mixture screw but I think i might be missing something…is there another screw to balance carbs ??? Thanks 

Anyone Recognise what this kit is other than one that appears to have had it's identity removed, this is a total guess & not an accusation but from the looks of it it's been used, so either on the donor plates, or the plates are now on another vehicle.

Weather not very conducive to going out recently, but next Tueday (25th) looks like it will be OK.   So we will have a run out to Elton Garden Centre (PE8 6SH).    Anyone else like to join us ?  Please let me know by Monday lunchtime as we will be booking a table (12:00)

I have seen a 2B advertised  but it has a "J" registration. What are the practical difficulties  caused by this?

Will it have to go through the SVA system?

Will it be registered  as recently put on the road  so subjected to emission tests on the MOT?

How will insurance companies treat it?

Any other problems?

Any comments gratefully received. Thanks. Mick.
