All ready we can begin handing them out on the Thursday at Borgaro Lovely job Rosso, thank you. I put down my silent first name of Charles on the form for the Italian Club - didn't want to get in trouble using my second name. Is their any way mine could be changed to Simon please? No worries if this is not possible. Many thanks Simon No problem Simon I'll reprint it

Just changed a cv boot today, a bit fiddly as I don’t have the kit for the hub nut and then appropriate torque wrench.
The circlip is somewhat fiddly but the joint came apart quite easy. I’ve fitted a cv boot kit bought from Alternative autos, so hopefully this lasts a while, as it seems good quality
A quick call to Joe for some advice on rear handbrake set up, so I’ll finish that job tomorrow if it’s not raining
Finally experimented with a product call Berryman B12, to see if I can degum the oil control rings. Anyway it’s a take the plugs out, get the pistons at an even height across all cylinders and pour the chemical in.
Anyway left it in for 4 or so hours and then siphoned it out of the cylinders, dropped the engine oil and filter
Refilled with fresh oil and apart from a bit of smoke at start up, all appears normal.
A Quick Look down the cylinders with my eBay bore scope and the pistons are shiny
My thoughts are linked to oil consumption when on track. Normal driving( even spirited) the car doesn’t use a drop but on a track day I can burn up to a litre of oil.
So I’ve given it a go to see if it does anything, good or bad as I’m back at the ring in early July
Cheers Jamie

Today I spent a wonderful morning washing, claying and waxing my coupe.
I was so 'in the zone' that I ended up detailing the gas and elec meter boxes.
There's no hope. On the contrary, that is behaviour one would expect from a Regional Rep

One of the fun things about living in Houston is that there is a LOT of money here.
My friend bought his client's vehicle over to show me last night. This is what happens when you throw several $100,000 at a Land Rover Defender 130.
