Haha, yeah cheers Mike.

In all seriousness i dont have the cash to pay someone else, plus i like the satisfaction of being able to say i did it myself. No matter how hard it is.

Your work on Duncs car does look fantastic though, well done to you and the team :D

Methinks I'll be heading over to see you once I'm back in the UK to have a nosey!!
When are you back mate?
Looking like mid April judging by the current snow conditions, if we get a load more, it could be the end of April.

Either way I'll be over to the 'ring ASAP!

Once this car is done it'll be a 7:30 or better round the ring. I'd like to see that from an on-board cam point of view. :D
Buggers cancelled my op just a couple of days before it was due. Inconsiderate barstewards!! :rant:

My Day in Nottingham

Post by duncan »

Having dropped Annabelle off at Triathlon club I headed up to nottingham with a boot loaded of things that I could do today and to see the progress of the car (more important really).

Got the usual great welcome and a cup of coffee thrust into my hands by Mike, who I have to say publicly makes a good brew :thumb: Jase does too but it took him almost all day to find the kettle, something to do with 'Tigers' was stopping him :lol:

Anyway... walking into the workshop and finding my car transformed is a lovely feeling but I could tell something wasnt quite right. The car was up on the ramp and had been running but was not making oil pressure at idle like it should be. .... hmmm Not good. Mike, Jase, Mark and Dan couldnt understand why thy would be as the engine was built as they would normally but this one was not holding pressure.

Much head scratching and debating later narrowed it down to the baffle plate being the only element that was different in this build so up with the engine and sump and baffle removed, MORE new oil, and back together to see whether this could be the culprit. Fired up (once primed) and the oil pressure was immediately bang on target for it. Hmm.

We decided that the baffle tray will stay out of the car until Cosworth can confirm what testing they had done on it and confirm why it would lower oil pressure to 10 psi at idle :o

I do have to say that it purrs beautifully and sounds proper with the characteristic twin plate clutch rattle at idle :lol:

Anyway some pics:

The front now with the FMIC in there:

One thing ticked off the list now is the drivers seat, the adaption of the rails done by Jason (sidewaysfletch) on my measurements worked perfectly:

Passenger harness fitted:

Superb :thumb:

I left the car with them whilst the last few jobs needed finishing, but almost there now. 8)

Looking good Duncan, It's going to be a right beast. Can't wait for a pax lap at the ring. With my accident it looks like mine will be staying standard for a little while longer. :cry:
