Forrestburn Pictures

Well it was an interesting weekends racing at Forrestburn. A rather wet Saturday morning and it sort of dried up later on, then a glorious Sunday until 20 to 2 when the heavens opened for about 10 minutes.

Anyway, two sets of photos - Saturday and Sunday

A few of my favourites:

Cracking pictures as usual. Agree about Sunday sitting on the start line with the wipers on full and not being able to see much was interesting

Did you not take a wee excursion into the green stuff on that run too Arch?

It did clear really quickly though which was good.

I am assuming that the gearbox has all the bolts out and the pin for the clutch fork is already removed. If this is the case, usually the gearbox is jamned on the locating dowels. If there is no movement , and you can't get a pry bar or lever between the engine and bellhousing, then I tend to get a large pin punch and knock the locating pins through a bit to get the a bit of movement between the box and engine.

Hope this helps a bit
