Kenny.S Posted October 8, 2005 Posted October 8, 2005 Cracking wee run today, cheers to Gumball for organising it and letting me use him as pace car on some of the twisty bits Not long started and Gumball's at it already! First stop in Arrachor Correct me if i'm wrong on this one guys but pretty sure this was just after we came through Glen Lean "twisty bits" back onto the main road. Then finally the last stop on the way home at the bottom of the Rest and be thankful Kenny
fai17 Posted October 8, 2005 Posted October 8, 2005 Nice one kenny. I'm having probs with photobucket the now but working on it
des_curran Posted October 8, 2005 Posted October 8, 2005 Nice pictures m8 I would like to have went but i was working this morning and i dont think my brakes would have taken it after the cooking they got on thursday nights run anyway
Kenny.S Posted October 8, 2005 Author Posted October 8, 2005 Think there were a few "brake" issuse today, self included. The front discs seem to distort slightly when they get too hot but then sort them selves out once they've cooled down. My mate Tom in the silcer classic had an impressive amount of smoke belching from his front brakes after Glen Lean Kenny
Gumball Posted October 8, 2005 Posted October 8, 2005 hope everyone had a good time. nice and steady this morning which was good, and wet though. isnt it about time that shell opened some west highland stations though???
Kenny.S Posted October 8, 2005 Author Posted October 8, 2005 Defo mate i would have had my car mapped to run on Optimax but the closest one to me is about 20 miles, so i had to settle for Esso Super. Do you recon if we all sent Shell an e-mail every week asking for it we would get anywhere? Most likely get asked politely to go away! Kenny
st3ph3n Posted October 8, 2005 Posted October 8, 2005 What we need is a big helicopter loaded with Optimax that can get anywhere in Scotland at a moments notice. Then just convert the cars to refuel on the move, and we're quids in. Good pictures. I'll make the next one.
Gumball Posted October 8, 2005 Posted October 8, 2005 << I'll make the next one. >> i'll hold you to that. good turnout today which was good. 5 out of 60 is always good.
Gumball Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 wheres peters pics? you shopped them yet to get rid of the VRN's?
jamie_wood Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 That white RA looks the part Whos is it?? Not DRB is it??
jamie_wood Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 Doh...it must be Kenny!! Just had a closer look at the piccys
Kenny.S Posted October 9, 2005 Author Posted October 9, 2005 Cheers mate Hard work keeping an all white car clean though! The front window got cracked on the run yesterday and it looks like there could be a wee delay in getting a replacement because i asked if i could have the correct thinner glass re-fitted. The glass people seemed quite understanding about it and are looking into getting one sourced through a dealer, so it might have to get sent over from Japan if nobody's got one over here. If it's going to take a while i might just take the chance to put it away for the winter as its immaculate underneath and i'd like to keep it that way. Time to bring out the winter hack! Hopefully still be able to bring it out for the November Photo shoot though. Kenny
dougster Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 Stunning car Kenny. Remember people it's Mr Moderators birthday soon and guess what's at the top of my list!! (cue Gummybear)
jamie_wood Posted October 9, 2005 Posted October 9, 2005 << Remember people it's Mr Moderators birthday soon and guess what's at the top of my list!! >> ermmmm....is it some kind of hair replenishing gel??
Kenny.S Posted October 10, 2005 Author Posted October 10, 2005 Looks like im going to have to wait 6 or 7 weeks for my window They asked the dealer (s&s i think) about the thinner one, who then contacted intenational motors, sure you know the procedure and it seems all the windows for this age of car have been superseeded by one number so it looks like the thin one is no longer available. Appears nobody has the standard bronze tinted window in stock either so there's one being put on a boat and should be on it's way soon. My old cavy feels like a 1.1 fiesta compared to the scoob but on the flip side when i take it out again it'll be like a new toy all over again Kenny
