Right then, what spares would be worth carrying?

[Shug]

I knew I did not need to 'nag' you Mac ,.. my comment was aimed at John; get the entry in, then get the last few bits sorted on the car. If you get the entry in, then it will give you deadline for getting the car ready!

Ah - so why did you quote me then eh? eh?

Mac

Talk about missing the point....

Read it again with Dom's intention in mind, all will become clear.

(tip, Dom expected you to say "already in, have been entered for ages")

[mac]

I got it after Dom's first explenation - just being awkard

[Shug]

You?

Awkward?

Surely not?

I've been know to have my moments like any man

[Victor Meldrew]

Fully expect to have my new lid waiting for me when I get home. Only a major fcuk up on the money side will prevent me from getting me and the car ready to compete this year.

Or my total inability to organise a dump after a packet of prunes.

Everything is going to plan. So far.

Now then, when is the closing date for that last hillclimb/spint event again?

Looks like a set of Tillet seats are on the agenda now....




Some muppet left the roof off and it rained... Lesley says the seats in the car are ruined.... best get some new ones then....



Nothing wrong with the seats that a set of cusions wouldnt fix

[Victor Meldrew]

Right then... with my Laguna problems the tillet seats will have to be on hold...

Had an Email back from Malcolm at MSAR and it will be plan B...

Fit grommets to current seats (compatible with grommets)
Fit harness...

stop mucking about and get on with it...

Apologies if you've already seen these but there's a fella in SELOC and PH classifieds selling a full set of brand new (still in packaging) tillet B5's for £900 (£300 off apparently). Seats are at Phoenix right now and can be collected. Was tempted myself... Don't know if you've seen the thread on SELOC about the fitment issues of harnesses? Jenny at MSAR reckons that not changing the seats is the worst possible thing you can do - argues that Schroth don't recommend fitting harnesses to seats without integral headrests as they will not hold you in the event of an accident. I'm guessing that was why you were looking for new seats... I'm maybe being cynical but can't help thinking that cutting holes in a standard fit seat is possbily not the best solution either? That said, I would consider it if it saves a grand - let us know how you get on with the grommets...

MSAR... been in touch with Malcolm about harnesses etc over the last few months and the seat grommets will work on my 135 style seats.
