Not a problem matey, will hopefully improve on the next run out as i will have had some practice with the new camera by then! Cheers
......and maybe a new set of wheels...??
I wish, after our outing i think the Chim deserves to stay! Either that or i could bring the missis' Smart car.....

Don't think you made it onto the tunnel run vid as there was a rather tasty looking Cerbera blocking the camera car at the time and you went past in the outside lane before our car could get into the tunnel.
OOPS..
sorry 
Having checked the footage, it wasn't you 2DOGS as the car was a gun-metal grey / dark silver?
That would be my other half's father then....
Apologies on his behalf!

Looking forward to seeing the new routes - perhaps I could give them a try next week if you don't mind making them available? (and it's not pi$$ing it down!)

I too would be up for a up for a slow recce or faster aquaplane
(NOT) next weekend. I might have to bring my E36 jollopy though
Fancy it ?

How are you getting on with the Chim F1fix? Mine's into the garage tomorrow for a small radiator leak, very very tempted to get the straight through pipes sorted.....

do it, do it, do it!!!
Woofle, woofle, pop, bang, pop....
Edited to add...mine had a very small weep from the rad for a while - used to monitor it closely but it never got worse and temp. was always fine.

Its getting a new one fitted as we speak, probably going to get the pipes done at pro-speed, looking forward to a bit of extra noise to wake the neighbours up in the morning!

PS. Can you remind me where you got yours done, i think you mentioned somewhere in Newport that only cost 50 quid?

It was done at "welsh coast customs" in Newport 01633 841 484, near the transporter bridge. I did call longlife before wcc, and they wanted £100.

Brilliant, what was their solution to increase the volume? I know there are a few different methods...
