Hope you all have a safe and fun drive down to the wedge fest on Friday. Colin

Thanks Colin. Forecast is looking superb for the weekend. Cheers

Not too superb hopefully, the blower doesn't like it! 400SX was down on power last heatwave...

Happy driving everyone.

Best thing about driving in hot weather … is eventually my many stone chips are lost amongst the dead flies . I think the pool may be busy...hmmmm … do Wedges float ?

Have a good trip.

Enjoy the fest.

We did Alan, we did.

On the way back my engine developed a rattling sound around 1500 rpm.

It wasn't tappets though as on idle the clacking went away.

On closer inspection looks like probably a trumpet has worked loose - the rattling is under the plenum - looks like the heat did for it, even the high-temperature Loktite gave up. (Unless it's one that I hadn't had to stick back in).

Phew - as they say - what a scorcher.

Glad you all had a good time.

Saturday was too hot for me..
