Autosport NEC

The bracket system is bolted to the rear bulk head and a 4 point harness system is then bolted to bulk head as well. Karl form Verdi is going to send some photos of the system when fitted. I am just going by what I saw on the 512TR. the system looked really good.

 

Thnks. So the seat slots into bracket , then.

 

Tony - do you potential need one too ?

(Group discount from Karl !!)

 

Rich,
no, my kids are 7 1/2 and 3 1/2 ! I came across this problem when eldest[Nick] was born and i had a 964 Speedster, but luckily a standard baby sit fitted fine and there was no passenger airbag to worry about.

Oh to be our kids!!

Hi Stewart,it's just a shame so many garages do such crap jobs,
boy i could name so many main dealers who couldnt service a wheelbarrow let alone a car,makes me want to throw the towel in,
I just laugh and end up throwing so much money at it to put it back in some sort of order,
rant over
Dale.

 

Stewart,

sorry to hear about your car ... makes your blood boil I'm sure. I am slowly comming to the conclusion that there are no proper garages out there. Everyone I speak to has a story to tell, and there are good and bad stories from every one. The bad ones however seem to be inexcusable in most cases. I have had my 308 for 7 years now and overall I count my blessings. I have used 3 garages and I only had very small incoveniances with only one of them. For the 355 however I am resigned to the fact that it will continue to be main dealer serviced. They do get it wrong some times and they may be more pompous but at least there is good comeback from a clients perspective. Having said that I don't really have much choice as I have the extended warantee.

I'll take lost of pics and post them .. may take a while though, as I have the builders in next week and I will be moving out !

Joe,

I'd love to get my hands on a complemntary ticket but I don't see any way I can manage to pick it up. Is there any chance you are aroung central London or the Doclands tomorow ?

UPDATE UPDATE

Philip et al

I have been told I won't be needed all day on Saturday to look at prams, etc. I think I can get a quick few hours in at the NEC. Yippee!!

Any meet ups or times for meeting planned?

 

Izza,

so far its a convoy of one blue 355 at about 8am ! How long do you want to stay there for. I can come by and pick you up or we can go separately if the early start doesn't phase you.

Philip

 

Hi guys,

I'll Be there Friday.

Trying to sort out a datalogger and in-car video stuff.

Also want to check out the new Radical SR4.

As well as the Fezzers of course.

I am taking wife with me - dropping off at in laws and then dashing to NEC. So will be 2 hours behind you and unable to share car. To be honest if it only takes 1-2 hours to go around I think I may be arriving as you leave (can I have your ticket??!!!).

Can anyone give us an idea how long its worth milling around for?

 

Hi Warren good to see you back,talked to quaife today to see if theyd sell me a diff/takeoff unit for the sr4,they said no its radical's diff unit we make it you have to buy it off them,we know why that is,nice the sr4 enjoy the show,
Dale.

 

Dale spent about 5ht 30min with about 1 hour wasted !!! I expect that I too will have had anough after 3 hrs or so. Call me when you're there as our times should overlap. if I can give you the ticket then thats great ! It would be good to get back earlier than 6 as I need to sort my flat out.

Cheers
Philip

 

Cheers Dale.

Still debating whether to get involved in Radical racing this year or not.
Can't make up my mind. Had a chance for a half share in ClubSport for this year but turned it down just because I could't face the wife with another new race car. Chicken.

I will probably just rent for the odd race with a Radical and concentrate
on the Vee series for the full season.

Wazza

 

Warren you are into the racing scene,do you know phil bennet touring car driver good old drinking mate of mine,dont see him much now though due to his racing,he used to come out on his motorbike with us and fall off,good in a car though,
Im going to go to a radical race meet this year to check these out,also have a look at formula vee which you race,be good if i could find them at the same meet pref-donington park or silverstone,
Dale.

 

Hey Kenyon. Id love to see a picture of that when you get it.

 

Stewart,

Tony
