George
Yes the usual parking area is on the left on entering the site.
Missed your dynamo posting. A very strange sate of affairs. It is difficult to see how oil entered the dynamo from the bottom and even then it has to go a long way to get to the brushes/commutator where it could cause problems. Are you certain it has not come down from the usual source (VD)? I have just solved such a problem on my PA when I found that the oil was coming down the keyway not passed the lipseal.
Excuse me Mark for the thread drift, back to the subject of this thread. I look forward to seeing you,George, on Saturday even if you are in a modern! We will excuse you, as it is a very original BGT V8. Also I look forward to seeing Dick and any other Triple-M spectators. The competitors deserve some friendly faces to cheer them on. As Mark says above the race at the front of the pack will be very interesting as there are a number of rather fast cars.
Regards, Peter |

Haven't been to a motor race for quite some time until yesterday at Mallory.
What a great race! Everybody looked to be trying hard. The cars sounded superb and the whole thing clearly impressed the commentator. Great to see plenty of new people taking up Triple M racing.
I was particularly impressed with the performances of Fred Boothby and Duncan Potter who both looked quick. Hardman looked smooth. Painter Snr. Put up a hell of a fight and was unlucky not to finish first but the Bellevue Spl. clearly had the superior grunt.
However, Painter Jnr. was stunningly quick and my jaw dropped when he got in front of Charles Jones after the first few laps. Having raced against Charles in the L type I know how quick he is, so to pass him was no mean feat. Having got in front, Painter Jnr gapped Chaz and was several seconds ahead of him at the end of the race. Watching this car/driver combo through Devils Elbow was awesome. I am guessing that there may be a karting background?
Highlights of the day for me were the Edwardian race and display - just fantastic.
Full marks!

What a great day at a very good circuit for our cars.
I attach some photos, Fred Boothby, Duncan Potter, Mike Painter and Harry Painter were all driving really well. In the other non MG race Harry was well up with the really fast cars!
Tom seems to be looking for another gear!
All divers did the Triple-M Register really proud. Well done.
George.

Thanks Mark. My P project has no body. Duncan's looks purposeful and not too complex.
