Next stop Mamhead!

It has been a very long 20 months since the last outing in the Pulsar 931, but the drought is over and we are returning to competition at the picturesque Mamhead Hillclimb, near Exeter, Devon on this Saturday.

The Torbay Motor Club organised event will also be attended by Ian in the Beastie who is continuing his assault on the hills of the south of England by taking part on Saturday and Sunday's events. Both drivers are hoping for clear weather and good times (on the clock and smiles on faces!).

Mobile signal permitting we will tweet updates and times live from the event. Follow us at http://www.twitter.com/rupturedduck to catch the updates.

The Wee Beastie South of England Tour 2010 (plus support)

The winter program is coming along, but slower than I’d like, thanks in part to my daughter getting married last month……..women!! 

Nigel, the newly aquired Son-in-Law, is a good bloke and we get on very well. He’s a liking for old Ferrari’s, Porsche’s & MK 1 Escort’s. Welcome to the family son! 

Anyway. back to business. Car in bits, and will probably be like that until 48hrs before my first event. The radiator damage turned out not be the top hose, but the radiator’s mounting stud cracking the end of the rad (from an early VW Polo). So £40 later, a new rad ready to fit, with a new, lighter, fan also being sourced to replace the wind turbine that has resided in my engine bay since I got the car. 

Bodywork being repaired, and a new front being designed, so good-bye to the Hesketh centre section. 

Oil change (engine & ‘box), nut & bolt check, and we’ll be ready to face the Hillclimb tracks in the South of England once again. 

Dates for your diary are:- 

* 24th & 25th April - Wiscombe Park 
* 1st & 2nd May - Werrington 
* 15th & 16th May - Wiscombe Park 
* 29th & 30th May - Mamhead 
* 19th & 20th June - Gurston Down

* 31st July & 1st August - Mamhead 
* 14th & 15th August - Pestalozzi (subject to event conformation) 
* 4th & 5th September - Wiscombe Park 


See you on a hill in 2010!
