Hello All. I had a great 1 and a half sessions on track before losing 2nd & most of 3rd gear at Clearways last night. Great fun pushing my standard Midget to the limit & even managed to get past a few of you - he he! I was able to limp back home without 2nd & a bit of crunching in 3rd & 4th. Thanks to DL & the rest of the committe. Now, where is that Ford 5 speed box!!! I'll be back.

Bad luck, I've got a very leaky rear main oil seal to attend to now (on the car not me)

I found this out at Snetterton when 3rd lap into the second session the headgasket went on my ZS. So hope you get the box sorted soon and look forward to seeing you out again.:D Martin.
