I'm entered. My Beetle is a former Endeavour rally car from the 90's.
It shouldn't be too hard to recognise!

Change of calendar - The meeting will be on the 22nd.
I'll be there if I can figure out why the Beetle is running on three cylinders.
On a sad note, Allen Ransome, who has been the scrutineer and also a competitor at these events since long before my time, passed away a few days ago.
I always liked Allen. He was always good for an interesting conversation and a bit of helpful advice. He was also pretty quick in that old Mini of
his.
My condolences to his family and those who knew him.

That is sad. I remember Alan was one of the first people to intdroduce himself at the first event I did there. One of the many nice people at the
club/events that was always willing to lend a hand. I still remember chasing down his mini on day, i was next car after him and my goal was to catch
him before the finish... it wasn't easy!
I have no sympathy for my car, only the wallet that pays for it!

I might come out to the autocross this weekend for a look as Beck might run her Prelude :-)

I plan to go and help out for the day. The L Bug is presently a rolling shell only and I've pulled the engine out of the rally beetle, so I won't
be competing.
Hope to see you there.

Autocross
What day is the autocross on ? Sat or Sun..
Might bring the Datto out for a trot, as my Subie powered buggy is still a fair way from completion.

My new buggy motor is now mounted, all i need to do now is wire all the injection computer in, (wires bloody everywhere) fit up all the high pressure
fuel system, swirl-pot & return line etc, (more bloody stuffing around & more weight) set-up the cam timing (these R1 cam chains stretch in
about 5000ks so we re-set them to where they`re supposed to be) , make up & fit the sump baffle plate... (stop the thing loosing oil pressure on
hard corners & accel),,, make up the new exhaust system, (great here we go again with another pile of spaghetti pipes all over the place) &
then bung all the other crap back on like alloy shielding, front nudge bar, radiator, the new dash etc etc etc,,,, & then we`ll be racing again
sounds easy don`t it ???
