A wheel came off Milltek's trailer at about 60 mph. I saw the result - Studs sheared right off!  :scared:

Was it made from the same material as the exhausts?  :laugh:

Play nicely now Ian!.................. :grin:

Just watch out for the crumbs next time, I gave Pie's a whole Victoria sponge cake before he left Combe and I understand it was nearly all gone before he hit the M4  :grin: :grin:

I have been around a few times when the Pie dog starts to get hungry!  F**k my tall hat!  Shared a room with him in Spa too.

Next Snotterton for me.

....Linked to the pic you posted of the "track day transport" - Is there a problem with that?

Yep it's got nothing to do with my thread about my car. Millteks trailer issue occurred towing an exhibition trailer not a car trailer  :stupid:

....I'll happily post one for you if you like, bud. But I did answer SteveP's comment which you chose to omit from the quote.

All you're doing is extending the irrelevance but I guess that's already been done with all the chat about stuffing faces with food.

You have a strange internet personality don't you RR?

....Okay, then I apologise if I was misinformed or got it wrong. However, you could be a bit more gracious than posting " :stupid: " icons, particularly as you singled me out and weren't bothered by other off-topic posts on your build thread. You have a very fine car and I wish you joy with it.

You'll doubtless be pleased to hear that I won't bother to post anything more on your build thread whatsoever and I'll greatly reduce my posting on this forum generally.  :smiley:

Does the engine need running in again with the head work.  :happy2:
