Hi all
Just done my first car trial in the seicento near Bridgenorth with Wolverhampton and South Staffs car club.
Had a good morning on the first 16 hills in the morning, it was a bit damp so the Nankangs we're struggling for grip.
After lunch I nearly cleared the first hill scoring only 2 penalty points but I stuffed the front spoiler into an earth bank and the tiny self tapping screw which secures the stone guard mesh at the front went straight through the radiator so I had to retire. Talk about bad design, the sharp point of the screw is only an inch from the front face of the rad!
I've done a temporary repair with a bit of crimping and some superglue but if anyone's got one I need a rad. It got me 50 miles home at least.
I'm also after a couple of steel wheels for the front if anybody got any, even better with a nice pair of Mentor remoulds on
I'm in Tamworth and don't mind driving 30 miles or so to pick up - please PM me if you've got anything
