First round of the Track Day Trophy and Track day Championship ticked off down at Snetterton. A few hiccups on the way down turned a 4 hour drive into 9 hour drive but that's the M6 for you 🤣

Well done to Wayne for getting the hammer down in both the categories bearing in mind she's well underpowered for the class. The Championship race they managed 10th overall and 4th in class being pipped on the last few laps losing 3rd but the Trophy class 4th overall and first in class by a good 30+ second margin shows the little Celica can hold her own against the competition.

Looking forward to the season ahead working with and everyone involved. Roll on Silverstone next 🤙

The flying baguette lives, breathes and doesn't half go well now. After nearly a year away with near enough a full overhaul with everything from the engine to the interior she's back out on the stages and it didn't disappoint.

Round one of the Protyre Tarmac Championship kicked us off at the East Riding Stages over in Beverley. A few settling in issues on the first couple of stages on the Saturday evening but Pete and Nigel bounced back and started moving up the leaderboard.

Saturday was a difficult one with weather conditions not being the best so the safer option of tyres went on her and slow but surely heading the right way saw the team finish the event with 61st overall and 4th in the 1600 class.

Absolutely over the moon for Pete and Nigel after the long stint out the car and a massive thank you to everyone who's had a hand in not only getting the car running right but back out on the stages. Rob at Clubman Motorsport, SWR, Northampton Motorsport for the mapping and giving me a hand down in the shed 👍 Roll on the Manx now and we're going to be busy for this one

The Capri was back and not too happy this time. Almost self combusting itself going up the motorway she needed a little TLC. Some very horrible noises coming from the back I thought the diff bearings had gone and after hearing what these are like setting up thankfully the owner purchased a replacement back axle.

Now I know why people loved these cars. She's an absolute treat to work on with everything coming off you wouldn't think she's 40 years old this year.

Back on the move and even set the spots up for some lanes bashing around Lancashire 🤣 massive thank you to Callum for letting me use the lift for the evening. As fun as it would have been to do it on the floor the weather had other ideas.

The lead up to Christmas we've had this very very nice Fiesta ST in and not to be confused with a standard St150 version it's the MR200 😮 how the fiesta should have come out the factory.

Replacement rear main seal, lightweight flywheel, clutch assembly, gearbox mount and clutch line. A few issues on instillation but she's back on the road and now back over with the owner in Guernsey 💪

We've also got the engine back in the EG so updates from that coming soon.

Road cars, race cars, rally cars and everything in between for tlc down at KWMS.
New shed coming soon as soon as we've got the keys and more work coming up for you soon.

Lagging behind on the posts so bare with me. Unfortunately Grizedale stages didn't go to plan with the Proton grinding to a halt on the road section to the first time control but don't worry the yellow peril is all fixed with the issues and is getting swapped back to tarmac spec for the Roxy stages in-between Christmas and New Year.

Onto this gem going back to when cars had character and this MK3 Capri. Unfortunately the clutch completely polished itself but a quick swap over and de-glaze of the flywheel, this stunning yoke is ready for the roads of Lancashire once again. Looking forward to breathing so spicy upgrades to this coming up 😍😍

RAC 2025 done and dusted. I would say I've recovered but I'd be kidding myself 🫩

Getting down to South Wales on Wednesday we didn't start out the best with the car deciding it didn't want to start before the event but a few tweaks and she sprung into life. Starting mid pack in the 1600 class we went in with no expectations at all with Mark and jump in navigator Phil.

After the grueling 5 days starting in South Wales, moving to North Wales and then up North to Carlisle and Scotland we weren't paying too much attention to the stage times just managing the car and keeping out of trouble.

We don't quite know how but by the end of the event Mark and Phil managed an unbelievably impressive 39th overall, 3rd in Category 2 and first in H2 by 9 minutes and 33 seconds which definitely can't be complained at which could well be Mark's best finish on the event.

Massive thank you to team Tugwell asking me to come down and run the car at the event. Dale on the steering wheel of the chase car and the man, the myth, the legend, Phil Sandham on the notes. Also big thanks to everyone with car 152. The Avenger was on song all event

Back in the workshop now to rebuild the Micra after it's altercation at Oulton and then for Grizedale so hopefully see a few of you there 🤙

Safe to say a few hours had gone into the mighty Micra over the last 2 weeks to get her ready for the Neil Howard stages but it wasn't to be unfortunately. A brush with the armco on stage 2 and then the final hairpin of the stage the clutch pedal went to the floor and didn't come back. Nursed back to the tent from the finish like and despite the best efforts unfortunately the release bearing has either come away from the release fork or punched it away through the pressure plate.

Commiserations to Mark and Graham for their efforts but we'll bring her back stronger and faster for next season.

Also massive thank you to the organisers with Bolton-le-moors motor club putting on another cracking event and also for helping on the spanners and abuse keeping the day a little lighter and good to catch up with a lot of people we've not seen in a while.

Updates to come on the resurrection of the Micra, 2 Honda's and the Pug
