Yes. Mike is the guy to speak to. :) He has worked with one of the damper manufacturers and they have produced what I can only describe as dampers of the highest quality! I saw some at this year's national meet near Preston. They are of lightweight alloy construction and the adjustment on them reall...

Well done, Adrian and all involved! That is an outstanding achievement!

IM

Wow! What a brilliant result!

Congratulations to David and the team!

IM

Yes. Lots of folk have given the company excellent feedback.

I kept missing Steve's car! Either it passed me by before I could get a picture or it was obscured by other cars on track. Anyway, it looks like Phil Smith got some really good pictures of Steve's Chamois. I shall email mine to you later this evening. :) Alas, I was too focused on the photography to...

Well done indeed to Steve for the Championship win! :D It was great to see some hard fought racing on Sunday. Here are some of my photos. Grahame - let me know if you would like any at full resolution for Impressions. :wink: 01.jpg 02.JPG 03.JPG 04.JPG 05.JPG 06.JPG 07.JPG 08.JPG 09.JPG IM 8)

Re: Cadwell Wolds Trophy 18/06/17 I agree. Great photos! IM

I agree. Great photos!

IM

That being the case, you might do well to join the Imp Club.

The Club magazine, Impressions, plus getting along to local Area Centre meetings, should help you to find a suitable car to fit in with your plans.

IM

Take a look on the Imp Site, a wonderful resource owned and run by a Dutch lady.

I did not see your name in the roster of rally drivers but some of them may be familiar to you.

Welcome to the forum, by the way!

I hope you find what you are looking for.

IM

Thank you very much, Mike. I found Geoff and Steve in the results.

They were doing well against some tough opposition!

Any idea what went wrong with the transmission? It sounds like oil loss leading to a mechanical failure of some kind.

IM

Cheers, Mike. It may take me a while to make sense of that lot!

IM

Well done, Geoff, Steve and you, Mike!

It sounds as though you came very close to finishing the event. Any idea where the car would have placed, if it had finished?

IM

Here? Malcolm stocks almost everything that is still available for Imps. He's a nice chap and posts all over the world too.

Im really into forums and know all about them, but why is the Rally Forum a sticky one?? Is it sponsored by Sellotape? :D :lol: It's "sticky," meaning that it stays at the top of the Motorsport Forum, irrespective of whether or not anyone has posted in it lately. :wink: Or maybe it is the...

Well done indeed!

Superb result!

And very well done to Brian Hodgson too! 6th is an excellent place to finish.

IM

The best of luck to everyone for tomorrow!

... But I am determined to realise my dream. 8) They say that keeping your hopes and dreams alive is the best way to stay alive. :lol: Happy New Year to you Paul and your loved ones. I certainly agree. :D Best wishes from Mrs. IM and me to you and your loved ones, Lars, my friend! :mrgreen: IM 8)

I still want to sprint and hill climb my Imp some day. :D Two house moves in the next eight months and the imminent loss of a garage mean it will be a couple of years until I have the car ready. But I am determined to realise my dream. 8) Of course, the HSA Imp class may have disappeared by then... ...

Thank you, Martin. That's good to know.

IM

Interesting. Cool.

Keep us posted. And ask away with your questions!

The 650 cc bike looks rather delicious.

IM

Colin, I'd love to tell you that gel batteries are getting better... are the be all and end all... but I've only ever owned two: the one that was in my Chamois when I got it back from Barry Palmer and the one that I managed to ruin after the first one stopped holding charge! It was my own fault. :( ...

Hmmm. I wonder if they supply gel batteries.

Not too shabby, Chris.

I saw you competing, Colin. Your Nymph looked fabulous.

I am guessing you didn't spot Mrs. IM and me in the crowd.

Maybe I should've entered the Vectra...

There must be a better bolt to use, thinking maybe an allen key head instead of a flat drive. A stainless steel countersunk Allen screw would seem sensible to me. I know they are available because I want some and was watching some on eBay for my Chamois doors, although they are a different size, I ...

Likewise. I shall get some pictures of my badges at some point. But I am pleased with my purchases.

IM

^^ Cool! :D To remove the rear seat, first unscrew the seat cushion from the plate that it mounts to. You will then see two countersunk screws either side that secure the hinged seat plate bracket to the rear wheel tubs. You will probably need to soak them for a while using WD40, PlusGas or similar ...

Welcome to the forum!

Join the club! You won't regret it.

So, this Imp of yours...

IM

If anyone is interested in doing this next year then it might be possible to get the imp club invited. It depends on whether I can get the ManiacImp :twisted: running again in good time but this is the kind of activity I had in mind for the car. Well, one of the kinds of activity. :D So perhaps... ...

Great news!

Looking forward to reading the updates.

IM

Fantastic result, Nigel!

Really wonderful to see an Imp place so well. With a team like that behind you and your obvious experience, things look good for next season too.

IM

I'd love to go see this round. I'll have to see nearer the weekend...

IM

Top work, Chris!

IM

^^ What ibbo said! Top stuff, Chris!

YES PLEASE!

If I can get my car running again this year, which I hope to do soon, then I might be able to make one or two rounds. I cannot promise and I will not because I am the master of saying I'll do this or that and then not getting around to it :oops: :oops: but I really do want to do this, so shall try. ...

Alas not a chance, Peter. :( The problem is not so much time now as money. It is a real shame. I am extremely keen to get into motor sport and get the car set up better and this track day would have been a great opportunity to progress that. Hopefully well before next Spring I will be back on the ro...

I must confess that the regulations for motor sport confuse me at the moment. :oops: I need to keep referring back to them when taking desicions on modifications to my Chamois. I think that the regs for historic rallies forbid the removal of the rear radiator, IIRC. Someone on here will be able to q...

Very well done, Chris!
