The Triumph Dolomite Club - Discussion Forum

I start a new shift pattern in the new year and think I will be able to make it, so I may see you guys there.

Darren.

Nice one Darren with or without Triumph ?

It will be without I am afraid, development work still going on, arch kits, grp bonnets and bootlids, brake caliper brackets, rear disk conversion etc etc etc.

bloody light weight, sort it out and get it done, you have two weeks .

Oi, dont upset me, this forum gets my back up at the best of times.
Justyn there is so much to do on the car, plus in the midst of potentially sorting some super quality GRP panels and arches which will benefit everybody in the club providing they dont have short arms. Its all time and money.

Only joking mate, i know how much you have been doing to the car, it will be worth it in the end.

I'm willing you on Darren. I am still waiting for our little "comparison test".

I am about to do quite a bit of work on mine too - mainly on cooling, and rear suspension - just stuff learned from the track day shake down experience.

Never mind, I went out for a nice drive in it Christmas morning. There really is no better way to blow the cobwebs away!

You are making me jealous, would love to hop in mine and blow the cobwebs out, however am trying to source some budget calibra turbo goodies at the mo, the turbo variant c20let are making some respectable power, time and money, time and money, am sure you know what I mean.

Just a reminder this event is still going ahead,
Just in time for an improvement in the weather, if your in the area pop in !

yeh, the sun is out, the TC is clean, the tank is full, A272 here we come.


okay, slight lie there, no sun, the car is dirty and i only have 1/2 a tank full but what the hell, we are going no tools, no AA card and the TCs first long trip out.

100 miles, 2 dolomites and a MG, oh and a MG metro if you count that. two other members turned up without dollys.
Top marks to chris for arranging the meet but im guessing the next one will be more local.

Was sorry I couldn't attend, it is the firts one I have missed, mind you I did say that from the outset. Its not actually that far from me, well 40 minutes. How was the pub, I recalled it from a few years ago, reasonable food but a bit grubby inside?

I am sorry too, just too snowed under with stuff to do, will try to make the next one, maybe with car.

Darren.
