So who's up for another Keevil day ?
Discussion
Just thought I'd run this one by you
Thought it might be interesting to have another go at Keevil, a wet one preferably this time
Thought I might approach Jay Sheppard regards some tuition as well
This time if it was planned in advance (and the date doesn't change ) might be able to get a full 40 car line up ?

Keevil is in Wiltshire
Driving Keevil in the wet is certainly not suicide. It is an Airfield and so has ample run off and no armco. So it becomes great fun!
There is a plan to also look at a proper circuit like Donington, great idea except the idea was also to get the back out in the wet and learn how to handle your car with it out of shape! This would be unwise at Donington or any other circuit unless you really know your car!
Still, it's good to talk (and cheap!)

Hi Simon,
looks like I will be back on the road next week.
the guys at the factory, dream machines and warrenty holdings have all done us proud and it has not cost me a penny!
Any how, acn you help me witha question.
There are threads on here about the air box having a crack in them and this effecting the air mixture, in fact we discussed this at Keevil when fixing the throttle cable.
I have noticed that my box is cracked and asked dream machines to look at it. The chap there believes it does not make a difference as the there is no air pressure sensor on a Tusc and it therefore can not adjust the air mixture accordingly, even via the ECU.
Any thoughts please Simon.

I did express an interest but have two problems.
1. In Prague until Friday, which I would cancel except 2. I have no Tuscan!!!!! Dom at TVR Power has promised to keep it until the damned 6K rpm misfire is cured once and for all. (It wasn't leads, coil, electronics, catalytic converters, but he is taking it personally and has vowed to fix it even if it means sending it back to Blackpool)
Other threads on the 6k misfire I have heard of is some sort of ignition retarding chips?? (should go nice with the fishy fingers??) and throttle bodies, but this has been an issue since I bought last Dec at Fernhurst and they were unable to find it either. Its done 7 k and had a rebuild since then.
So. Me all done feeling sorry for myself..Sorry...have a good time, and i will be up for a track day later into the wet season
all the best

Ok so the debate has to run around the idea of wether or not you guys feel happy about giving it death on a wet Circuit, OR wether it would be better to head for a wet Airfield with run off!!!
My first thought is that it should be an Airfield - hence Keevil, but this won't be a weekend (it only runs on Monday)
If most of us think it should be a Circuit, lets look out for a suitable one for January onwards
BTW
I'll be at Hullavington on Friday 31st - It will be wet!!!
