Watts Racing Home

Two guys that have helped me in the past and enjoy there sport, still wondering if Pete went first the night Gary Davis finished my car off last season :) (see earlier blog entry) He kept me out of trouble most of it by pushing me off other cars or pushing other cars off me..... Never got around to saying thanks since then although I've seen him a couple of times, he's super busy these days as you all know.

So incase I missed it Thanks! Pete I had fun last season even though I'm missing this one because of the end of it. Hoping to do it again next season in my own car.
(I do have a licence though...just in case LOL)

My new Ramps

Spent 6 hours today making and welding my new ramps for my trailer to replace the thin heavy ones that get my fingers all the time and the car falls off of now and again. They'll be mounted on the back so I won't have to lift them anymore and it won't matter where the wheel are or what vehicle I put on they won't fall off going up them.

My new 13p parked up behind elmo's house in Roto-vegas after we picked it up

20mm shaft on 3.2 mm pipe

The ramps from hell LOL

Mounted for when there isn't a load

Turned around and down..2 metres long

Top Gear: Car Shooting

Jeremy Clarkson strikes again! He's as about as practical as a 6 yr old school girl but I'm impressed with his idea's :)

Update on my stockcar housing and workshop / hideyhole

My shed

Yesterday I had a few mates round and got the garage up and off my back lawn. Only really took 1 hour or so to get walls up then it was doing all the fiddly stuff like truebolting the frame to the concrete, putting the door on and the roof. Today was spent fixing a water pipe from house to tank the guys broke while digging the trench for the wiring, and finishing digging the trench to a required 650mm, am getting 6mm wiring putting in with 32 amp fuse so I can run a single phase welder in there with ease and not burn the place down or pop fuses every 2 minutes.

Still have to put windows back in and put flashing back on with down pipes and guttering then it'll be cleaning up the drainage around it etc, still gots lots to do.
