wow well it has been ages since i have been on here! an update is due i hadn't really done much with the car until very recently as i have been on the bikes on road and off road! but the car has seen some hard action recently.
firstly the car had a new color scheme to advertise the adapter plates. it was a very nice job done by ellevens. i basically took the car there and said to Al do what you want budd. Chuck some ellevens stickers in there too if you like. i was well happy with the job he done too
i was then invited to take part in a drift demo at castle combes pure ford show i think it was last year so here are the pictures of how i got on
you have to make a few mistakes to learn
some ruined tyres along the way too
i then had to fit a new tank as the old one was leaking. the quality from grp4 fabrications is awesome too!
i was then invited to another drift demo at the autumn action day i think it was at combe and this is where the learning curve got steep.
another spin into the grass
a spin on the start finish straight too
a spin on tower corner seen me smash the rear quater in then, totally my fault i lost control and just hit the brakes and boom in i went
the damage was heavy but we managed to get it looking quite straight in the end. that was the last thing i done in 2017 and i have been on the bikes ever since. i done my road licence and bought another CR500 2 stroke monster but this time a supermoto which is awesome fun so the car fell by the way side.

Thereshe is the new beast.
She’s done 1250miles so i ripped her doen
Did you get that CR from John S?
Well after 7 years with KEJ. WE HAVE NOW PARTED WAYS! I sold her back to the old owner who had her as a shell 10 years ago 10years ago! He plans to do a bit of road rallying in her. Back in the lanes where she once came from. I was a bit gutted but i haven’t used her over the last 2 years properly. I have a new ‘classic’ to play with now so i am in the middle of getting that on the road.
I painted her all back up ready for the sale too. She was looking half decent.
Not sure. I bought the bike from essex
The new beast is a clio v6 ph1 that has been off the road 8 years. If the world stops going to shit it would be have been done by the weekend.
Miss this car, she was a peach mate !!!!
