Last I've seen Wavey was going to try removing one of the front wheels! It should weight more than the sump guard, so it's going to do the job! Just don't stay on the outside of the corners, you may end up with a flying wheel knocking you over :-)

Those wheel nuts looked a bit strange, I guess that was your problem. I know that Travis had a few tyres for sale a while ago, you may want to give him a call. He should be in Collie this weekend, so I'll ask him if they are still in his shed.

Have you guys tried sealing up the car and filling it with helium? Or hydrogen maybe. Hydrogen is cheaper to purchase, but more expensive from a lifestyle POV.

Travis sold those wheels too.

Alex.

Aww! *blushes*

Hehe, thanks for the compliment.

I wouldn't want to take anything away from our little Hyundais though - they are quite light. If you can't afford more power, subtracting some Hyundai is always a good thing.

As the late Colin Chapman once said - 'just add lightness'. :)

In low speed stuff, front wheel drive cars are very competitive - light enough to get through soft stuff, but most of the weight is over the front end giving decent traction. Since the back is so unweighted, they can get twitchy at higher speeds, but in a Khanacross it's not an issue, you want it to change direction as quickly as possible.

Hehe, I'm getting goosebumps just thinking about a few corners at Beverley - can't wait for next weekend!

Well, after working on the sump guard last night, it looks like we have a choice of headlights, bumper, sumpguard, pick 2 out of 3! The 3 of them don't seem to fit at the same time, so a fair bit of bumper trimming is in order.
Oh and the rear sumpguard mount still needs a bit of attention, as I don't think the 4 zip ties are going to last a full event!
Funny stuff,
Wavey.

Curly, I reckon that you tried the helium thing last weekend, but you got the gas bottle wrong and ended up with laughing gas! That's why you were laughing all the way!
