Just returned home from a wet Castle Combe.
Met up with Ken,Paul and Geraint and had a wander round in the rain. Public attendance was well down on years previous because of the forecast rain but there was still plenty to see.
We walked from almost Tower corner to Quarry But didn't see Mel and John...where were you guys parked? By then around 2.45pm we were wet and cold so the decision was taken to 'go to the pub'.
So after a good 10 minutes of bailing the water out of my car and demisting the screen we were off.
My demister has never been great and is next on the list for an upgrade. The pipe may even be off....
I am going to make a cover for the engine when at shows and rain is about. Maybe some sort of vinyl material? Just to lay over the top as when the rear of the parked car is slightly higher the water pours straight in the louvres. When the front is higher it runs straight off to the rear bonnet.
Also, the car cover/top caps, mentioned on the club funds thread would be a welcome addition when parked overnight and rain is about. I must have the prize for the worst leaking Stratos in the club
Thanks to Ken and family for the very enjoyable overnight stop.
Geraint, Sorry we didn't find you to say goodbye.
