Re: British V8 2014 Registrations List
If everyone who plans to attend would take a moment to phone and encourage a friend or two, I've no doubt we could double the registrations. Even if you can't make it this year, please take a moment to encourage your friends to participate.

Re: British V8 2014 Registrations List
A lot of people have filled out their registration forms, but not yet sent them in.
If you're not sure whether your wife will join you - mail the form today! - and amend it later. Your registration will encourage others. |

Hey Curtis,
You need to move that Red dot in Washington a little to the left and up closer to Canada ;-p LOL Bill Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 06/24/2014 08:38PM by MG four six eight. |

You can add another dot to Cali - I got Jim Legg's form. I will also be getting 2 more from the great white north, that is after the postal dog sled get's here ;-)

Re: British V8 2014 Registrations List
I see that the map won't let you place the dots except in the middle of the state. I wish I did get to start in Nashville. ;)

Re: British V8 2014 Registrations List
I feel your pain Carl.
I'll be racing to get my car ready... Put it up on stands yesterday to check things out just as a precaution and found one of my CV boots was split and grease had been slung all over. Pulling the axle today - hopefully it's just the boot and I'll be able to get a replacement locally. |

Re: British V8 2014 Registrations List
All mechanical issues appear okay. Last week my CD player broke...now the seven speakers with subwolfer and two power amps have to just play the radio!!

Re: British V8 2014 Registrations List
Jim - at least you have a radio... I was planning to install my sound system this weekend, but got side tracked when I found the CV boot split. Got the axles out yesterday. Lot's of grease still in it so expect the joint will be ok. New boots should be ready for pick-up at my local parts place by the time I get off work. Hope to get them put back together tonight. If so, might still get the stereo installed before I head out.
UPDATE: Took the CV's apart; didn't put them back together because wanted to check to be sure what I was seeing wasn't abnormal (see pics). DriveShaft Shop confirmed normal so will be putting them back together tonight or tomorrow. Note the little dents in each opening... all 6 openings on both axles had these dents so I was pretty sure they weren't wear marks; The DriveShaft Shop confirmed ok... Note the horizontal "scoring" and shiney wear areas... Again, confirmed as normal wear. Horizontal lines are from machining the cage & sihiney area is wear from CV going through it's motion...
