If you're thinking of ordering a fuel cell or fire suppression system, the StoxSafe website has been updated. www.stoxsafe.co.uk

Following a year of intensive testing, StoxSafe by SPA supplied fire suppression systems are the only ones approved for use in F1 Stock Cars. The PK 750 powder system, designed for fuel compartment deployment, is £330 + VAT The Big Brisca AFFF (aqueous film forming foam) system has multi nozzle applications (up to 4) and can cover any combination of engine, driver and fuel tank protection. The price is £680 + VAT Both systems come with thermally activated automatic/manual deployment units, so if you are unfortunate to be sat unconscious in a burning car, these will trigger automatically. Whilst they have been developed with F1 stock cars as the target market there is no reason why other formulae couldn't use them. On the prevention side, we also offer fully approved fuel cells for F1s in both laydown and upright styles. PM me for more details

Wow! Just WOW!

I read somewhere that Joey Sloof has major engine problems?

Ooh, it's like A1NOS and J4LMP all over again! Lol

If you can alienate Beaks, who is so often the calming voice of reason, then you truly are a master in the art of biting the hand that feeds you.

My 2012 Sprinter is up for sale. Could make a decent towing van if you fit a tow bar. 10 months MOT £5500 + VAT pm me if interested and I will send full details and photos

To avoid any confusion with hydrogen fuel cells, which are something totally different, I'm now calling my product Safety Fuel System. For further details call/text 07778 269954 or e-mail les_redford@hotmail.com

Fuel cell update. Fuel cell customers now include Will Hunter, Henry Hunter, Jordan Falding, Peter Falding, Paul Hines, Dan Johnson, Nigel Green, Daniel van Spijker, Ben Riley, Steve Reedman, Russell Cooper, Michael Scriven, James Bailey and Lee Fairhurst (Team GB NZ car and 2017 customer car.) Between them they have scored over 4,500 points in the 2016 season. Well done to all and thanks for the support. During the 2016 season, the average time from order to delivery was less than a week, which I will try to replicate during the 2017 season. If you are thinking of fitting a fuel cell to your new or refurbed car during the winter, please let me know as early as possible so I can order sufficient casings, bladders foam and fittings in good time. Due to a hike in the cost of raw materials I have had to increase the cost of the fuel cells. Both upright and laydown are now £725 + VAT. I am also now able to offer the following options For modification to -10 pick up and fittings add £85 + VAT For modification to NZ spec (Includes fuel return fitting - for use with electric pumps) add £75 + VAT Powder coated finish available POA Whilst they have been designed for use in F1 stock cars, there is no reason why they could not be used in V8 Hotstox or any other formula whose regulations they comply with regarding capacity and construction. Please feel free to message me for any further info. Thanks Les

Wrong thread

A contraflow system should help the tourist traffic a bit. Somebody suggested the problem might ease in August, personally I don't think that will be the case. IMO the disgruntled ex(?) Myferrylink staff will, in order to draw even more attention to their plight, take the opportunity to cause the maximum disruption at the most inconvenient time and that is during the school holidays. Also, the port of Calais has literally been ringfenced with double layer steel fencing, topped with razor wire, making it very difficult for the would be migrants to enter. The Eurotunnel operation has not yet been similarly protected. The UK government has however, said it will implement a safe area for trucks in the area by November. IMO the migrants see the next few months as possibly their last chance, hence the increase in recent attempts. It wouldn't surprise me if the strikers were actually in collusion with the migrants in order to cause the maximum disruption.

The great thing about the tunnel is the flexibility, if you turn up early (up to 2 hours) they will often get you away on an earlier train, and should you miss your booked train (again by up to 2 hours) they will get you away on the next available service. On that basis, if you can, I would allow plenty of time for any diversions and, if you do get there early, you might get an earlier train. (Just as an aside, on my way back this morning, there was 9 miles of artics queuing on the M20 for Dover which, at an average of 120 artics per mile equates to well over 1000 vehicles. That doesn't include the trucks queuing for the tunnel.)

Yes. The toll barriers that used to be there have now all been removed and it's all done by ANPR.
