So with our first race of the 2026 season at Donington Park next Sunday we have been busy getting Dolly ready.
The new AP racing concentric clutch slave was fitted to the Gas n Gears built dog box along with new braided lines from HEL and the gearbox refitted and clutch bled.
Inlet manifold and ITBs have been refitted, we had hoped to be able to get our new composite manifold fitted and mapping tweaked, but unfortunately time has not been on our side….so looks like this will have to be done after Donington.
We then turned our attention to the alternator, which stopped charging during the last race meeting of 2025. We had hoped that it may just be a loose wire but unfortunately the regulator is knackered, so the alternator was removed and sent to Brise for repair, luckily we have a spare that has been fitted while the other one is in for repair. We then gave the underside of Dolly a good clean, fitted the freshly serviced extinguisher, fitted a new rain light and did a full spanner check.
Tim and Dolly have unfinished business at Donington as the last three visits have certainly not gone to plan…..
Weather is looking dry, so if you are local and at a loose end why not pop down!
As always a massive shout out to all our sponsors and supporters.
