Our engine is back💪
With thanks to ACR we have a fresh camshaft & new followers, and now we're aiming to get it fitted pretty sharp-ish👀
Auxillaries are back on and the engine mounts have been strengthened. Now we just need to drop it in, connect it all up, and run the engine in carefully...✅️
Then, all being well, in 3 weeks time it'll be ready to race again at our next planned event! More details on that soon🤘

The latest on our engine...
It's out, being repaired, and will hopefully be back with us before our next planned event🤞
Following our unfortunate retirement at the Isle of Man Hill Rally we've removed the engine, inspected it & sent it onwards to our engine builder for repair ✅️
As we thought, it was a camshaft failure, which unfortunately caused the damage to the hydraulic follower❌️
But thankfully it's all replaceable!💪
Whilst our engine gets fixed, we're taking a look at a few other possible upgrades to our Disco AND beginning to prepare for our next event in just 6 weeks time...🤞👀

Unfortunately our rally is over...😩
Despite working up to 22nd overall yesterday, we developed an engine knock during the afternoon loop which we investigated after finishing the day🙄
We stripped the engine late into the night, to discover a cam follower had failed ❌️
It's a component failure we dont want to risk damaging anymore, so unfortunately we had to call it...
On a positive note, we had good pace most the day, and the stages were immense! Gravel forests, full tarmac Manx stages...It was awesome!! Hence why it's even more dissappointing not to be back out there today. But, we will be back💪

DAY 1 DONE - Two clean stages with good pace✅️
After the ceremonial start on Douglas Promenade, SS1/SS2 were 1 mile stages around a MX circuit! 👀
The car performed perfectly, and we found our feet with the maps/timings again to go into the weekend 2nd in Class and 29th out of 44!💪
Now to keep it clean tomorrow...🤘
