Don't know. I sent most of them yesterday mid-day, and have sent a couple emails since with revisions. That's of course assuming all of them get put up! Soon though, I am told. Cheers! 😬 Laurence 'LOZ' Wilson Edited by - Peardrop on 12 Sep 2002 19:07:03

I have sent Barry 18 smilies. angry/shaking head (animated) moon/arse (animated) big smile/teethy (still) confused (still) cool/sunglasses (still) spinning cucumber (animated) dubious/curious (animated) eek (animated) embarrased (still) exclamation mark (still) laugh (animated) question mark (still) razz/tounge out (animated) sad (still) seven logo (still) smile (still) wink (animated) yawn (animated) I even managed to shrink a picture of Arnies head to 15x10 pixels, but thought it to scary for younger children. If there are any others you'd like (within 15x15 pixels) then I'll see what I can do. Cheers! 😬 Laurence 'LOZ' Wilson

I jest not! I want a Mr Cucumber icon! If racesimcentral.com can have a banana then blatchat should have a cucumber!e Cheers! 😬 Laurence 'LOZ' Wilson

It wasn't so long ago that there was a link to an image on the forums. IIRC it also had front wheel arches that wrapped around the circumference of the wheels so as to reduce turbulent air. Cheers! 😬 Laurence 'LOZ' Wilson

I'm sure PECO do a nice one ! Cheers! 😬id=orange> Laurence 'LOZ' Wilson id=purple>

Mark, from what I can gather on the forums here early SLR (5 spoke) split rims had a problem with tyre deflation. This is (don't sting me if I'm wrong) down to the lack of bolts holding the wheels together. Was it KN who manufactured the wheels and then Image who had to remedy the problem through welding the rims together? You can no longer purchase the wheels in whole or part (should you buckle one, etc.) and Image have destroyed their tooling for welding the wheels anyway. Most people go the route of the R500 wheels manufactured by M.B. as they have a suitable number of bolts holding the lot together, and are able to be more easily disassembled as they have not been welded. The reason I brought this up is I did find that some people are more aesthetically pleased by the SLR 5 spoke style than the R500 option. You'll want to run a search of the forums for 'split rims' and have a look through what you find. Perhaps someone could just say whether I got that right or not? Fred, I don't own a Seven so I don't know! I'm looking into it for next year so was considering what options I should go for when I came across these wheels.

The multimeter should register a signal, just not a steady one. You need an osciloscope ideally, although the likelyhood of you having one of those lying about the garage... Just remember to stick the multimeter's 'probes' down the back of any plugs and not into the actualy contact surfaces. You don't want to loosen the contacts and have to replace them! To be honest I have no practical knowlege of the K series, but I will ask if it has a sensor on the injectors telling the ecu if your injectors have opened as they should? This could provide clues as to whether the injectors have opened, perhaps if you can't read a pulse into the injectors.

Armourfend have a diagram of the panels they supply precut for the seven here. Cheers! teeth.gifid=orange> Laurence 'LOZ' Wilson id=purple>

Trawling through old posts I noticed that there is a percentage of people who prefer the old style five spoke wheels that were fitted to the SLR. While their faults have been well documented and their lack of availability now is well known, I have by chance come across a similar alternative that those interested may or may not be aware of. Compomotive do a variation on the 5 spoke split rim theme and from the image on the web page it seems that with the greater number of bolts holding the whole lot together the problem of sudden tyre deflation is much reduced, if existent at all. They do do a nice 3 piece Mini-light style wheel also (which I prefer), although images of that are not yet on the product pages of the site. If anyone's interested I could mail them a flyer. Just a thought smile.gif! I bet you'll all disagree with me now tongue.gif! If anyone does consider either of the above, please say as there may be another bulk buy opportunity (and I'm tight, but also lazy).

Peter, I wonder if you could email me a pic? I'm not even looking for a car until this time next year but I'm browsing the market to get a feel for prices etc., sorry if I'm being cheeky! BTW, I take it the car is a live axle? How much would you be selling the car for without the trailer?

Arnie, either you're confusing me, or you're already confused :o@ The dayglo red/orange that used to be in use for the Marlboro logo on the cars is not McLaren orange. Also this colour is not used at press releases. The McLaren orange that is used at press releases is still the same colour as was seen on the McLaren CanAm cars, albeit in a metallic form. The colour is also known as Papya Orange, at least that's what it was called before the McLaren orange name stuck. It is purely tradition that the colour is used for press releases as it has been used since McLaren cars were raced in the CanAm. It is for this reason that the colour was also used on the celebratory '95 McLaren F1 LM after the LeMans win. During the press release all sponsor logos are black. As well as that, any background colours are dismissed, i.e. the silver, black and red patterning of the West scheme is not there. The car is entirely orange with just black West script on the side, and two black slashes behind the word. After the press release the cars resume the original paint scheme dictated by the sponsor. Referring to McLaren Orange as Dayglo orange is incorrect, as the image at http://www.mclarencars.com/content/sections/media/gallery/gall4big.jpg will testify ;op TTYL Cheers! :o) Laurence Wilson Edited by - Peardrop on 31 Jul 2001 20:59:28
