Hi you
all
Welcome
back from the Christmas sojourn (if you had one).
I hope
you had a relaxing time without any “unforeseens”.
Mine was
frightfully short and encompassed a lot of driving:
But with
a bit of luck I’ll be in Botswana for a week by the month end.
For those
of you I did not meet up with, sorry.
Just
before Christmas I finally sorted out my Hilux
Gearbox problems. After the car spent 5 years or so at a Gearbox workshop, I
decided to tackle the job myself. I do believe that one should leave certain
jobs to the experts, but when they fail…
After the final tune up
we drove to the farm and back without incident.
Next on
the agenda is moving the Engine back to accommodate a viscous fan and then to
go for EFI.
What is
going to happen at Nick’s Racing within the next few weeks:
Firstly I
am going to have the Dyno’s rollers Flame sprayed so it can handle vehicles
with loads of torque.
Then we
have a few customer projects going including the fitting of multithrottle
bodies to a Superboss 
Also I
have to make up my mind how to deal with all those who had their vehicles
modified outside the country and now wish to enlist my help to sort out their
mess.
Sadly the
government showed a knee-jerk reaction to the Graymarket problem.
Why not
force the dealers to carry spares for the Vehicles they sell ?
I have
updated my Pricing on Services we offer, to
accommodate the different Services we provide and to phase out the old.
