The Megapin has now gone to a new home. Time to get back on with finishing the DSP, finally got some big movement and overcoming a big issue we had 🤞🏻so it should be back on track rather than limbo. It’s going to look a very different car from when it arrived.

So the Megapin pretty much went within 24hrs, I’ve still got some more jobs to finish before the new owner picks it up

Had a minute to spare so I did a bit more work on the DSP bodywork. Ran it through Ai to see what it would look like in black afterwards as it’s a patchwork at the moment. Looks good 👍🏻

The slow mo from Hillclimb tv when the suspension gained a small bend in the dip. GPS had me at 72mph. The rear right dropping after the bump and the wheel pointing left. Cheers to @zetecinsidecom for the paddock photo with me and the banana rod.

@laurencemarks64 on the slow mo you can see the suspension failure, looks like it went into positive camber at full extension as it went through the dip.

Think the one on the right had been bent previously. The one on the left is a first attempt at making a tie rod, bought the inserts and used bigger thicker tube. It’s a little bit rough and needs painting.

Working on the bodywork, it’s starting to come together. I’ve started to do the trimming on the Oms RA cockpit surround. I’m settled on the OMS sidepods. We’ve got a @fragileracing full front wing, barge boards and rear wing endplates. We are keeping the Nemesis nose too.

I could see this coming a mile off 😂I’m passionate about motorsport but wow, it’s amazing how quickly some f1 driver cults are triggered. 0-100 faster than an f1 car being justified or not, it’s sport it will never be 100% fair 100% of the time. If tomorrow we lose so be it.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
There are no reports of targeted abuse against stewards; reactions were widespread F1 fan criticism over harsh penalties on drivers like Franco Colapinto, easily verified in incident videos. The core issue is a demand for fair, objective stewarding, not hate speech.

Steps forward, the Megapin is now under 40s and into the 38s. First time out in the car since all the changes. Still too soft on the rear as it’s picking up the front corners. It definitely did make steps forward though and seat time will help.

When flat isn’t enough, I need more speed 😂 109mph round hollow bend. F1000 racing on a country lane @_SuperGT @JimmyBroadbent

When you neaten it up a bit you find the missing time, no mini slides on the exits of corners. Bit too much curb in hollow and at the top of kaurosel but apart from that tidy run 30.60

British Championship Hillclimb LIVE from Prescott youtube.com/live/4t9nArSSXrQ… via @YouTube quite possibly the last stream to be done by hillclimbtv. @tiff_tv any chance we can boost this. No super clipping or battery games involved.

Megapin was 9 years away from the hills. Few adjustments required but great first test. Not afraid to try out new cars, even got a bit of a slide out of Ashes.
