Rough Luck Racing Update

A busy couple of days for Jon, in particular, in Carshalton for work on Mark and Jamie’s collection!

First up was some wiring on Mark’s V6 ZT. Which was interesting as something different to do.

Then on to Jamie’s Midget, ‘Betsy’ for some welding. While the inner and outer sills had already been repaired it left a lot still to do around the engine bay and foot wells. All day spent on her today and still more to do, so a date to be arranged to return. Jamie is undergoing a major conversion with this car having bought her 3 years ago when only 15 years old. Absolute credit to him for his enthusiasm and insight on his ideas. Head brought back with us for Jon to port match.

I on the other hand had an easy couple of days and only carried out the minor service on Mark’s lovely looking MGF 143 ‘Big Ears’ yesterday morning!

Always so lovely to see Mark and Jamie, such great company. Having a very large garage to work in was good for keeping our distances. Hopefully next time we see you we can hug each other!

The two hotels we have stayed in have been amazing in the way they are coping with everything, they’re ones that we have stayed in many times and after speaking to the proprietors they are just managing to keep running at the moment. Both normally so very busy, with a buzzing atmosphere, they were eerily quiet. Let’s hope they can keep going and make it through this. In particular ‘The Ship’ in Weybridge is lovely, but the two sister hotels in the area have shutdown sadly.
