GoodWood 2024 

@@autouniontypeA Yes we did the Friday. So that footage and photos are from Friday. I agree, a shame but people still seemed to be enjoying themselves !

@@matthias4428 Glad you like it !

@@DwightClark-x2s Great news always good to to have new subs ! Lots of stuff in the back catalogue are usual stuff is about the workshop but if I get to go somewhere interesting I’ll grab some footage for the channel. Keep watching and I hope you enjoy it. A new video every Sunday 10am .

@@nick_5005 Glad you are enjoying it Nick . It’s a Leica SL one from about 2015 I think. 50mm Summicron manual lens. The SL has the capability of a fully automatic lens but they are expensive and I quite enjoy the manual. You can see me holding it in a photo taken by Joe Devanny who is a professional photographer at the end of the Goodwood Members Meeting video. It’s quite a heavy camera and not a range finder but I am really enjoying using it.

@@marksitaliangarage Thanks Mark! I enjoy photography as a hobby and a few years ago ditched all my Canon DSLR gear to use an iPhone Pro Max which produces good results but I am really tempted to treat myself to a Leica if possible.... we shall see. PS I do like Joe's style too.

We still managed to have a great day. Last year it was so hot that it was somewhat of a relief the rain. But it would have been nice if it had stopped a little earlier in the day !

​@@marksitaliangarage hello Mark, thought you might be vaguely interested in the NA 2-litre 16V DOHC VVT engine based on a Fiat (Lampredi) 1500 block and Ferrari F136 head currently installed in the Fiat X1/9 driven by Gianluca Ticci. There's several videos of the car on yt. Cheers.

@@markbowden7238 Yes I am ! I will look it up.

@@marksitaliangarage I began a project to build a fast road modified X1/9 a few years ago. Might even be finished in another year who knows. I haven't weighed it yet and it hasn't been mapped, but I'm hoping for approx 795kg/155bhp. It has an all-synchro short close ratio 1/2/3/4 Bacci gearset and LSD. It has the original Fiat 5th gear for cruising and the original Fiat reverse. It has an Omex ECU, wasted spark distributorless ignition, Jenvey 40mm ITB's, big valves, Kent cam w. adjustable pulley, 11:1 compression, Faulkner springs 175lb" front 225lb" rear, Gaz 2-way adjustable struts, Addco front ARB, Tillett seat as per Lotus Elise Cup, Avon ZZS 185/55/13 on Image 6J rims. I enjoyed the video thanks 👍 Custom instrument panel with SPA digital stepper tach and speedo. 4x Hella fixed position headlamps instead of pop ups.

@@markbowden7238 cool ! I look forward to seeing it. ABARTH and Dallara did great things with the X19 . The Cosentino FAZA X19 race world was a real inspiration for me ! I found a copy at an auto jumble 30 years ago and I never really recovered !
