V6 Cambelt party - Brackley

Managed to get the feed working in Opera, but I had to Cut n paste the mms://81.155.121.110:8080/stream.wmv into the address bar, then it worked. Its a bit difficult to tell who's who, can you get them to wear name tags, so we can see who's doing what That chap in the yellow is obviously doing a main supporting job

Works where I am, albeit small in media player though still good

Do you think we could get them to move the camera down about 2ft, so we are looking diagonally into the engine bay?. The main item in the pic is a chap at the nearside of the car

Would be good if they could   all you can see at the moment is someones back to the camera

Wonder who it is wearing the england jacket

Its a shame they couldn't fit the Web cam to someone's head, so we could see what they were looking at on second thoughts maybe not

Hope all is well with the party though!

Well, across the 2 events, we have done 7 cambelts, 2 sets of rocker gaskets, an oil cooler plate, various simple little tasks etc.

A good number of people made it today, and have been well fed (thanks Max/Mick) and watered. Some of us have probably drunk to much, me included, but I think and hope everyone had an enjoyable day.

An awful lot was acheived today, and I suspect there will be some aches and pains tomorrow, but it was worth it imho.

Unfortunately, MaxV6's car wasn't quite so successful, which was a real shame, but I think we are a step closer to locating that bloody leak...

Theolodian did discover why his headlight was pointing low, and I will bet a pound that he doesn't free that motor off

All-in-all, a bloody good day.

Fantastic guys! Just wish I could have joined in. The first cambelt part was great, but this sounds like it was even better. How much have VX lost out on yesterday at their silly prices? £3000? more?

Congratulations to all of you.

Pics please.........

That block of rust, er motor, was on the table by the BBQ last I saw it . . .

Yeah, bloody good day for sure.  Lots of work done, Mick took care of us in the morning, then Max showed that he's equal behind a grill to MarkDTM under a bonnet!  Stellar Mega Meega BBQ!

I hope Max's car can get sorted soon.  A lot of people left very happy.  I was one of the ones getting a few random bits done, like;  HID, temp sensor reconnected, g/b update, and MarkDTM tightened up my steering box.  Added up to a big difference on the way home!  Also learned more about what else I need to fix.   I'm already hoping we can do another somewhere on March 24th.  

Who pulled over on the side of the road just outside Brackley around 10pm?  I was the car behind you.  Thanks for leading me out of TB's estate, I had been lost in there for at least 10 minutes!

I am very tired and sore.....12 hours non stop was a bit much.

Gutted that we didn't Fix MaxV6's coolent leak....it must be the stat bridge pipe or seal I think....it also needs a handbrake cable as the drivers side one is seized...
