Remember last year I wrote several articles about my first time at the 24 Hours of Le Mans? I released weekly articles back then. I stopped not to bore people with the same topic over and over. But I had not finished sharing everything I wrote. So! New article is coming soon! Read the first 4 🧵👇

Okay, this is quite outstanding from Bedford Council.

New reading matter has arrived. Had no idea there was a new series of G1-based comics that had started in 2023! So the first 5 TPBs have been ordered and a subscription for the individual comics has been started! @mrjalco.bsky.social will like this...

If you're on Instagram, please leave a comment voting for Smol Paul! It has no impact whatsoever, there's no prize, I just think he should win 😆

Bit of an easy one, that! Cardle 1/5 Streak 3🔥 🟢 🟢 🟢 www.playcardle.com

I am still looking for someone with some indoor workshop space who wants to help me do stupid shit to an MX5, BTW. I'll bankroll it, but we can both drive it. Just need space to do it under cover, and some help from someone equally mechanically-minded, because I'm quite mobility-limited right now 🤷‍♂️

Out having some beers with two of my best mates "You're putting it away, Ash!" "Well I'm going to spend the next few months getting irradiated and operated on and generally having my arse kicked, so I'm enjoying one last weekend of zero fucks" Which is, I think, fair enough!

That'll do! Cardle 1/5 Streak 2🔥 🟢 🟢 🟢 www.playcardle.com

Someone's just linked me to a video of an MX5 with a 3.0 V6 Jag engine in and now I'm having impure thoughts. Anyone got a garage and an engine hoist and want to help me do something really very silly? 🤣

I see @officialscalextric.bsky.social are doing double reward points on in stock items. Be rude not to take advantage. All 3 fall under the "Was at that race/have seen it race" justification 😎

Good morning welcome to Tippetty tap tap Thursday Kindness makes a difference. It isn’t always simple, and some days you may not have the strength to give it. That’s ok But whenever you can, add a little love to the world, because all of us need more of it than we realise

Damn it, went just a fraction too early on the year Cardle 2/5 Streak 1🔥 🟢 🟢 🔴 🟢 🟢 🟢 www.playcardle.com

Delaying the potential MX5 toy for a bit. That little op I had yesterday is giving me more pain and mobility issues than I had thought 😭 So unless one pops up which is largely rust-free, the right spec, and just down the road (unlikely), it's on hold for a bit. Yeah, I know, I'm sad about it too

Wheel specs for the Michelin steelies are 5.5Jx14 ET16, 4x108, and 65.1mm centre bore. No idea how that tallies with a Caterham! Can't beat a Seven on steelies though.

Night night sweet dreamies This feeling won't last forever. It'll disappear into the corners of your heart, still a part of you, but not consuming you You will get through this 🧡

Further to earlier conversations I have found a cheap 2007 2.0 MX5 ragtop with no rust on the MOT history... very tempted!

Actually really like this!

Clearly houses exist to keep books dry and cats safe from traffic, else we would all live under tarps strung between trees.

Right then. I know there are MX5 fans among my lovely lovely followers, even if I have forgotten who you are. NA, NB, NC? (Don't think anything newer is within budget, and I want to not GAF if/when I twat it into cones at an autosolo) 1.6, 1.8, 2.0? 5 speed, 6 speed? Talk to me!

This might be my new favourite song. Amazing. youtu.be/Ko1szxIiTEc?...

Happy Monday everyone! Today is a special day. I want you to join me in celebrating @twod.net's birthday 🎂 Marcus has been a pillar in my art beginnings back on Twitter times, almost 8 years ago (damn!). He's a wonderful artist who's constantly lifting others up. Thankful to call you friend 🫶

MX5s really can be picked up for peanuts, can't they... 🤔

Ah, Monday. Yay. Got a small op tomorrow, in and out same day. Local anaesthetic though. I hate having stuff done under local 🤦‍♂️ Oh well. At least I'll be able to drive home! Hopefully have a window regulator arriving soon so I can sort the 322's window out with a bit of help 🤞

I know my "public front" looks like I'm coping with this bastard thing quite well, and by-and-large the private 'coping' matches the front you all see But sometimes, just now and again, it weighs a bit heavy, y'know? And sometimes I need to get that out. You lot are amazing and I💜U

Dunno if I've mentioned this already, but cancer sucks

Yes, need more @omologato.bsky.social content here.

Yes we’ll post more on here 🙌🏼

Ding ding ding, we have a winner! It's the business end that sheared and locked the car in 4th If Jan had tried literally one more gear change, the box would've shit itself into a million pieces

One million internet points to anyone who can ID the exact part I'm holding, what car it came from, and why it is historically important. @creatinglightly.art is banned because I told him already 😂 Anyone who was at JLR Classic this afternoon is also banned 🤣

Any of my UK motorsport peeps au fait with AutoSolo? My boy Chris and I are thinking about some stuff...

Oi, @omologato.bsky.social, just seen the IDEC LM thing from twitter courtesy of a mate who still uses that cesspit. Any chance of you cross-posting more stuff on here? I miss you guys!

Ooo, 405 followers! Only one vehicle to post really 😍 Anyone who thought I might post a Peugeot doesn't know me very well 😆

Wasn't sure I was going to be able to make this when it was booked a few months ago. Turns out I am 😀 (I know that preview looks weird but is the right link to the event!) app.sheepcrm.com/jec/events/j...

Another good one today! Too bad I only had time for one wheel. But in the same way "winning's winning", progress is progress, I guess? 😂 🏁 Repost if you enjoy following the process behind the scenes 💛 Thank you 🫶 #CreatingLightlyWIP

I really like these for the Williams and Escort rally connections but I just can't have people thinking I'm a beetle fan 😂

A probably dangerous thought has occurred to me. Maybe instead of a silly car purchase, I get something to do AutoSolo/Sprints in 🤔 Could rope a mate in too. Especially if they have somewhere to keep the car... It's an idea, isn't it?

Night night sweet dreamies It’s okay if you’re not always positive. Life holds a full spectrum of emotions, and you’re allowed to feel every one of them. You are valuable and worthy exactly as you are, exactly as you feel.

Absolutely no idea at all 🤣 Cardle 5/5 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🔴 🟢 www.playcardle.com

I’m not saying these billionaires are literal vampires but we should treat them as if they are. You know, stakes etc

Did you know? 🚗🖌️ People went crazy when the Jaguar XJ220 came out and became the fastest production car in the world in 1992. And when no one thought it could get better, Jaguar and Tom Walkinshaw Racing (TWR) asked for their beer to be held, and developed the XJ220 C to race at Le Mans. 🧵(1/4)

Using AI as a company just makes you look cheap and scammy. I can't tell if everyone in tech is pretending not to know this or they just really have their heads so far up their asses that they can't see the obvious.

Ahh damn it, this is going to indefinitely delay my silly car purchase 😭 I guess it'll be all the sweeter if/when it happens 🤷‍♂️

Really could've done without the window failing to roll back up this morning. Didn't have time to fuck about with it prior to my appointment so drove there and back freezing my nuts off. Have now cling-film'd it until I can deal with it. Which I just can't today. Just. Can't.

Fairly major UPDATE! I guess the short version is this, after a fashion. youtu.be/n-Swfm3CLAc?...

Gary Neville spent two hours banging on about the Chelsea masterplan and how he reckons they'll score... How'd that work out, Gary? 😎 #OneNilToTheArsenal
