It's quite literally all the oil that has left the party, so either the sump isn't sealed, the drain plug has left the building or my engines blown. Sump plug is easy, sump is more complicated but fixable today, let's not consider option 3 🤣
Has the dipstick been blown out as well ?
Which can happen if it pressurises
Nope. Was really smoking so I pulled over. As soon as I turned the engine off the oil p***ed out

On a much smaller note... Anyone have a spare towing eye? It would appear that my mechanic has mine..

I have only one which I should be OK with but just in case..

They all have x2 in the kit don't they? So surely everyone on the stand has a spare?

Do you know the thread of it? If so I may be able to pick one up on the way if I’m lucky but I can’t guarantee anything.



Looking forward to it tomorrow and I think I have everything. Quite exciting as it’s my first club event but really looking forward to it!
