I've not watched it yet. Trouble for him is, he's now a long way down the rabbit hole in terms of costs, so I guess he has to keep going still

That wasn’t good…
Too aggressive a run-in?
What @Swervin_Mervin said, but…. this sounds expensive….

Ignore the iffy steering wheel hand position on the camera car - this probably qualifies as a “good catch”

Man lifting that van gearbox at 1:23
My back hurt watching that. Also the state of its clutch/flywheel

It brings back memories of removing a Fiat Strada gearbox, solo in the scrapyard, with the car propped up on two trolley jacks resting on gravel, whilst trying to avoid rolling onto the the shit left by the guard dogs. AKA the good old days

The Goodwood coverage is great
The Williams clutch chap has created a good market for himself, best of health to him.
Turned out it wasn't his fault and his break in methodology would have been fine, if not for clearance, Clarence.
Still, at least he's now a veteran at Alpina engine install/removal. Five hours to pull an engine yourself ain't bad

TBF, he has got himself an awesome workshop setup. Room for 4 or 5 cars, Bendpack lifts and that uber-cool parts cleaner. I'd kill for a setup like that!
