Hi it's from Ultimate trailers in CO. I have the OHT3X which isn't on their website, but is available if you talk to them. It's a slightly longer version of the standard OHT3 https://www.theultimatetrailers.com/trailers/oht3/ It's great if you're looking for a simple lightweight trailer. The air suspension is perfect for a lightweight car like a Caterham, and loading and unloading is a breeze as it lowers eliminating the need for ramps. Tows very smoothly, fits through a standard single garage door and even folds for the winter. I attached a few pictures, if you need more information let me know. Cheers

BTW I feel like Seb’s crash test dummy, I thrash my car around the track looking for weaknesses in our project and he sits at home and polishes his extra carbon fiber

Ive forgotten Seb’s exact thunderbolt lap time but I was at least -1sec so well worth sacrificing an engine. I think the piston will buff out and my son helpfully suggested I can seal the hole in the block with Flextape, the guy on the TV says it seals anything.

Caterham’s rarely put out enough voltage at idle to charge the battery. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I would not run on track without an oil cooler. I have fitted a Mocal water oil cooler, picture attached, not the most professional installation as I never went back and made a bracket, but hey it’s kept the car cool for 5 years of regular track use. The fittings are AN12. Most people run a standard air oil cooler, which works well. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Only small chance of rain after 6pm on Sunday at the earliest according to my trusted Millville weather app. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

That was a fun and occasional leery afternoon. Hold on Thunderbolt’s day two that’s promising you have confidence in a late Brexit. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Vovochandar The only thing you need to know about me, is that my passenger ride laps come with a British accent, and are a little less time consuming than Croc’s. Look forward to seeing you this weekend and would be happy to take any guests out on track. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
Just bought a Birkin. Need transmission advice.

I have a BGH gearbox in my Caterham, which I’ve tracked enthusiastically for the last 3 years and it’s been great. They have their own alumminium (spelt correctly) casings, which are a nice upgrade to the standard box. Highly recommend Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

OK I’ve started to think about track days again. I’ll be there for sure. Happy to offer passenger rides and to provide some driving instruction for Seb, he must have forgotten how to do it by now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
I believe caterham have changed ECU to run engine temperatures around 100 C. Apparently a request of Ford. I heard this from Blake (don’t remember his forum name) his new Duratec is also running at these temps. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My 6’1” son. S3 with lowered floors and Tillet seats. I think you’ll fit and I personally find the seats comfortable even on longer drives, but padded seat inserts available and only add about 1” of height. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -
