Real bad luck Al and I hope you get sorted without too much hassle and expense. Sounds like it must be oil pump trouble. Can you run the dam thing off the car and check it anyhow? When we raced Crapis we had similar trouble and made a jig thing with a oil feed and gauge so we could run it with a drill.
From my point of view it was a good race. Managed to make a demon start and run in 3rd overall for a couple of laps with a Cossy nagging at my arse until Ken Lark caught us up and I though it was safer to let em by...
Baby faced Assasin had a mega prang coming out of Charlies behind me which looked a bit scarey but luckilly he got away without too much damage..
