DDK - Die Deutschen Klassiker

Just spotted the 2022 dates for the monthly meet up at the Fairmile in Surrey. Originally organised by true gent , the late Chris Turner of this parish.

This slipped off of the radar last year for various reasons so let's make the effort this year lads. see details below.

Thx dave - in the diary - must try harder this year

Great. I'm planning to go. Hopefully more than just me in April!

Reminder: Fairmile tonight lads.

I was intending to take the SC to Fairmile tonight, but will have to take the daily.

I can't get my CIS tester gauge to seal - both the adapter to the fuel distributor and the gauge bleed valve. The net result is 5.2 bar system pressure initially, but can't get over 3 bar most of the time since. Unless I can get repeatable system pressure readings, then there's no point in going any further. I did start the car and boy oh boy, is it running rich, so I expect to make some adjustments to the WUR. Once system pressure is addressed (not suspecting the fuel distributor, as it was fine before, but I do have a set of washers to adjust it if needed), I think warm control pressure, then cold control pressure (after it has cooled overnight).

I've ordered a few copper sealing washers to address the leaking adapter issue, and contemplating buying another gauge set for the leaky bleed valve. Is anyone going to Fairmile that can lend me a set of gauges please ?

Nice to see a few old friends tonight, plus a few faces new to me

It was a good event. Plenty of cars... only a handful of early cars though. It was great to meet a few DDKer's

Paul

Be good to get some early cars down to this. I spoke to GavP and he and I have put 18th May in the diary.

What chance of getting some of the band back together? Andy, Mike, Paul, Nick, Neil, JB, Peter, Jonathan, Clive, Viv (!) + plenty I've missed. It would be great to see you

Now that's something to aim for......

I was going to comment about the 'original' organiser of the Fairmile meets........

The Grand Originals will remember it grew out of a Volksworld show gathering in 2006

I can’t do May, but I’m up for the June one

Good call by Will to get some of the OG crew together:

I always remember my first DDK / Chris T Fairmile meets, those were summer 2005 so I’m feeling dead old now as I try to find the pics.

Sadly can’t make tomorrow’s meet though: get your cameras out guys!

Still planning to get to the Fairmile tomorrow - look forward to seeing you guys down there.
