Its got to be worth a shot cutting a circle of material from your old cards to glue into the winder hole...
That might end badly, with frayed edges, but try it. It might go well.

I was using a jigsaw & regular drill bits, but basically the edges of the hardboard were furry & when it came to the clips around the edges, I just couldnt get them in the holes I had drilled. I'm no carpenter but I didnt think cutting some board beyond my skills. Like I say, I ended up tearing up the cards I was replacing & using them as the basis for my homemades instead.Quote:

Understand what you mean about the holes. Hardboard is a funny material to work with. I have some punches I can use. Anything will be better than the rotten spilt crap I currently have!

So, i have been to Castle combe twice so far this year. Spanked it round for the action day in April then spectated for a wet retro and classic day. Then went to Billing. And thats about it!! Has not seen tarmac much this year to be honest. Time just has not allowed me to take it out!!
I did however manage a rare random drive out a week or so ago.
