I will be there fitting a new clutch tonight so fingers crossed I don't mess it up!

You in a 220? I'm in a RAW Fulcrum (pic in profile) which you are welcome to passenger if you fancy

[vx 220]

Yeah i'll be in a blue 220. That looks like quite a toy you have there. Would love pax ride in that!!

I would offer a pax in mine too, but i would imagine it wouldn't be a patch on what you're used too, plus i only have one seat in the car.


Thanks
Chris

1 seat? What happened to the other?? Weight loss or misplaced it

[vx 220]

Weight loss (read that as too expensive to add another tillett b5 and harness to take people out on track). The car only really gets used for track days, although when funds/the other half allow I'll stick a second seat in.

Clutch all in and full throttle working again now I just can't wait to abuse it again!! Fingers crossed for the weather.

[vx 220]

Good news!!

Hoping it will stay dry. Last outing at brands would have been better off in a dingy.

If you don't have a garage booked, you are more than welcome to share mine if you don't mind splitting the cost?

Chris

[shaun fulcrum]

Thanks for the offer but I've got one booked too.
My last outing was a beautiful day although cut short by gearbox failure I call that sods law, as you know if it was raining the car would run perfect all day, you just wouldn't enjoy getting wet.

[vx 220]

No problem.

See you there

Great day good weather cars and people only 1 in the gravel so far and a xj220 losing a wheel .such a shame on such a fantastic car .

Popped in briefly as was passing while testing the new clutch on the mx5, after watching a few laps I really need to do another track day soon

[vx 220]

Had a really good day today. Somehow managed to get through two and a half tanks of fuel.

Some very quick cars and all very curtious to the slower cars (apologies if I held anyone up too much!!).

Sorry I didn't say bye Shaun, was being badgered to get out if the garage by a biker.

Give me a shout when you're at snetterton next.

No worries, it was like an invasion wasn't it!

Sorry I never got round to taking you out, there's just never enough time on a trackday!!! (minus 3 hours of sorting the car!).

Will deffinately let you know when I'm at snetterton and will make your passenger session a priority

Jealous! Brands Hatch is fantastic, wish I could have gone, not bad that only one car hit the gravel, good times!

No problem at all, very interesting car you have there, happy to help out

Hi - Indeed a great day.

I was there and loved every minute of it

Such a shame for the XJ220 owner though - it had to be the expensive one didn't it !

Well thankyou for the delicate job you did very much appreciated!
Not really a club I wanted to be in but proud all the same.
