It's all over for me, suspected clutch failure... I'm still mobile but horrible vibration in the peddle and wierd noise above 3k rpm.

Managed a 8:16 and a 8:07 with a good few hold ups on both runs at the ring this morning, I would have had a 7:50 were it not for this problem. Gutted!

Passenger laps it is then.

Hi Martin , yep loads of video just need to sort through ect , struggled to get a clear lap as there was a lot of cars booked in !!! Managed to hit 150 down Kemmel straight which was fun , also managed a 80mph spin in the middle of pouion which was pretty scary !!!!!!

Shaun got it all on film biggrinbiggrin

Great couple of days at Spa; great to see the big power boys there as well - long time since I've hunted as a pack! Waffe now licking wounds. Sorry Hollowpockets was Nobless, would have been awesome with all of us out there together. Next leg of the trip - Zandvoort. See you there guys!
