Re the personal fire extinguisher, can it just be sat in the car (say glove box) or does it need to be fixed in place somewhere?

We recommend the extinguisher is situated in the glove box, drivers door pocket etc, somewhere easily accessible, NOT the boot, and not where it can fall out and roll about. If you wish to secure it to the passenger footwell etc you can, but not mandatory.

If your extinguisher has a mounting bracket. you can use a couple of jubilee clips to attach it to the passenger door handle (wrap a tea towel round the plastic/leather first!)

Booked-in for Saturday! Hoping to bring something somewhat inappropriate, currently awaiting parts to resurrect it after 3+ years off-road following an accident which wrote it off....

If not I'll turn up in something even more unsuitable that probably won't see more than a lap or two on the track, try and blag a ride or two and just enjoy the atmosphere of the day.

Looking at the booking list, there's Porkers, an F430, M5's, Nissan GTR's, an Allard..... And a whole bunch of Ford Transit vans all enrolled.... So it's sure to be the usual mix of awesomeness! :-)

If everything works out, we are excited to say we should have a precision driving display and possibly other bits put on by the kind chaps from Mission Motorsport (www.MissionMotorsport.org) who do some fantastic work with serving/ex-servicemen so please be sure to say hello!

I'm definitely coming too.

April 2017.... Hmmm.... I think that makes it precisely 10 years that I've been bringing the Red Nova to Marham.
