Looking very promising, better put the sticky tyres on at the weekend.

Thursday looking good still.



Changed the oil and filter today.
Fitted track wheels and tyres.
Stiffened suspension.
Had a good check under the car. All looks good for Thursday.





Difference between the Kumho road tyres and the Federal track tyres.



And a few second reminder again from last outing at Snetterton.

  1. ###### Has anyone booked a garage apart from me? If so, let me know on here and I will ask them to group them together. ##########

I tried to book one but they were sold out, so I'm hoping you'll let me store a few of my bits and bobs in the corner of yours.smile

Slight technical hiccup found this morning while changing the wheels. Luckily Mat Smith has come to the rescue and is going to fix it tomorrow.

Been there et cetera. A bit of welding or you can buy the reinforced drop link mounts and have them welded on.

A poor design originally!

Apparently I'm in garage 16 and you are in garage 4.

They can't change the numbering as it was sorted out a few weeks ago apparently, (probably because they had to let MSV know in advance).

They said we are quite happy to swap with whoever is in an adjacent garage if it's okay with them.

I should be there first thing so I'll see what I can do and maybe you do the same. See you tomorrow.
