I'm there with dazren - I'd love to go, but it is too far from London and therefore would need to stay over one night.

Negotiations concluded sucessfully with the Mrs this evening to go to Spa with RMA in May, but there is still some way to go if I want to do the Ring beforehand. Bringing up an Oulton Park overnighter at this delicate stage of discussions may jeopardise the European trip...!

I do Milton Keynes to Comberbach [very near Oulton] in a diesel 4x4 pick up in 2hrs 15 mins at least twice a week. So London to Oulton can only be 3 hours tops with this new toll road. Dont tell her just set off early.

Sorry mate. I won't be there, due to not being able to wear a helmet in my car (lack of headroom). One not to miss for everyone else though.

I have booked a handful of trackdays for the season so far, including some pcgb events. Of the bunch the 27/Aug event at Brands to coincide with the "Festival of Pork" looks a must.

Yes. I must book up that one...the places will definitely sell out early.

I'm thinking of NOT doing Silverstone this year as the cash involved would buy TWO track days elsewhere...BUT..it IS "the daddy" of PCGB days so....

Decisions decisions.

Hopefully I'll see you at one or two PCGB days then, mate.

Apparently its the trouble tracking down an industrial set of anti badger stabaliers, plus raising the ride height to cayenne levels- for when the stabalisers fail & an off road expedition is imminent that has been causing the delay

Just getting my last few Badger gags in as after talking to Dom today & learning what reg plate he will be putting on the Badgermobile, I will be taking a more felatio based slant on the Dom- who will then be known as Dom-Hugh.Grant-ster on this 'ere forum , abuse

Hmmmn. Its a long way north for me, Oulton Park...

Will you have the baron out at any other days, Dom. I'd still really like to enjoy a tour of a circuit in it....

Forwards or backwards?

I want to do Brands this year, plus maybe a Brunters sesh, and one at Bedford, so it will be out and about

As for the reg plate B10VVN, it would also suit Joust's Noble but if Hugh Grant was to make me an offer I may let it go. At some point I will supercharge it or put a Turbo 4 lump in it, just to make the plate a little more relevant...

As for the Iguana, he should cut back on the badger baiting and get back to laying some tarmac or he may find himself underneath it - being used as Class A aggregate propping up the foundations of a bridge stradling the A34

I'll see you there Piers. I know of two other 993RS's coming along, so it will be a pretty strong RS turnout. Can't wait...!

Race yah..






In no way would I do that. I know the rules. All I am saying is that I will certainly enjoy seeing how your 964RS performs on one of my favourite tracks...
