Postage for a baffled sump? jumped into my head earlier

Sixteen quid is stuck in my mind, but memory isn't what it used to be.... breathed too many weird gasses when I was younger

[phazed]

Probably but I'm not loosing any sleep over it

Buy me a cup of tea next time.

[phazed]

Booked today.

Daz, are you booked?

[QBee]

Booked. Hope Daz can make it. Looking forward to seeing you all again.

That’s about the only car you will blast past.......but I will lend you some track tyres if you are feeling the need for grip

Just caught up with this, would really have liked to join in, catch up etc. but flying back from a holiday on the 26th. Sprinting at Goodwood on the 28th though, so I will have my fun there. Hope you all have a good day, be interesting to see the results of the comparisons.

Sounds like a fun day out of the office might be in order. Track day silencer already fitted and as John fitted my S/C might be a good time to test it out bit.

Not going to be able to offer accommodation this time round chaps, going to be out of the country for a while

Hope you all have a really great day... John, I'll pop over for a natter when I get back..

Cant you just leave the key under the plant pot. ?
Make sure the fridge is full of beer and wine .



Peter, do I owe you money?

[boxer456]

Yer Yer.

What do you need for a trackday these days? The last one I did was about 20 years ago at Snetterton in a 1975 Alfasud with a few mods, great car.

Presume: Crash helmet, petrol? Thats it?

[phazed]

Licence.

Next time Daz

Beer and wine not a problem either, have dedicated beer fridge in the kitchen, and another in the garage
Arrangement will however require that you service my outside combi boiler and install new power shower whilst enjoying the delights of my modest but charming country pile

It's a "drive each other's cars" day, Nick........

.........sooooo, which of your fleet will you be bringing?

Or do we get to vote on it?

so this is what I am bringing -

420R Donington Edition - has sequential box, LSD and lots of bits from the 620R (but with slightly less crazy power)



Happy to give lots of rides - it's quite an experience.

I was over taken astonishingly quickly by one of these today and the gear change sounded funny - guessing that was a sequential box! Nice looking car. Should be good around Snetterton

[QBee]

.....all it needs is a good stash of brown paper bags in the glove box to be a perfect passenger ride.

My first passanger/victim on Saturday @ Bedford had to be given anti-sickness pills after coming out with me #youhavebeenwarned

That's a nice machine ,I thought you had some type of track race car you were using in a series .

Been hanging my nose over a Caterham but its driving it on the road what puts me off .

Caterham just a track toy - this is the race car



The less extreme Caterhams (with a windscreen + roof covers) are pretty usable, my car is road legal, but you wouldn't want to go far!
