Car is now ready! I'm going in my old sport, see if the new suspension mods make a difference to last year. Hartge roll bars, strut brace and H&R cupkit springs matched to my inverted bilsteins

Shes serviced up

cambelt+tensioner,plus other belts
waterpump
dizzy
rotor
sparks
oil
coolant

Brakes and suspension are up to the job already so not as expensive as last year.
I'm taking my camera this year as i forgot last year (nob head)

I hope the weather holds out for us so we can have some fun, if i was dave i would pray for rain!

I will give a full report when we get back! need to sleep as were up at 4:30

lets have it :burn: :wave:

it should be on the top 10 list of all petrol heads, half the fun is the road trip and beer etc the track just tops it off

cheers Robin for that! i will tell the boys 2moro.

The sport hit the majic 100k barrier last week :cry: my bro in law didn't notice until 100,001! plank

Hell they are to be driven are they not

We have a camera too, so i can film some laps. Maybe if i'm brave i'll do one in Dave's Civic. At least it has a cage this year. I doubt that will comfort me that much!

Dont get caught filming - they'll boot you off! Pull the camera down if you see a bike marshall/safety car/accident scene

Its OK to film from the trackside though

You need a sneaky bulletcam install for filming laps winkeye
