Bring a helmet and you can ride as a passenger with this lot for free, all you need to do is sign on. You can even drive for no extra cost providing you can find someone willing to let you drive their car!

If you don't have a helmet and can't borrow one you can hire one for a tenner.

I will be there but in a Hilux as i do the recovery, cone ambulance & pitlane.

Nothing wrong with them at Elvington :)

I'll be there with my newly bought Nexxen and Maxxis tyres, they came free with that set of 17's I was telling you about, brand new tyres and mint wheels, will have to scrub them in a bit though.

We'll have to have a night out before or after.....

Small turbos - they're not big and they're not clever!

Why don't you come down with Chris and rent his car for a bit? He seemed to hint he'd be willing to do that earlier in the thread, bung him £20 and then forget to come back into the pits until the tyres are shredded and it's run out of fuel :)

I might not be ble to enter in the event....and I might not be able to get down at all.

My exhaust has started to blow....again (manifold)......my oil return pipe from the turbo has got a nasty kink in it so its blocking up and blowing oil into the turbo.....and my rear wheel bearings are knackered......YAY!!!!! So car is going to be off the road for most of this month, and I want it in tip top condition for the RR day :D

Shock-a-doodle-doo

Do you have your excuses ready for the dyno day yet?


I reckon that's a standard engine and you've just thrown a load of random pipes and an old radiator in there to make it look clever - you are too scared to admit this so you never race it.

Come on you can be honest with us!

:twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :D HAHAHAHAHAHA ramdom pipes....LOL!

I will tell you what lads....I will bring my car and let you put it on the Track and if anything blows/gets broken you can pay for it to be fixed. I will do that :)

I will try my best to get there.....as I have said I have got my helmet :wink:

Car is going in for the exhaust tomorrow, and to check the oil pipe and am picking up the wheel bearing tonight.....we will see....we will see :D

When do you need payment?

As much as I'd like you to pay me to attend it's Bookatrack you need to settle up with :)

You can pay as late as you like but you risk the places going, ideally I think they prefer the balance 7 days before the event but Lauren can probably confirm if they are flexible on this, I've known people pay on the day in the past.
