So, 5 days to go?

Who's actually going??

Hopefully my car will handle nice after spending most of yesterday doing battle with seized collars on my 2nd hand coilovers :x :x :x

Otherwise, should be good to go!

Yeh, well its now sitting 10mm lower all round and I have less skin on my hands..... :roll:

Feckin cars!

As to whether its better or not, I'll let the timing decide! Certainly feels seriously planted with next to no pitch or roll, Just need to get the rebound versus damping right, its not 100% but impressed with how decent they still are on the road.

Exchange went fine thanks and no, I wasn't sad to see the back of it. Having the replacement helped and as I looked at it on the trailer I just thought "here's a whole bunch of dosh I won't be trying to spend on it nw."

It's all striaghtend out now, no more body kit, is back to the stock look & i far prefer it :grin:
I had a bit of an off into some tyres & stuffed the front/front corner in, very lucky it was only cosmetic damage.

Last time out at Debden there were 3 of us; Me, Mike S & some guy in a Audi A6, lets hope we get a few entries in B5, be nice if there were people I might beat too :-D I'm not expecting to pull of the Brands Hatch miracle.

Not seen you this year, will be good to catch up!
