So what tyres to take for tomorrow?

According to the weather forecast it could be dry, wet, or somewhere between.

Tyre choices: Toyo R888; Dunlop full wets; Goodyear F1 Asymetric.

Decisions, decisions :grin:

i'l be running yoko parada spec 2's
heard good reviews for quite a few people , gbh love them aswell and are really good in the wet apparently

cars just been dropped of by jamie so were good to go (i think) im running low boost as i need to get the avcr set up properly so this is bypassed for now , i might just go out and pick up a bleed valve in a while for a temp fix

Sod it! Went out to finish a couple of little jobs, load the car, ready for the off and then give it a wash.

By the time I'd finished the jobs and had a couple of phone calls, some textxs back and forth, it was time to take Ozzy for his evening walk. Just back and I really can't be arsed to wash the thing. With luck it'll rain so it won't be noticed. :grin:

Sorry to let the side down chaps.

Tomorrow's first round will be a steep learning curve in terms of the handicap system. I'm still waiting to hear back from Spence on the way that we can implement it, so worst comes to the worst, I'll have to use the basic details I have to get the scores worked out. This will all be sorted for round two onwards, I promise. The MSA are yet to confirm the series so until they do I won't be charging a series entry fee but once again, you can expect that to be in place for round two at Bentwaters.

No wash, no real prep but it shouldn't make any odds to the ditchfinder :lol:

All loaded on the trailer and ready to go

I'll be leaving the shire at 6am and landing at around 7.30 I hope. See all of you guys there :)
