I'm not commiting till after Friday's excursion at Brunt .............
Plan to fit my new charge cooler this weekend and have a go at fixing the turbo oil leak. Now on crappy road tyres so may just make it
Kind of want bad weather as it would not be the same in the dry without the R888's
Driving in the snow the on Tueday has given me a taste for driving beyond the limit of grip :

i still don't know on this one......
will not know until the 17th and then it maybe too late, but even if I cant get there in my own car, I may still go as a passenger ......we'll have to see....LOL
From what iv read on cliospoet theres not many places left at all...
I know......Oulton usually sells out....
have you done it before??
not as a driver, been to lots of trackdays there though.....LOL....
I can't believe you haven't driven Oulton yet Paul
Still quite a few other names on the list that haven't booked yet, there is space for you all but I can't say how much longer it will last!
whats the deal with pasengers? ive paid for one to be in my car, but what happens if i wana take other people out?
You can take anyone who has a passengers or drivers wristband on.
COMON PEOPLE WHAT THE FECK IS WRONG WITH YOU LOT GET YOUR BLOODY NAMES DWN B4 ITS TOO LATE....HARD WORK AS USUAL..............
Don't you shout at me jaffa cake
I need to fix a big oil leak or you'll all be sliding off or in the tyres through the smoke .This involves making some M7 bolts as I can't get any .Add to that cheques coming in ,work ,kids and the weather ....
I'll be there if I possibly can .

Only just over a week to go.....
Time to get the rest of you booked isn't it!
nah that will be it it think, rtoc rule of 3 means that off the list only 4.6 people will attend, 4 there already lol tho it might be +1 from me as a mate is wanting to come along, will post on here if he adds his name to the list
Spent all weekend fixing other vx's and doing various mods and had NO time to play with mine not even time to dry the plug / coil out causing misfire on full boost lol
Adey you know I make MOST events
Was speaking to Alex S about a last track day for the year and may just both turn up and shock you all
No point me pushing the car hard on track until I sort my last few niggles - waste of money and poss break something - again lol
i know bud, if you dnt break somthing ure not pushing hard enough lol, ive got loads of stuff to do to mine, alot of it was ment to be done months ago but its not essencial so i havnet been assed to do it lol, i do the bare essentials to get me to the next track day and wing it a little lol. looks like theres a fair few clubs going too, sxoc and cliosport.net to name 2, bring the vx and show em how to do it
Well that would be the plan lol and get someone to bring my spare alloys with track tyres in case its dry (not much left on them though lol)
If it is in tip top condition by the end of next weekend (have a full day spare) and there are still places going I will have some of it
I am going to be up in the area so will pop in to see you guys on tuesday. Would love to get a few laps out if possible. (I will bring my helmet just in case!)
More than welcome Bruce .I might need some extra weight up front if it's still raining by Tuesday
Hi Fellas
Five days to go and we've decided to further reduce the maximum number that we will book for this event to try to guarantee no queueing for the drivers. As a result, there's now only about six places left avaialable so if anyone would like to book please let me know asap!
If spaces do remain, the on-line shop will be open until 8:00pm on Monday and we will sell any last places on the day but without discount.
For those that have booked, we will be sending out an info pack and indemnity forms by email over the weekend, if you haven't received yours by Sunday night please contact Phil on the Trackaction-Online forum.
Thanks
Steve H
Last chance, there's just a few spaces left and the forecast is dry
Hopefully be going to this now and will book later today
Just need to work out how to get my spare alloys and track tyres and track goodies there as there is just not enough on the rears to get there all day track day followed by a drive home! They will not be road legal lol
But also want to come on road tyres in case it rains
Still got a few small things to do but nothing that would stop me going
That is a great option but I cannot even keep the hard top on for the track as I cannot fit in woth my helmet on LOL

Only 18 miles tomorrow rather than 97 from home
Even got Neils clio full of spare wheels / and loads of track stuff lol although hope he does not get stuck in traffic as he has my helmet :O does not fit in the vx boot lol
Lol Duncan, luckily the car makes up for it's lack of room in other ways
Have fun tomorrow boys and take some pics for those of us that can't attend
It's too bloody early

Have had an update, so far Minty has spun off and Dunc pulled off a nice 560 degree job
