no it's just my normal luck
+ I've now just managed to push the fecker up the drive but ricked my back in the process ...I'm off to bed
Terrible luch Clee, I was looking forward to seeing your car as well
On the plus side, the weathers looking a bit better.......
You do know that won't make him feel any better don't you?
Look forward to seeing you at Cadwell in March instead Lee
Think I've overstroked the clutch trying to get better fast shifts .Pisser is that it worked well yesterday but not today Maybe I've broken something
It was all going so well , put a new alt on as the old bugger died yesterday as well but I had one in stock + I had just taxed it online 10 mins beforehand .......
Time to just chill and get all the other little niggles done whilst it's on the deck over Winter for max attack next year
My turbo popped had to make a blanked T2 exhaust housing, so now i own a renault 5 gt............ should be rebuilt balanced and back together by dinner time so ill hopefully be there in the afternoon.
Brands in Jan and Cadwell in March will be posted on here so no excuses, I'm expecting to see you at both!
Tony, I'll see you when you land tomorrow
Cracking day, weather was great. Amazing circuit. Many Thanks to Alex, it was nice to meet you.
Glad you had a good time

how many rtoc did we get to this trackday by posting it up in the events section................erm...........1 at a push 2 plus clee who blew his clutch...
cheers dont let me here someone say we dont do enough trackdays..
Hi Jaffa
Glad to see that your guys had a good day and nice to see at least one GT out on track, I assume you got that fluid sorted Alex? Some of our days have had 10+ R5s so I hope that there is still a following for track driving on here and we'll get the numbers back up for the next one.

A great day had by all, glad the weather held off too which makes a change! It was nice to meet a few new RTOC faces, shame there wasn't a few more though as mentioned.....
I had limited running in the morning due to a few issues (got the leak sorted Steve - a pipe had come off the reserve tank ) Also, I couldnt manage anymore than 3 laps without the car over heating do to the new front mounted intercooler Plenty of things to see too over the winter
Looks like cracking weather
Seeing as I had nowt to do yesterday .......found the cause .
Clutch fly etc all fine .thrust bearing and carrier not so good .
I made it!!!! but.................... you'd all gone lol. still was a nice drive.
Great day thanks to robbo Jaffa for taking us out ,next time going to take the r27 out ,good to see Alex and blocky also
was a great day and our yellow megane ebay special held up well to the abuse it was getting,
nice to meet alex and was going to try and hint a ride in the 5 as it sounded very well.
What time did everyone leave? just to rub salt in my wounds lol
Stunning pics with the autumnal colours what a cracking day for it.
Lee tell us about those rapid gearchanges you were working on
Red 5 with white wheels was me. Was there just at the end searching round for someone lol.
Yeah nearly everyone had gone when i got there, A few very nice cars there tho. I didnt realise it was as close as it was, we pick up a v6 customers car round the corner.
Wish i'd got to see your 5 on track. if only it'd been done an hour earlier, i didnt get the turbo till 1.
A few snaps from the day -
Just want to say thanks to all the guys that came along to this one, everyone was commenting on how friendly everyone was both on and off the track which is exactly what we are looking for on our club events 8) .
Next up is Brands so hope to see you all there!
Steve H
wooooooo, my clio looking good in 1 of those pics
Hi Alastair
Brands will be on Jan 28th but it will be Indy not GP I'm afraid. There's a slight issue with the extra £20,000 (yep, 20 big ones) if we want the full circuit which makes the day pretty costly .
Anyway, I'll be posting a thread up on here and hopefully we'll get a decent RTOC showing
