Re: Big thanks to Murrays in Edin again

I again have just had great service from Craig and the rest of the team at Murrays. Last year it was a "C" service which uncovered worn pads and a blowing exhaust downpipe which I was able to organise with Craig, ordering Pagid RS42s from Elise Parts while on holiday in France :D Although the total ...

Re: White Exige Bridge of Allan

Gedi, Wasn't me. Thought about commuting today but -3 C this morning so decided against it. Took it to work a few days last week and had an anxious tail wiggle moment on a cold morning (definitely not ice) accelerating into a gap on the roundabout turning left off the bypass on to the Fallin road. B...

Ged, Was returning from Glenshee in my old V70 and let you out onto the high street.
White Exige looked good.

Re: SIDC 15th September

Thats me signed up. I've had my Lotus a couple of years now and have done the Knockhill Performance Driving course, a circuit training day with Walshy at Blyton Park, and Kevin then persuaded me to do my first track night at Knockhill (reverse) with Monklands Sports Car Club a couple of weeks ago an...

Re: Darker blue 135R at Troon

Nice to be spotted! :lol: My son was playing for Stirling County and had gone on the bus so I decided to go and watch him, went the long way round by the A70 since I remembered that the road from the M74 to Kames was great. :thumbsup Are there any other roads round there I should have used? Didn't n...

Re: Blue S2 Sun between Donue and Dunblane.

It was me, I'd just washed it and was taking it up to the Keir roundabout to dry the brakes and saw you a couple of cars ahead heading off to Doune. Decided to go a bit further and followed you as far as Dunblane before turning around and waiting for a long break in the traffic heading back to Doune...

Re: B&Q Low Entry Jack

Thanks to thread I managed to pick up one of these jacks from Coatbridge on Tuesday night. Used it to-day, its a lot better than the old one in my garage which was too high to get under the Lotus. Also went out and bought myself a torque wrench using up all the money I'd saved and a bit more. Can't ...

Re: Possible Walshy Day Friday 12th (or Monday 8th) November

Mark, Glad that you managed to get the reserve space on the Thursday, perfect timing for your trip to Spa! Since no-one else is interested in driving down at this time I've decided to cancel my provisional booking Monday 8th but am still very interested in doing a Walshy day, especially if there som...

Possible Walshy Day Friday 12th (or Monday 8th) November

Following my Performance Driving experience at Knockhill two weeks ago, Mark H and I talked about trying to arrange a Walshy Day before the end of the year. At the time, Mark contacted Car Limits to try and arrange the day to coincide with his visit to Spa and posted on here that Friday 12th Novembe...

Re: Tuition at KH - before or during trackday?

Forgot to add (Mark) that Friday 12th November is a possibility for me as well and it seems that there are no bookings on that day yet on the website if anyone else was thinking of going from SE?

Re: Tuition at KH - before or during trackday?

I was told as soon as I arrived that someone (in a Lotus!) had already been off the track in the morning by Graham my instructor, was it him you were with? Anyway he encouraged me to build up speed slowly and at the end I felt like I was going pretty fast but still had to pull over for Mark in his E...

Re: Tuition at KH - before or during trackday?

I wonder if you're on the same session as me, I'm 3 pm on Tuesday 12th October. I've recently bought Kayfur's old 135R and he recommended I booked one of the performance driving sessions to learn how to handle the car properly. Am actually a bit disappointed that it looks like its going to be dry si...
