Guys, I've raised the issues with the poor driving standards in that video with Knockhill, and also with CCI. I've not received a response yet from CCI, but explained how our days are run to very strict guidelines etc. I ahve also invited them along to watch/participate in one of our events so they ...

Robin, as Phil doesn't have a car, and I can't offer him a refund (only a credit towards a future event) as we haven't yet covered our costs and/or have a reserve list, it would be easier for me on the admin side if you could simply arrange to pay Phil, and take over his slot. If this isn't practica...

Just to let everyone know, the event isn't sold out - in fact we've still got 13 slots available. Looks like it could be quite a quiet event for a change.

With a bit of work, new turbo, bigger injectors, exhaust, new rods, pistons and a bit of remapping, you can get a comfortable 500+bhp out of the 2.5 engine with plenty of mid range torque. If you want to go to real extremes, then Andy Forrest has tuned his 2.33 Impreza to silly levels of power, and ...

Even from the other side of the world (I'm currently in Babo, Papua!) I can't resist a good EVO/Scooby argument. ;) I will freely admit that for track work, and flat out road work the EVo is a much better car for the road. It's faster, more focussed and gets the job done very wel out of the box. It'...

I'll check with KH a few days before the event. I'm sure if a few of us offer to put them into place once the event has finished, then there wouldn't be a problem.

Cheers

Think of it this way. If something is about to break, far better it breaks at KH, when you have a chance to repair it before your trip, instead of travelling x thousand miles, doing 3 laps and retiring and then have the hassles of getting home again.

Ronnie is great, and has been coming to our events for about 5 years now. Always very careful fitting and removing tyres, and always keen on prices (particularly Yokohamas). Fitting and balancing is free, whcih again is a good saving. I'm sure if you clubbed together and bought a set of suitable whe...

Ross, I've got two Caterham guys on the reserve list called Martin Boakes and Trevor Newman, who were added courtesy of Andrew Smith. I don't have contact details for them, but as two people have now dropped out today, I can offer them both a slot. I've contacted Andrew, but not sure if he is workin...

I know someone with a few jerry cans who won't be using them this weekend. I could ask if anyone wants to borrow them (drop me an email please). Wheels Around will happily store a jerry can (or 2) for you whilst you are out on track.
