Brake fluid another local garage job then? Talking about nipples, one of mine is at about a 30 degree angle, i.e. almost sheered :-( Plus the skinny metal pipe that runs away from it is flattened slightly. Been meaning to ask for ages if these bits are available to buy seperately, and if so where f...

Green stuff are fine for mainly road use, but they overheat and go off without warning after a bit of abuse on track.
(or on the downhill bit on the last SE run round Rannoch... not nice)

well I couldnt see any need for the cones on the exit of the corner, like was said above, you could pull out of the way more safely if the exit was clear. I think they would go with that if we asked nice and explained it in that way.

Yeah, fair point there. Assume the roof was on, so no towing with the roll bar. It was for most of the soft S1 drivers, however myself and Mac managed to look the part and drive topless. :D I'll have a rear tow eye if there's a group buy. Giles I had my bits out as well... Group buy, count me in.
