Still a few slots left if anyone wants to have some fun on Saturday?

I'm not going to be able to do this one now, so if anyone would like to buy my slot please get in touch... How come cars always break at the worst possible time :(

One of my rear dampers has started leaking. Just in time for its MOT too! It's just frustrating as I haven't done a track session at Knockhill since the Speedfair event and had been looking forward to this one :(

I'll still be up to spectate though, if Ronnie is about then I'll bring the Exige so I can get some new boots fitted too.

As a competely non-technical owner :oops: - how did you notice it - is it readily apparent?

Brian, I started hearing a clunk from the right rear, almost as if the tyre was badly underinflated. I always park the car in the same place, so the black mark on the ground was a hint. I had the car jacked up and wheel off on Saturday, and the rear wishbone is damp and completely black, although I couldn't see any obvious leak from the damper itself. I'm also starting to wonder if it's been leaking for a while, might explain why the car was bit more oversteery that normal at Kames a couple of weeks ago!

As for being non-technical, well, I'm pretty hopeless, although I did manage to do my front pads on Saturday - bit of an achievement for me!
