Hi David

Myself and AlI are going over on Saturday via Newcastle, booked in to the NH at Zandvoort, and then to the Pits at Zolder. Coming back to Hull.
Have you changed your exhaust for Zolder?

See you there.

Dave,
Those on Sat crossing are all staying at NH Zandvoort Sunday night and we're pretty much all in De Pits Zolder for Monday.

If you want I could add you to my booking for the Newcastle-Amsterdam crossing as just Stu and I in a 4 berth, sea view, with romantic a la carte dinner option (if so pm me with full name, dob and car reg.). We're also on the Rotterdam-Hull ferry but you'd need to book that fully yourself.

Cheers,
Ali

My exhaust was cracked & leaking at the bottom of the manifold. I've had it all welded & it's a lot quieter.
Last year at Oulton, the static test was 99. Recently it was 105......
a lot quieter now

Is your exhaust a single exit?
I have an insert that will quieten it down, bought it for the 211 before I changed the system. I can bring it with me and see if it fits?, or if you tell me the inside diameter of the pipe, I can let you know if it will fit.

That's you sorted on the Newcastle ferry now David sharing with Stu and I.

Think I'm the gooseberry with all this chat of Stu's 'insert' fitting your big oval and 6 inchers... ;)

Is this fully booked?
Just to check in case this is a possibility for me you guys are doing the following:-
Geordie express sat 9th
NH Zandvoort Sun 10th
De Pits Mon 11th
P&O Rotterdam-Hull Tues 12th

Is that correct?
If anyone up for sharing cabin/hotel room let me know...just in case :wink:

Exploring some options Steve :wink: . Popped up to the rev Limits track night the other night and it gave me the kick in the arse I needed to get my finger out, really missing the track days and social scene as well as the car aspect..

I have twin rooms booked at both the NH and De Pits, quite happy to share and split the cost if that helps.
If you need to go even faster, just imagine you are me.
