It was a great day....I had a couple of problems though
lost a nyloc nut off my top ball joint - that nearly stopped my fun - despite us asking round we couldn't find one (odd thread on it - UNC?)
so what next?? - off to Mango's house to nick one off his kit!! - what a star!
next thing was the car was down on power...it wasn't scaring me anymore and most cars were passing me...
that was eventually traced to the throttle cable having slipped - I was only getting half throttle
so..back on track thanks to team locost - just to do 2 laps then spin it coming out of the hairpin...missed the porsche that was near me
though
so thanks fella's for all your help and good to meet you all.

What a meet. We had a camera in car that mac killed on the first lap! We think the G forces were just to much for it. My neck is sore from the
outing after the rumble strip trips.
Colin.. your cars a cracker. Good results on the shake down and glad to hear it was worth the wee excusion to MGW HQ to get the bits.
Thanks to Zilspeed , Phoenix, Athoirs, Seabass, Macspeedy senior, Colibriman and Macspeedy for making the last outing of the year a real blast. Enjoy
the pix lads.
Someone suggested a BBQ next season...................Suggested dates please... The mango BBQ is waiting ..........
