  1. Mines just over 36k and still on its first clutch seems to be holding strong at the moment. When it is time to change it, I'll probably uprate the flywheel while I'm at it.
  2. Nice work on this one . I'm looking forward to it, hopefully it will be bigger than 2010 as I heard it was a bit of a dud at Rockingham last year.
  3. In my spare time I am learning to build acoustic guitars. A tool I use is something called a Safe-T-planer Whifh is effectively a drill bit with a flat planer on the bottom than you attach to a pillar drill. It is used to thickness wood down to a very specific thickness and is supposed to be safe... Well. As I was passing some spruce through it kicked and my left pinky got sucked in mangling it in the process. I live within walking distance of a hospital so over I went and stitches and glue later with some painkillers later I got home. It's ber. Over a year since I did it and you can never tell it happened but it sill hurts lol. What made me really mad was ruining a £30 piece of spruce! My dad ran his own building company so naturally did up the house. In some 30 years he's only had minor nicks and cuts but has some pretty bad luck on ladders. I can remember 3 falls, 2 broken legs and one broken arm .
  4. Can you wait until the 1st (payday) if do I will take these off your hands right away! I assume these work with any wheels including the Rays.
  5. I have to agree with you. I have never been much of a fan of Hamilton's attitude. I don't think Button intended to run Hamilton off like that. When you can barely see in front of you, I doubt mirrors the size they have are particularly useful.
  6. Wear 10 days worth of clothes when you set off and day by day throw the outer layer in the bin .
  7. The race shouldn't have started the way it did. The problem with the safety car coming out all the time is drivers are taking the risk of putting on intermediate tyres and then being stopped by the safety car, potentially ruining their race. At least it's a red flag so they may have time to finish the whole race.
  8. Shappi Khorsandi is very funny. I'm also a fan of Jo Brand as she is so crass. I also have seen Sarah Millican at Jongleurs before and she was pretty good. Generally though, I must say I'm not a huge fan of female comediennes.
  9. I'm tempted to put some on too. I'll probably go 20 front and back.
  10. I think you're better off buying a standard car which is mechanically sound and then kitting it up than buying a potential dog and having to fork out to get it fixed.
  11. Last time I went it was £28 per person. However, they used to (may still do?) hide a link on their webpage which gave you 50% off on admission, so it cost me £14. It's a good day out though if it is your sort of thing.
  12. Anyone going from the London/Watford area? Long 2 hour drive
  13. Another +1 on a BMW 1 series. A friend just got a 120d and it is great. 35mpg and looks good too. For a 10k budget you can get a great car.
  14. Wow I loved that. I just read every one of them and at one point spat half a chocolate bar out of my mouth through laughter.
  15. VED is going up anyway ad the chancellor said it will ho up by inflation increases.
  16. Mark me up as paid please (hopefully you should have received it at about midnight). I was thinking, where do you plan to meet beforehand to dish out tickets etc? There is a Premier Inn about 2 miles away DE74 2TQ seems to have enough parking even if we have to block each other in. At least that way we can drive in as a group also, albeit a 3 minute drive .
  17. PM Marzman directly he will sort you out. Nzr350z - I believe you can arrive at any time (you could at Japfest). It just means you may get stuck in a queue of cars coming in (however by lunchtime you should be okay). You will have to organise meeting someone for a standpass though as they wont let you in without it.
  18. Not a bad turnout for such late notice for some people. I hope we can get a few more. Nice on .
  19. Is that on the higher road tax bracket (£435) or the lower one?
  20. Nice one. When do we sort out payment?
  21. How many you got on the stand total? And is it too late to get my name down? If I came I'd like a stand pass if it isn't too late.
  22. Nope. I wondered the same thing when I went to my first show in May. It's just a way of the event putting makes/models together for the public and club members to meet up and hang out. I've updated the below to show me attending: 1. Jak + 1 2. Tarmac 3. Marzman 4. carlton x (hopefully) 5. Garetgax 6. Veilside z + 1 7. Lee@MK (Pending getting car finished) 8. Mrt 9. Simonzed 10. Peter10 1 Ticket + stand pass 11. CMCK13 12. George Dredd 13. Rothers2901 14. dobby + tracktime? 15. Jameswinkless +1
