Just had a three word text message from Matthew (Trumpcards):
"At the Ring!"
Lucky git! He'll be spending the next two days getting proper tuition around the Ring with Ron, the Alfa looney. Lets hope he learns well!
PS CORNER!!!!
How about Kleine Karussel? That bump at the 3/4 point that makes you wonder if it'll kick the arse out completely hehehe

Clakcett Lane around midnight is the plan. And yes I'm on the ferry too.
Meeting Dave as posted above.
Clackett Lane services is 60 miles from Dover so about 45-60 mins drive.
Don't know if it's worth meeting earlier?

Thursday is shaping up to be an insane day, as I might have to leave home at 6.30 to start a new job in Bristol in the morning. And with the ferry through the night I'm going to be beyond knackered on Friday.

Yes, thats the guy.
i have very mixed feeling about him TBH. I don't think he set anything like a good example by forcing me off line and making me swerve to avoid him as he barged his way past me. And I ain't exactly slow and doddering my way around the track.
I sincerely hope that when he's being paid for tuition, he is attempting to create good Ringers, not making people with similar lack of respect for other drivers.
As for the car, I think he's replaced everything that could be replaced. So it might well survive. Might.

Kobe - yes, it was the craaazy dutch bloke that got his mechanics to look at my S when it was having that vibration problem. He's a bit of a legend and was talking about how the S's suspension was too soft - he's clearly a hard core nutter (well he is dutch).
That will be amazing for Trumpcards, we'll have to get him to teach us the lines - pointing it out on a video.
I cannot wait!!!!!!!!!!!
And my brakes arrived today at my flat (my fiancee told me) how's that for service, I only ordered them yesterday from afar - well done Mike at camskill.co.uk, decent price as well. So I'm very chuffed. I being my journey home to the UK tomorrow evening and will be back for Thursday night. Did I mention I cannot wait.

his mates were actually quite friendly guys..but I have already fixed the Honda's "soft" suspension.. and just been underneath the car this evening to put it on the full rock hard settings..
hope my computer and camera survive the E40
Thought so.
