My g/f is having second thoughts, as she can't go out on track unless she can borrow an open face helmet
Not willing to fork out

Their helmets are not open face and she's claustraphobic.

PJL - the car sounds awesome. I'm sure you'll have a queue of people wanting a passenger ride on Sunday.

My plan too - quite a few gf's coming along to this one.

My mate Chris' gf is coming along - good job really - it's her car
Watch out though, it's quite annoying when you let her have a go and she's instantly as good as you were after about 8 track days



Just heard that the new starter motor was the wrong one but my brother reckons he's fixed the problem anyway.

If anyone walking about the paddock hears a little red caterham going 'click click click' and not moving, give 'us a push

Is there anything in the surrounding area that she could do all day. Any towns shopping areas nearby that are worthwhile visiting?
Rockingham is actually in Corby, don't send her there.

Oakham, upingham and stamford are all nice to go and have a look round. More from the picturesque perspective than shopping though.

Hi Guys
Steven - of course I could allways empty the Washer Bottle - but its not the ethos that I prescibe to in my efforts to seek further efficiencies

Re the CF Propshaft - still awaiting a reply from my Contact


Re the Rear Wing - who knows what differance / if any it will make - but I fealt that esthetically it needed one to bring on that hard-core Race-car 'look' !!

As ever - allways willing to take people for a few Laps on Track - Cheers - Peter

She might just hang around. And Cambridge isn't that far away. But once she's at the track, she's staying. I'm not wasting track time. Unless it's standing water city.

How bad do you need them? Grab some OEMs from your nearest dealer, they'll get you through the day.

I think the spoiler definitely needs a skull and crossbones sticker on the back to set it off "just so"

That is if you can justify the extra weight
