derek_robertson Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 Practice sessions start around 10am,timed sprints should start around 1pm. I'll be there @1pm...............ish See ya, Del
derek_robertson Posted April 23, 2005 Posted April 23, 2005 << Just a wee thought. It's to late for this weekend, but maybe when the place is open for the weekend later in the year, SIDC could have a wee meet/camping/BBQ affair, watch the action during the day, get rat ersed by night, plenty of time to get home on the Sunday. I'm sure EACC would not object, for a very small hiring/entry fee, an area could be sectioned off for it. The GTi club and Saxo club come every year and fill the place, they have a great time. Advantages, Plenty of parking/camping space Motorsports to watch Food facilities on site (though limited this weekend) Run a concourse ? 9 hole golf course next door if you want to chill. Pub with function suit 100 yards away/ pub crawl can be arranged Very cheap accomodation 100 yards away if you have a tent phobia If SIDC PL insurance is in order, a track evening (Pre the drinking session) any thoughts anyone ? Del, one for you ? Ayrshire big one ? >> Sounds like a good idea John Del

derek_robertson Posted April 26, 2005 Posted April 26, 2005 Hi Peeps Enjoyed my afternoon at Kames once again,good old Ayrshire weather & banter made for a fine days racing. Met a few new faces & some old regulars.......you know who you are 4 scoobs on track,double the amount I saw last season,which all performed quite spectaculary Shame John St. didn't manage to complete his second run,the car ended up with only 3rd gear available which made the car look pretty hairy in the braking department Wish I'd taken my camera,could've,should've would've got some nice piccies. TUT was there with his lotus,giving it full metal jacket as per usual(for metal please read mental) See ya at the next one, Del
JohnSt Posted April 26, 2005 Author Posted April 26, 2005 Hello, gearbox out and stripped, nothing to serious, 5th gear selector broken, jamming car in 3rd. Thankfully this is a nice cheap Subaru bit and not a nice expensive PPG bit. I was royally pissed off on the day, as after second practise time, things were looking V good for championship points, and I'd already leathered the class record (which only counts in the competition runs). Pretty sure that the engine mounts are the root cause of the issue so will be solid mounting the engine in the car to try to resolve future issues. May 14-15th is the next one if anyones interested in coming along. ---john---
