Here's a couple of mine from the Sunday at Knockhill. 1. On one wheel going over Duffus 2. One of many cars cutting the chicane during the day. 3. This aero mod wasn't too successful 4. Most BTCC cars were on two wheels at some point. 5. A very happy race winner 6. Oops 7. Classic Touring Car from many years ago 8. 9. 10. 11. 12. For those interested, there are a few more shots of the young ladies here on my FB page: http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.479583765393197.119509.248878411797068&type=1

I got there before 8am, and there was less than 10 cars ahead of me waiting to get in. Could post up some photos if anyone is interested?

Great write-up Scott

Looking forward to seeing you do battle with the two white EVOs at Brands

Excellent write-up Scott - see you at Knockhill

Another option is an SIDC track day like the one we have booked on the 9th June. SIDC members can get 4 hours track time from 9-1 for only £115 and there is free instruction included from a Knockhill instructor as well

Looking very smart. Are you aiming for Doune next month?

Look forward to seeing your car in action again Arch

In my previous Sti, I found that slightly overfilling the gearbox oil helped a lot with the smoothness when cold. My current SpecD gearbox is fine in all gears both hot and cold.

PM box is now emptied a bit Bit late to call tonight, as my kids are in bed asleep. Best way of getting in touch is by email: john@sidc.co.uk. Happy to answer any questions you have John

Some good video footage from the event here:

Looks very nice If it's the RE-070s you have fitted, then you are right that they won't be much use on the winter roads up here, but they are spot on for the summer. I now run with two sets of wheels and tyres for mine, one for December - March and another set for the rest of the year. Get the performance in all weathers

Looks like a superb finish

Last time I got one from a breakers yard. Think it cost me £15+VAT and came with a 3 month warranty.

This was posted as a reply on FB earlier today: "Lets hope 35 year old George Halliday of Ferguson Street, Johnston does get what he deserves! A 25K fine to replace the ambulance is a good start."

Unbelievable

Martin, I sent the email to those who have attended one of our days before, so if this is your first event I won;t have you in my email list. Expect future emails from me for next years events though It is very much looking like the event will go ahead, but we do need another 11 people to break even at the moment. John

I'm glad to say that over the past week, we have had quite a few more bookings, so we are at about 3/4 of our break even point at the moment. Another 10 to 12 people taking part would be fantastic though, so get booking everyone John

We used to have annual trips to the Isle of Man, and indeed we have had a few ROs over there I went on the first trip, and it was one of the best SIDC events I've been on The guy who organised it all even got the Mountain section closed to the public so we could use the whole width of the road on the Sunday morning for a single run up!

Nice car, I've seen it quite a few times, and know the previous owners. It's a very well sorted car and amazingly quick!

I'll be making my way down at some point as well, but likely later in the day to a different hotel. I would be driving a diesel focus, so would embarass the convoy anyway by getting left behind at the slightest incline in the road

Not sure yet Baz, all depends on work (India trip) and some personal circumstances. I'll only know a few days before the event if I'm able to attend or not. I would hope so
