I was just pulling out of Frankly services, i got up to 140 and couldn't catch you so slowed down, then saw you pulling off at J2 (Broms turn offf i think)
Apologises again for this morning mate not being there

was the my turbo smoking on the after run ? all i could see was smoke slowing down i also lost the power steering later on after that
i dd turn off at jct 2 to go to Broms as well planed to change the exhaust but he wasn't there i'll have to do it in the week now
i'm taking of the steering rack and going to get some -6 aeroquips fittings to it and braided hoses to the reseviour these have never been changed and been on the car along time , it just split the hose thats all i might aswell do do it properly
don't worry about this morning mate nothing you could do things like that some times can happen i was running late myself
cheers Marco

Pete
I was with Daz and his mrs when the first shower came ,fook me i was totally wet with in 10 secs
went to to galaxy to dry off a bit , had a bite to eat then went back to the car to get a umbrella and a good job i did because the last shower would of drowned me
thats was unreal
Paul
i think it's only on the after run the seals must be fooked i can't moan it's been trouble free for 5 yrs since garrett re built it

I might change the turbo now and put a bigger one on it don't know yet
my national day track time might be up for sale now , i don't think i well get it sorted before then
once they start smoking thats it , it's not worth doing a track day on it becuse it will exploed mess up everything like I/c cooler/engine /oil cooler not worth the risk
