Good excuse for stretching your legs and nicking other peoples cd's though!
I liked that on the 1st trip...i remember Dingy saying his car doesn't use oil on the track but for some reason it does on a long journey. I was happy we kept stopping as i had the knackered old engine in mine

Still need to fit my SECS monitor and fit my fog lights back on which will hopefully do this wkend then she is all set ready for the ring
The guards at the Naval base my dad was docked at say mines "juicy"
I was well confused Is it a southern thing

Think mine, Oli's S1 and Dingo's MKII were most frequent at the pumps cos of smaller tanks and thirstyness lol Dingy's doesn't even have a proper fuel guage, he has to keep looking at the level in the boot
Good excuse for stretching your legs and nicking other peoples cd's though!

Look forward to seeing her there
Pmsl yeh i guess it must be a southern thing hun I will let the car off as it was its first full tank since being set up but it only did 90 miles so Juicy was the only word i could think of

Update after Germany

Well the good news is she made it there and back

Bad news is had a few issues got off the ferry at Dunkerque and 40km down the road the turbo decided to spit its dummy out and i lost all the bolts and spacers quickly pulled over and was amazed when we opened the bonnet certainly did not expect that to happen

Huge thanks to eveyone who stopped with me and massive thanks to Sib for towing me to the services

Once got to the services managed to find some bolts and washers off of Phil who even had a hack saw so we could cut some down

Top work by Simon and Lennie for getting dirty and fitting the new bolts for me you guys are stars only managed to get 4 out of the 5 back in but they did the job even tho the rest of the journey the slightest noise was making me paranoid

After that had an awesome wkend she goes well round the ring even tho i didnt go mad still managed 130 on the end straight

Got back yesterday and got a small leak of gearbox oil but think it just the seal between the drive shaft will check that out this wk if pos

So other than that the girl done good
