I usually go, but won't have car ready for some time.
To anyone who has not been before, it is a pretty good show and the on track action is usually interesting to watch.

Why be sensible? It is normally only conforming to the dull middle classed outlook on life! We all own Eagle kit cars for gods sake! Sing, sing, sing with me,
I never wanted to be a weatherman anyway, I wanted to be a, a, a Lumberjack! Leaping from tree to tree as they float down the rivers of british columbia. The redwood, the larch the mighty scots pine, Oh, I'm alumberjack and I'm ok, I sllep all night and I work all day!

Am I on the right chat site here? It looks familiar but there is a rather worrying tone to some of the posts. Have you all been sitting out in the sun? Oh and has anybody seen Woger or Wichard? ;D

Buy a tent dear boy. Blow up mattress (or similar!). Electric pump. Case of beer. Bottles of Red. Instant barbecues. Stuff all in boot and behind seats. Enjoy. (I presume there is camping there?) Chaz.

P.S. If you had seen some of the threads on the old site you would think this one is unnaturally well controlled and boringly sane!

I'm about to remove the body and change the axle, maybe tank, prop, 4 pot front calipers, springs, etc, depending on how the Sierra bits fit! I have no idea how long this will take, or the cost, so I cannot commit to Donnington. Chaz.

I very much like the spurts of lunacy on our site, when you go onto other bulletin boards, especially one make ones it is soooo boring, Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Long may we continue! ;D . Now, about this unnaturally controlled bit, how did you know

I wish I could leave it mate, but a dented wheel flange and oil leak onto the rear brake back plate makes driving over 60 mph impossible. Several people have told me they can see my off-side rear wheel wobble when they follow me! I yearn for the sophisticated blend of comfort and road holding, the added visual kudos of rear discs, not to mention a bit of extra weight at the rear (the car that is), that the Sierra suspension will give me. There, I think I've nearly convinced myself (again). Seriously it's bl**dy frustrating being limited to a highly vibratory 55+. Chaz.

Peter, peter, peter, I dispair of you sometimes! Don't even recognise the basic Monty Python Life of Brian quote! ;D How are you going to cope out there in the Civ Div withou these key life skills? ;D Now if I were to add "Welease Woger the Wapist" or "I have a good friend in Wome called Biggus Dickus, he has a wife you know, Incontinentia, Incontinentia Buttocks" cue wild sniggering from Roman Centurian etc, etc Thats without refernece to the Holy Grail or even more advanced the Blacadder series's! "What I still can't understand, Baldrick, is how you got so much custurd out of one small cat!"
