  1. If you have any left id love to take a set
  2. Saw your video last night Rob but didn't clock it as you. It makes your car look very oorange. GOOD skills sir, and great to share a garage with you hope to see you on some more next year. Fingers crossed for a dry day next week for my last track outing of the year at Bedford as I've had a 100% wet record this year. First outing for my new lsd too. Impressions. Much louder on the road a lot more transmission noise On the track, really liked it. More predictable, less snappy. Even though the wet isn't my favourite I quite enjoyed the day and trying out the different lines. Thanks again Simon for organising it. Doug
  3. Hi Robert yes no problem, it's will sit happily in the garage for a bit longer. ill drop you pm with my contact details cheers Doug
  4. This is a rack that fits to your anti roll bar and allows you to strap things like tyres or a suitcase to your car. it will take up to 4 wheels, but please check the width to make sure it works for your width of tyres. internal width 960mm internal depth 430mm £30 collection from Canterbury
  5. Ive just spoken to Footman James to add Hethel and they told me they have abolished the 48 hour notice period. you can now call the day before or even on the day. That makes a refreshing change.
  6. A big thanks to Dave, James, Simon and anyone else involved in organising yesterdays Oulton Park day. It was well worth the 540 mile round trip (no trailers here) Great evening the night before too. I took lots of footage, so if you arent on this one and want to see yourself let me know and ill upload some more. This one is from the penultimate session. ​next one is Hethel for me, hope to see lots of familiar faces there. Doug
  7. one to tick off the bucket list. Booked it a couple of years ago with Magnatude events, but then the day was called off. Lotus apparently canceling all track days?????? hmmmm did get a refund mind you. Anyhow, importantly booked now.
  8. Looks like a great selection of tracks, especially the double header. is there any reason Anglesey is at the rainy end of the year. As someone who drives to all the tracks, the chances of a washout or even damp is significant which is enough to put me off booking with the club and searching out a summer session. I've had more than my fair share of wet Mountain biking weekends in Wales, when the rest of the country is dry, to make an 8 hr drive with possible rain a real downer. Would love to see it in June, July or August but appreciate I'm probably one of a few people who might book coming from Kent.
  9. Just to add my thanks to James and Dave for organising this little lot, some great tracks and i know how much effort this stuff takes so hats off to you both. i didnt think id enjoy Silverstone as much as i did, but im itching to go back, so that gets my vote for next year. Oulton park was awesome too, and the 300 odd miles to get there made it a very memorable road trip. looking forward to seeing whats on next years list. thanks Doug
  10. have you managed to test the mirrors yet, id be interested to hear how you got on with them. Also the brackets look great, where did you get them from? thanks Doug
  11. thanks Simon, makes sense. should have tried to get the oem ones in the first place. live and learn.
  12. im in the process of fitting a carbon aero i picked up from ebay, and am using the rataining channels from kitcar direct. id imagined these were caterham parts but when they arrived it was clear they weren't. They had the look of made in the garage about them. anyhow i figured as long as the do the job, no one will ever see them. I got them in, although undoing the chassis bolts was a mission. Not enough clearance to get a socket set in there. Once in place i noticed the holes in the bracket were about 3mm too high on both sides. I could file out the holes but this would mean when i put the screen back there will be a gap under it. I also offered up the aero, and it had a pair of existing mounting holes. these lined up perfectly with the holes in the scuttle but not the retaining brackets. Does anyone have a pair of Caterham ones they could measure the height of the holes from the bottom of the bracket. I clearly looks like the brackets are wrong, but id like to be sure. The centre of the holes on the ones i have are 36mm from the bottom of the bracket. thanks
  13. Firstly a massive thanks to Dave and James for organising the day. Dave i hope you get the engine sorted without making too big a hole in your pocket, i really felt for you, and having to leave early, such an arse. Also to the couple in their red clamshell 7 who had gearbox issues, i hope you got back ok. But wow what a cracking track, id watched some video before booking and made up my mind that i had to try it, but driving it was awesome. I opted for some instruction which was great, although the intercom packed up and i pushed on a bit too hard too soon, at Cascades resulting in a half decent spin. I think i might have collected the apex cone in the process, sorry chaps. Ive uploaded some video from the last session, and the driving standard for the whole day was impeccable with a really friendly atmosphere on and off the track and the night before gathering too.
  14. for anyone who missed out on these kitcar direct sell them brand new delivered for 1p cheaper http://www.kitcardirect.co.uk/caterham-s3-easy-swap-retaining-channel.html just ordered mine
