Ive been to sprints there, is ok venue. the sprint track is narrow but smooth but i guess you'll be using the more open airfield side of things

Yes, needs oil, but i have 2 litres of silkolene stuff right next to me. I think a piece of copper has snapped of which goes to the oil cooler, but you can swap it out from your standard lsd.

how much of a pain in the arse would it be to swap?
And how much do you want for it?

Had another great day at Barkston Heath. Nice to meet Chris (red S14) two guys in the blue M3 sorry never got your names, and the two guys with the brand new awesome little Sylva Riot on it's maiden test run.

I was a little dissapointed in my performance this time tbh, I seemed to struggle with understeer in the morning. Once i'd got the 9" off the back and put the 8" on it seemed to come together for the first section but still couldn't help spinning on the section heading back towards the start line... oh well, still had a great day just don't think i learnt as much as before. Practice makes perfect i guess

Only managed to get about half an hours onboard footage before the battery ran out. GRRRR! Well at least i know the camera mount works, just have to push hard on the suction cup.

Fab Day.
RCAs for the win.

MAde mucho progress, linked the back turns, AND managed to link the last S sections towards the start line.
Even pulled some 3rd gear action when the tires started to fade by the end of the day.

50-60mph entries for the win also

was an awesome day. shame i shredded tyres so quick.

smokescreens for the win!!
ae86 was fooking loverly, M3 was awesome and the driving was all real good. loved the back corners after the slalom (apart from the tyre wall ) only managed to get the s bend right and drift all the corners 2 or 3 times but the smoke on that last corner was awesome
