I've just booked a slot for the Keevil Track Day on Monday 22nd August. Should be a laugh. Anyone else thinking of coming along ?<br>

Looking forward to Monday and getting a bit of track time in!<br>

I've put the std. Sprint airbox back on and I'm just doing a mod ala Jon Jackson but with 3" dia. not 4" flexi. Bro-in-law'ish is going to put it on the crypton tuner for me at the weekend.<br>

Once again people dont know what they missed!<br>
<br>
Despite being a tad damp in the morning I was surprised how grippy the track was.<br>
<br>
Big thanks for letting me have a play in you car Mart - I had forgotten how much fun a tuned Dolly is to drive fast and near the limit (which I found a few times!) I'll return the favour when (if?!) mine is ready next season.<br>
<br>
Hope you managed to blag a ride with Rich to see how it compares with Dans Mildy tuned 318<!--EZCODE EMOTICON START ;) --><img src=

Did your fan belt stay on? <br>

That was great. I still have a grin on my face this morning. After you'd gone I put on my other wheels & had some sideways fun, Dan was well impressed with the Sprint. Was pulling away from Mark's mini all the time. Didn't have time to go round with Rich unfortunately.<br>
<br>
Fan belt came off once more but not until I'd done a couple more sessions. Had to take it steadier than usual on the way home as I don't think there are any front brake pads left, nice metal to metal noise from the front <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :eek --><img src=

Sounds like you had fun Martin. I'm hoping to get out and play soon. Who would have thought that you would have more track time than me this year!!!<br>
