Yeah whats with that, no fair. MGs and E30s get two days, the category which supports MRA through and through doesn't.....

Good for you Scotty. What brand did you buy? If you're not racing this September I reckon one more visit to check things out should give you all the motivation you'll need.

Dunlops. Should be ok, they are a little 2nd hand, but better than whats on there now.

For someone who generally gets his excercise driving a golf buggy from bunker to bunker on weekends, I have been doing 30-40 min workouts every day since the fosc weekend. There's a diet in place and this weekends plans include stripping a bunch of trims, carpets etc.... I figure if I'm going to loose weight so is the car!

Definitely feeling motivated!!! But if I'm not ready I'll be there to watch!

One day at the track is always better than none. I will lodge my entry today.

That's bad news about the engine problem not being the cheaper fix, Chris. I hate to add to your woes but have been thinking about the clutch master cylinder you replaced at the last MRA. To avoid a future problem with the master cylinder you should give some thought to overhauling or replacing it soon as it will have done the same amount of work as the slave cylinder and the second item often fail after its paired component is replaced. :NC:

Not a huge number of entries in any category. And only one 'super' truck.

Can someone tell me the day the Mx5's are racing. Is it the Saturday or the Sunday. I can't see it on the WP page.

Regars - John

It's Sunday John. I am still hoping they might expand it to a both-day-er for Sat and Sun with so few entries in the categories which are supposed to be on both days....

Mx5 entries are a bit thin on the ground for this one, though I know of a couple more that should be there.

For anyone looking for more track time on the day - Andy and I have double entered, me in the Sports Sedans (with Russell also) as the Super TTs and mx5s will probably be running together.

Gives us double the races on the day - the Sports Sedans never get more than 4 entries (so far only 1 listed) so plenty of room on track for those monsters and us. And Andy is doubling up in the regularity.
