The circle of Dave's was roaring success last year.

Exactly David, I never got your name wrong once. It’s a fool proof system

 

[Clio_fool]

I'll stand with my back to the sun and try to get the back of my neck to match my avatar again

😂😂😂 There ain't gonna be sun this year. Driving rain and biting wind maybe but sun, nah!

Still in the 30s over here, I'll do it before I leave 😂

 

[DaveDreads]

Waterproofs wellies and umbrella are already in the car, I think the on site bar is going to see some business.

 

[Sunglasses_Ron]

@Sunglasses_Ron - assuming there is an entrance barrier/gate, any idea on what time it'll close?

I cant leave until 7pm on Friday night and its a 6 hour drive

You’ll be fine mate

Are you on circuit this year again?

 

[G. Brzęczyszczykiewicz]

Are you on circuit this year again?

If the car actually makes it there. The plan is to spend more time on the circuit than the runoff zones this time 😂

I’d recommend putting some oil in it Polish Dave

Please stay away from my car, I don’t wanna be rear ended 😂😂

I'll have a boot full of the stuff!

Think of it as extra motivation to brake late 🤣

 

[Oggy997]

Are you coming to CSF btw?

That all depends on the blood results of the bloods I had taken last week, only my anti-rejection level is back & that's usually the last thing to be processed - I don't think there'll be any issues, so I should be, but this is the last test before CSF.
Oh and the home oxygen team are coming a few days before, but usually I dictate those meetings, and I plan on getting rid of what I have left

The useless c***s didn't send the rest of my bloods off, the antirejection is damaging my kidneys and I should've been taking less, but nobody knew nor could advise because of this.
Another test on Thursday now, but that's unlikely to stop me coming as its too close.
Could ruin my holiday to kefalonia the week after though 🙄

 

[Clio_fool]

I was at my sisters last weekend and they said they had a tent I could borrow as I was saying I might get a bigger one. So my parents have fetched it down today.

There's another bag of inflatable poles too. It weighs as much as a clio and was too big for thr boot of my dad's scenic never mind the Clio! Would make a good pit garage for a few cars though 😂.

 

[Filters]

Big enough to hide a body in that is @Clio_fool
What're you plotting this time?

 

[Crayola]

Well. Pauls finally done it

RIP Joanne

 

[dangerous dave]

Don’t worry, we have stickers (which name would you like 😂)

We’ve had a reply from Anglesey regarding fire pits and bbqs. Fire pits or any other type of log burner are an absolutely no no.

BBQ’s are fine but cannot be placed directly on the grass or tarmac.

It might sound harsh but this circuit is on a completely different level of professionalism to Blyton.

Just on this mate, we were going to bring a bbq (raised off the ground as per rules). But would a portable pizza oven type thing that sits well away from the ground be covered under bbq's? Just want to make sure there wouldn't be a problem

As long as it doesn’t burn logs it’ll be fine mate.

I'll have you know its Jizzhappy the pitha man

 

[Sash]

Can't see me getting to this, expensive MOT for the work car 🤦

You’re welcome to jump in with me on Saturday morning if someone else can bring you back?

 

[B-shaw557]

FAO anyone coming from the north / near Wolverhampton.

I have a steering wheel / boss etc there that I’ve been waiting to get sent for the past two months and want it sorted before or at CSF … my question is, is there anyone near that area that could pick it up for me and bring it to CSF? .. currently waiting for his address atm. If possible it would be greatly appreciated and there’s a couple beers in it if there’s any help!

I've not read the rest of this thread so if its sorted ignore me
Im in Wolverhamton, can grab this and bring it. Drop me a PM.

Cheers for the reply mate. It’s all been sorted. Thank you 😁😁

I'm bringing some spare pads just in case the OEM Porsche ones wear a bit too thin. 8mm pad material at present so should be fine, but I want to use all the brakes so wear concerns can get to f**k. I'm bringing all I need to swap the pads except a trolley jack and an axle stand.

Hoping someone going might have one available for use should the need arise...? YT credit saying how awesome you are completely FOC in return of course.

bringing half a work shop along with the race car so come find us 👍

Actually did a test run on the car camping setup, in prep for Friday. Got a couple of bits to get, but the awning works well.
(This was just using 2 of the 3 posts for it)

Using some modified suction cups to attach it to the car. Stayed solid in the 15-20mph winds yesterday.

 

[DaveDreads]

Well that's my squat sorted for the weekend, cheers mate.

 

[Touring_Rob]

Anyone else getting stressed after doing nothing to their car until the last minute?

View attachment 1656714

The stress is getting real:

Car as of today... looks oddly identical to car last week.



Why do I need to paint s**t parts before installing onto s**t car... wtf is wrong with me... please send help.

 

[Crayola]

Lets hope you don't need to put an insert into the trailing arms where the shocker bolts up. They're common as f**k to strip 👀

 

[Brigsy]

Dont worry im still working on mine too, kangoo has no front end on currently

Might have been covered before but any static noise testing?

 

[leedsboy]

If anyone feels pressured about little bits on their cars that need doing, this was my car yesterday 🙃

Luckily it now has an engine in thanks to the massive help from @dann2707 and @Chode Lint

Mines gone from the above to this in 2 weeks. Actually runs semi decent now I’ve replaced the lambda too. Alignment tomorrow then taking it too and from work all week to make sure it doesn’t break down and we’re good to go.

Doesn’t scrub up too bad to say it was SORN for over a year, just don’t look too closely at the near side arch 👀

Looking forward to it. Safe journey folks.

I've never seen any noise testing there.

M14 helicoil kit bought last week 👌

Off to panic buy fasteners tomorrow as the R56 needs longer bolts for one of the control arms and my wheel bearing kit came with the wrong bolts 😔
