If I go in the dual control car I'll give you some tuition
A cm of a tyre would be quite some wear, about what Dave Carter did last time at Blyton

All, I have a set of 4 Scooby standard WRX rims 16" (will go over standard 4 pots) for sale and can deliver to the track day. They have matching tyres on all 4 rims are straight and are perfect for the track day... I ran them on my bug eye at the last Blyton blast.
I am looking for £150 for the lot.
Cheers,
Chris

Does that mean putting fuel in the Peugeot as the last time it was used it ran dry and had to be trailered off the blyton track.
Might check to make sure it still runs, has been a wonderful driveway ornament for the last 6 months, hasn't turned it's engine since the last blyton.

Chaps, I have the chance of a trackday thraper for the right royal fee of £bugger.all, but there's a catch (or three)
1 - It has no tax, test, anything, so it'd need trailering to and from Blaston
2 - It has no lights (or windscreen ) but who give a ****!
3 - I need to know if we can get it there / back ASAP in order to secure this 55 bhp monster(osity), so... ANY SUGGESTIONS?

OK guys, heads up! Last week I sourced & bought a car specifically for this track day. The Beast Of Blyton!!! (Not - although it's supposed to have a tad more than 55bhp). It's jointly owned by Myself, Dave(CB) & Our kid so it'll get thra..er.....driven by us initially but could then later on in the day be opened up to the group as the TG 'Hamster Lives' Challenge car with each stig/stigess either buying joint ownership or paying a minimal fee for each session of laps. It's taxed & tested so will be driven to (& possibly back from) the track & if it survives then it'll be promptly sold (or scrapped -but one local scrappy pays £50 minimum even for non runners!!!), so the projected outlay is negligible.
If Sticky's car is a goer (in more ways than one!), then obviously it might not be needed, but we can still find room for another joint owner on the day (Thinking of maybe Al who will be there on the day but not driving) a 1/4 share for as many laps driving as it'll take is available for a non profit/princely sum of £23.01 & 1/4 petrol cost!
Any advice/ideas/comments appreciated.
