I thought so too new safer. The garage did give me the option of just 2 new on the left hand side at £200 per wheel but i feel better with all new all round.

Thanks

sorry to hear about the damaged wheels, why not go for a nice classic turbo, you could do a straight swap almost for yours, when uve fixed your wheels that is.

Great run last night, well done to paul for the route and everyone else for no shenanigans lol.

Sorry i couldn't appreciate the tunnel like you lot but i had a police car sitting right behind me just waiting for an excuse lol (GIT). Oh well.

Its the ring for some of you next, have a good run but remember, dont go to the absolute limit, just think of richard hammond, we DONT want to be visiting anyone in hospital.

Laters fellas

I know how rude fancy selling it before i had a proper look. That is the type of car i would love to have but as i have street parking only stuck to a more basic less desirable to be stolen model to keep insurance down.

does it make that much difference?

it was only about £30 more for me to park on the drive than a garage.

I missed a good run again! Damn work hours sometimes get in the way, but not always. Still, like you point out chief, I'll make it up by doing an extra 2 laps of the ring for you
Big thanks to Paul for organising this run, and too you all for supporting him too. You looked well chuffed in the pub after Paul
Sorry to hear of your misshap Clare, hope you get it sorted out soon.
See you all at the October meet, I'm sure it's going to be a big one

Great little vid - who is in front of you?

It was not so good in the lead as all the sound was behind me. Looking forward to Gilp vid as he was behind with the chief.
