Two of us are booked up to go on the last bank holiday weekend in May, Like everyone else I'm waiting to see what the new pricing structure is all about but I played it safe and bought a 25 lap ring card. Reading between the lines it sounds like weekends and bank holiday sessions are going to get more expensive as a result . Stay safe and have a good trip

Clean the earth connection on the rear diff if you've not already done it, 2 mins of a job

Already done that, sometimes getting a squeel from the box as I am pulling away at same time dccd light starts flashing, when diff is working and I put it to lock it doesn't skip and bang as violently as it used to. It's giving me error code 21 which is center differential.
Getting diff pulled out and inspected shortly and hope the KAPS replacement friction plates will do the trick.

From what I have found after a bit of digging they are prone to overheating when the car looses traction and mine spins the wheels up quite easily. If I am being a bit enthusiastic with the loud pedal it will break traction in 4th in the wet and 2nd in the dry.

Just crossing my fingers that it is a simple fix or I had better start looking for a 2nd job to be able to replace it!!!!

It's always a good idea to go to the ring!! prepare your car and I'm sure you will enjoy it, there's a few of us going in scoobys so we are easy to find always happy to give passenger laps :-)

Don't forget to pack plenty of spare pairs of trousers this year and keep the go pro's charged.

Have fun guys and keep them out of the barriers!

I'm planning a trip for the May bank hol weekend too, although I'm not sure if I'm taking the scoob or pork yet. Hopefully the pork if I get it sorted in time, either way I'll look out for a bunch of Impreza's.

Hoping to get a couple of trips in this year, I do love the place! Just take it easy and have fun :-)
