Folks,

Home alone next week so was thinking about a mini meet. Apres work - 2 meeting places and 3 timings.

Rykas Café car park at Box Hill [BH] from 530pm Tuesday 4th April

Head to Newlands Corner [NC] car park eta 615pm ish

Loop back to Rykas for about 7pm-715pm.


If you care to join add your name below cw "BH" or "NC" as the meeting point you will go to.

Newlands Corner is more accommodating...
Translation: better for donuts!

Good to see/meet you guys!
Blowsy - thank you for the (albeit too brief) drive in yr M140i JB4 map 2. With TC/DTC on, slight lag/stutter is more noticeable and car/ZF8spd/JB4 definitely more harmonious with TC fully off.

TC off, JB4 afterburners on - you need to be Ironballs McGinty and or have a large expanse of real estate either side of you to exploit to the full !!!

FYI - just as well you didn't drive my car last night, as its in to the dealer for a slight clonk/rattle from OSF. They have just called to tell me it needs a new steering rack !!! Parts order so hopefully I get it back on Friday.....Fit for the next time we meet. BP

My rocker cover gasket was leaking, dropped it off this morning and pick it up tomorrow. All ready for the next run!

You're very welcome mate, any time.

I agree re: TC, butnin very reluctant to do too much in the way of aggressive public road driving with TC fully off; I'll save it for the track, I think.

Sorry to hear about the steering rack, hopefully not too expensive!

Glad it wasn't anything serious bud. I've got a cracking video of you lying face down on the tarmac, will post the full edit soon
