    Well, it's official. My car won't be done in time... So be it.

    Gregs lead time is about 2 months at the mo, & I've been forced the twin-scroll route as the planed/specific GTX spec is no longer in production, so at least 3 more weeks before I get the new choice from uMurca. C'est la vie. It WIIILLL be sorted in time for me to 'write it off' at The Weekender, which is nice.

    SO, - Apart from the gen camaraderie, my main point in going was the track time & general bedding in after the build(
    Lad's, (& Luke) I'm bailing, so my space & & track time will be up for grabs via the authorities.
    Ste, do you have to do the honours ref the stand & track slots, or do I contact (?Overlords name here?) to sort that?

    Have a crack gents, wish you well with the weather. Pictures-Pictures-Pictures.

    Sob.
    Rob.

    Hi guys and gals

    Fancy joining your convoy to Japfest, I'm coming from Coventry direction, so can pick up
    M5 quite easily.

    How many are roughly going from this area??

    Sorely tempted Ste, & especially since I haven't seen Luke since he came to the Fittle a couple of months back, but I've filled the day with work stuff & commitments so it's a no go for me now.

    Hope you all have a Grand Day Out!

    Rob.

    Cheers Matt, head's still up, but if things slip further, meaning I miss more of the summer, I will get depressed...

    I can still remember the jaunt we took in yours those couple of years back now, & I guess I'm going to end up with something approaching your BHP/Torque as was. All I need when finally sorted, is to come across the same XK & driver we 'met' whilst behind the wheel of mine on the same day...

    Ta,
