Hi guys just a brief note I am the area organiser for the ferrari owners club in this region. I have booked croft for the 6th August for use by the ferrari owners club. There are spaces available for other marques to if anyone wishes to join us. The track can accomodate 15 cars at once , using three sessions meaning we can have a total of 45 cars. If anyone is interested can you let it be known.

ahh bob it be ye olde steering rack cv joint thingy that's buglered - Macdonald racing have had the car for 4 weeks now because Ginetta are fecking useless and just built the G33's with whatever they had lying around at the time seeing as they only built 80odd anyway, and that most people have done a quarter of the 25k miles I have, the chances of anyone else having had this problem are minimal a bespoke part is currently being designed with a view to machining it and registering the patent and selling it back to Ginetta (possible) or to a manufacturer (much more likely) so we'll see. plus the clutch failed on the mini on sunday....don't even get me started on that one

hope you're ok........!

oh SH1T! I haven't, I just forgot! how stupid am I? just remind me please! damn it, been working and a little bit of the "out of sight, out of mind" malaise seems to have afflicted me - i'll get the keys cut at lunchtime and mail them to you - could you mail or text me your address as I'm at work now and haven't got the bit of paper I transferred the details to.

I'm happy to play with the boys (and girls) in red.

Please count me in with one Noble 3R.

Cheers,
Ian.

when you say needing a deposit in the new year, when exactly in the new year? I won't know if I can afford to track the Marlin (or indeed if the Marlin is trackable) until later in the year...

There's a session at York drag strip April May time. My guess is that the Yorkshire region will organise it.

I want to be in Cone's group!! I very nearly overtook one of them last time, wimped out on several opportunities, then he pulled off to the pit lane. I think I've found my level, although the Mini drivers are clearly much better than me.
