Strathaven, so not far, if you're interested, there's a SIDC trackday 24th nov coming up, even if there aren't any spaces there's always loads to see, and rides to scrounge. Tim

You guys thought about joining East Ayrshire Car Club? The operate Kames circuit at Muirkirk, and regularly run club track days for their members. Check out www.eastayrshirecc.co.uk.

Didn't realise you guys were so close - I use the back road from Muirkirk to Strathaven as part of my Sun' morning runs smile

I would look at the club however...

Oops! My mistake. Kames is a great wee track, and is the only one in Scotland owned and operated by a car club. They are a great crowd down there, so get involved if you can.

The GTR is apparently sorted, and as long as it doesn't self destruct at the next Vmax, it should be at KH, weather permitting.

Hello and welcome!

Are you on the www.mtorque.co.uk forum too?

It's not that bad on the road, just the fuelling to sort really, now that the oil/breather system seems to be under control. Also hope to get it set up and dynoed properly over the winter, if successful I'll be in touch about how to post video of that, and of course around KH if you're still game.

The other black GTR has a top of the range 720hp engine in it so should be faster than mine or Carlo's, but possibly driver skill is more important when there's corners involved [that'll be me at the back then].
