Tomorrow is Donnington Track Day organised through the BMW Car Club. Having paid £180 plus £40 for my missus I am (was) very much looking forward to the early start and taking my M3 CSL onto this fabulous track.

Unfortuately at 3.30 this afternoon a rivet gives me a puncture on my front nearside Cup and I do not have a spare set. Kwikfit refuse point blank to mend the tyre, (although I'm not entirely happy to go this route anyway) stating that "the tyre is illegal anyway and it's more than my jobsworth mate..." The clock is ticking and it looks like my day tomorrow is scuppered.

This is a last resort long shot and probably extremely cheeky, but does any kind sole on this board have any suggestions (i'll pay handsomely if it means I can secure a day's tracking).... I'm going to struggle to find a supplier of a cup tyre tomorrow morning, let alone in time to fit and then make the 2-3 hour journey to Donnington.

If you can help or have any suggestions please call me on 07776 204669, (I away from Internet access for the next few hours) I'm willing to travel to wherever tonight if it means I can save my day tomorrow.

Cheers in advance
