Cheers Paul ...should be a cracking day out.

Had to decline the Aston test track event as ill have the g/f and our 2 young  children there on the day...over 16's only which I totally understand.

Does anyone know if there is access to water on the site to clean our cars when we arrive?...and i dont mean 500ML bottles from the on site caterers!

Paddy,

When I bought my ticket my stand pass came with it as well, so you should get yours when your ticket arrives as they will ask you if you're displaying your car

Well considering i have just asked her to marry me she may be a bit pissed if i did that, but thanks for the offer

PS she said yes.

When do we find out who is displaying their cars then??? So i know if i need a special pass thing.

Cheers

Thats good to hear Paul,

I suppose the M5 wasn't ready for when we had our combined EA meet at Snetterton for the BMW kumho championship. We had an avus blue e34 M5 3.8 there which was de-badged which looked rather nice and there were still free tickets left over.

Got my ticket and stand pass for Gaydon today. John you have pm, just joined the 5 series register and got my coupe register sticker to go on the rear window. John, you have pm

Paul,

You finished sorting out the bodywork as she's lookin' good mate

Paul



yep-bodyworks all good now (except for a bit of lacquer peel on one door).

I am having the rear wheels refurbed on Monday as I drove over a pothole a couple of days ago & it looks like someone has taken a bite out of the wheel & the other one has a few scratches.

It has a couple of probs-steering fluid/rear suspension resorvoir is leaking where I let some t**t who obviously didnt have a clue what he was doing do a bit of work & He put red liquid in instead of green & if you mix the 2 it doesnt do the seals any good.

I have had an idling prob since I got it which has had a few symptoms-I have replaced the throttle switch,air filter,cleaned out all 6 butterflies & the tubes between the air box as well as replacing the rubber covers,will do the throttle cable this w-end.

Basically sometimes it alternates between 750 & 1250 rpm without touching the throttle but if you pop the bonnet & adjust the throttle cable slightly (increasing rpm) it goes away & also it takes a while dropping down rpm & Sometimes sticks when you take your foot of the throttle-if it is sticking & you just put gentle pressure on the throttle under the bonnet in the downwards direction it sorts itself out so I am guessing its the cable or maybe the return spring on the throttle is a bit weak.

still its all good fun & I love having the ability to destroy many cars which dont expect it !
