Nice Marks car is so mint for a track weapon!

Good job, a couple of minor mistakes in spelling, but a good article and photos were a good as usual.

I blame the Ed for bad proof reading!

Nice easy read and a bit of humour too. Nice style to read. Good idea about the Pissrat too. Stripped out with some track suspension that thing will be good fun

if you squint it kinda looks like a passat :laugh:

It's a good read, but don't underestimate how much you need to do to get a car properly and safely prepped for track use. Skimp on stuff and you'll get into trouble.

Camera never lies! You'll have to give us a PM when you next head there and I'll pop along (well if you want me to!)

it must just look good from a distance then :laugh: the doors are starting to look like a teenagers face with all the parking dings and if you catch it in the right light it looks like it was washed with sandpaper :tongue: theres surface rust on the rear q panel which i need to sort and the rear panel has been replaced badly so that needs sorting. im gonna wait for the summer to sort them so i might get a half decent paint finish, then give it a buff to get rid of the swirl marks.
i kinda forgot about you on this trackday, sorry fella. i doubt ill be on track before next year now. your more than welcome to a few pax laps though next time i go

That's very kind! You're a bit far to come up to the prept meets at Brands :((no track action unfortunately)
-
i am a bit. tbh i only go to no rice because its 10 mins from my house!
i remember there were a few prept's last summer that the track was open for the golfs, it would be good if that happened next year as well
-
Think the plans are in motion. Apparently you go up at 3pm and use the track (cant remember how much) then meet in the evening!
-
Nice feature :cool:
-
Cheers :cool: Already got a couple more in the pipeline.

I've written a couple of show reviews fro JV.
