Post by techbod »

Sunday 1st and Monday 2nd May. Who is going?
Two (might have been three at one point) elevens there last year, can we get more together in one place this year?

I'm planning to go. Don't know what day yet and it's dependant on passing the MOT on Friday!

MOT passed. Need a new fuel filter regulator and a peep at the brakes but should be ok for Stoneleigh. What day is everyone planning to go, or are we all waiting to see what the weather does?

No strong preference. I think, as you suggest, we should see what the weather looks like later in the week.

Weather forecast for Sunday is currently given as 'Sunny Intervals', bit windy and up to 17'c. So very much like the last couple of days here have been.

Looking iffy I'm afraid. Did my rear hub bearings today, and found that I had oil soaked brake shoes on the RHS. Replacements ordered but unlikely to arrive before Saturday. However, if there looks to be a good turn out otherwise, I'll clean the shoes and re-assemble as is. After all, I've been racing with them like that for god knows how long. Come to think of it, it did feel a bit squirrely braking for the first hairpin at Rockingham.
Who is going and what day? Always fun wandering around knocking everyone elses cars! And seeing the occasional goodie.

Will probably help the braking balance too since they are normally biased to the rear!

Looks like I'm a no-show yet again chaps, sorry :( I will definately be at the Silverstone Classic on the Sat (I have my tickets), but Stoneleigh is unlikely for me.

Have fun though and do stop by to admire the new Caterham Formula 1 colour scheme.

The weather forecast looks to be the same for both days. I don't have a peference as I am available both days. Does anyone have any strong preferences for either? We really should let Chaz know sooner rather than later since he wants any Eleven for the display.

Megan has decided that she wants to come with me, Kate and James will probably stay at home as Kate doesn't really want to drive over, so does anyone want to meet up and go in convoy? There is a convoy leaving Northampton at some unearthly hour on Sunday morning if anyone is interested in an early start.
