Pitman 188 Report post Posted February 24, 2014 Boo, Rob, what happened to you actually driving your car this year? I thought this was a new Rob? I think it is the fear of having to contend with the the two of us in my bonkers turbo GT86 that has put him off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neil_turbo 44 Report post Posted February 27, 2014 Fingers crossed i should be along to the test day, and will be competing in the RRG TSS However, it wont be in the '86! So probably time to introduce you all to my other toy... Reliability has always been its problem (having 1 or 2 subtle mods), but hopefully that will be resolved this year, as it's currently sat in the safe hands of Fensport getting prepped for the year, giving Dave a break from working on shiny new cars!

DelayedBRZ 10 Report post Posted March 1, 2014 If anyone gets caught between a rock and a hard place I am located slightly North of RAF Barkston (I live about 1 Mile from RAF Waddington) I've got a Futon, Couch, and a few square meters of floor available. I almost always have a pot of coffee on and a kettle with a box of PG tips are at the ready. I also have just enough off road parking for 3 additional 86/BRZ 's. I am still trying to decide if I want to head down to Barkston or finish getting the house ready for the wife's arrival from the States. It's a very hard decision that can lead to a lot of quite time, if you now what I mean. Feel free to PM or e-mail me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DelayedBRZ 10 Report post Posted March 1, 2014 In addition I've got just enough tooling here at the house that we could possibly disassemble the entire car, I had to sneak a few tool boxes around the wife when the movers packed us up....;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keethos 842 Report post Posted March 1, 2014 LOL, either, I doubt there will be any quiet time, I'm sure you'll be making a racket either way.....but there's plenty of time to sort out the house....you need to get on track! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil_turbo 44 Report post Posted March 2, 2014 Are you going to the pre-season at Barkston Heath Neil ? Alec Hi Alec If the mk1 is finished I will be driving that, if not I will head down to watch in the '86! Should be a good day! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil_turbo 44 Report post Posted March 6, 2014 Change of plan. MK1 has been diagnosed with a cracked block. So will only be to spectate in the 86. Rebuild plans are being formulated, but it won't be ready in time for Barkston practice day, fingers crossed for the first sprint though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keethos 842 Report post Posted March 7, 2014 Best of luck Neil but I still reckon you should just go on track with the 86 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Special K 442 Report post Posted March 7, 2014 Neil - is it your Mk 1 at Fensport? I agree with Keethos... try the GT86.. Spec K Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil_turbo 44 Report post Posted March 7, 2014 Yeah my mk1 is at Fensport I will have to see how things develop - though after 6 years of building I am determined to get the mk1 running right and use that! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
