Its the second race meet at york this year and seen as this is local to me i thought i would see if any one else would like a ride out.
A link to their site is HERE (http://www.york-raceway.co.uk/homepage.html)
Directions and prices can be found HERE (http://www.york-raceway.co.uk/aboutus.html)
PLEASE DONT USE SAT NAV IT WILL NOT GET YOU THERE.
If anyone would like we can have a convoy in from the york side and I\'m sure i can convince someone to lead one from the M62 side.
The access road is .... but the track was OK last time I ran there no to the same standard as pod but OK.
I am sure we will see the regulars there but if anyone else Fancy\'s coming down pop over and say hi, I would advise you put your car through scrutineering and park with the race traffic even if you don\'t plan on running so your car isn\'t in the main car park (and that way we keep all the rotarys together).
so to the list of names,
1. arrouk Matt
2. kev-yorks????? you had better be going Kev
3. Stevegarbett I will drag you there if you ain\'t car full Steve \'no show\'
4.
Yup count me in even if its just for scrutineering :D

Got the MOT done today its going to be close but i may just about be up and running for sunday/monday. Weather and AET dependant for getting a reasonable base map on the ECU prior to the weekend.
It doesn\'t need to run on boost to be the fastest !!!
I\'m looking at coming as well. Did you say you fancied doing the weekend ???
Shaun

You up for camping and a few beers overnight Matt if the weathers good?
hmmmmm, an excuse to get plastered with 2 days of racing..........................
I\'m gonna try and make this but only for the day. Not sure which day yet though. Any ideas on which day will be the quietest?
So it is this weekend then ??
Shaun
I think I\'m not going to be coming. FB still in bits and can\'t risk the FD !
Weather report is terrible too !
Shaun
Scared of an ass whoopin again Shaun aye!
well at the moment i have a major gear box issue but i hope to have that sorted tomorrow morning. other than that im sorted and ready for this weekend.
matt
which day is it going to be guys
Depending on the weather, I\'ll be there on Sunday. Don\'t know about everyone else.
Not worried at all !! but need to keep the FD in one piece. Bearings came today and they are the wrong size !!!!
Shaun
Any chance one of you more local guys can give us a weather report first thing in the morning? I don\'t fancy a trip over just to be rained off.

About 20 mins away and will do. We\'ve just got Matts car sorted so he should be running Sunday and maybe Monday if his diff holds together.

matt
Cheers guys. We\'ll be setting off early ish though 7-7:30 ish so sooner the better for the weather report (If your up).
drop me a txt before you set off mate (07919893113) if i am awake ill let ya know.
matt
sound. Thanks
i have already txt tiddles, its sunny and nice here.
matt
Clear sky and sunshine so looking good.
Hope you guys had a good day. Weather report is terrible for tomorrow now !
Shaun
No interruptions today with the weather a mix of sunshine and cloud, looking iffy for Monday though.
Matt got plenty of tuning/logging runs in until boiling his clutch fluid put a early end to proceedings.
Dam it. I knew as soon as I decided not to come the weather would be ok for it. Always the way! Glad you lot had a good one.
and \'no show steve\' keeps his name.
matt
I bet he didn\'t even ring :Giggle
Did kev get any runs in ???
Shaun
Kev\'s been a muppet and bust his foot.............struggling to walk on it so no way i was going to attempt running today. New Ecu\'s on the car and running just needs 2 or 3 hrs work to tweek a few things once i\'m driving it.
ouch..... so what times did you put down then matt??
any one get any pictures??

matt
Sorry cant turn work down :)
nothing worth talking about tbh karl, but i had fun and got some good logs of what was happening, its still verry rich over 6k rpm.
matt
Does Kev need a driver for tuning ???? (Yeh I wish)
Shaun
I went but didnt run due to the weather, Only 4wd and fwd were allowed till about 1pm and after that the run was blocked up with american muscle and hammond\'s friend, julian webbs jet car.
All in all a good day if a little chilly and still plenty of times in the 11\'s which on the day was great.
Spotted another fd on the day but didnt catch the owner, Was a silver standard looking model but nice and clean.
