[Remember folks, no firm commitment at this stage, just need to get an idea of numbers who want to drive, and those who just want to come along to chat, spectate, take some passenger rides, etc.]

To add/remove/amend your details, quote this post, remove all the quotemarks and any unnecessary text. Add your name to the list, state driving or spectating, add which tracks, "simples" (Meerkat voice.....) - thx

And football, the passion shows.

Do you worry about a lack of downforce in fast corners ?

Even with the diffuser on mine I\'m still not confident it has the same levels of grip in it\'s bare ass state, although that could be down to a thousand things.

Japshow then, 21st June, I shall waive your choice of football club sir and happily give out some noise results for those that are interested. :-)

I\'m out in the Benelux until 12th, do you fancy a weeknight, Saturday or Sunday ? I don\'t think I can make a Sat or Sun in June, 21st is Japshow at the Pod.
dB tester is a cheapo Maplins jobby that has an acuracy of + or - 3.5dB, which is pants, but it\'ll give us an idea. Four years running I have had very interested marshall\'s ears pointed at me going under the barrier at The Nurburgring and my bro reckons it sounds like a Merlin going past on full chat, so I thought it was time to get an idea of the noise level as I have a silencer insert which was made for me which I\'ve never used.

When\'s the next MK meet folks ? My brakes are sorta done now and I start a new job Monday so can afford the petrol now !!

I have a dB tester I can bring too if anyone wants to know their exhaust noise levels. :-)

Plus I need to get the dodgy Maplin dB tester out and see how loud my missile actually is.......

Had the beast over 5 years now, pics below >

a) 2006 Nurburgring, thanks to Northloop ;
b) 2007 Nurburgring, plenty of work done after first Ring crash ;
c) 2008 after the extra work and darker paint job after Ring Crash 2. Paint cost £400 for 500ml !!!

How come you pay tax on a 1973 car?  I thought that would of been tax exempt?

I was originally looking for a TR6 as old as me, 1972 vintage. But the one I fell for was registered in May 1973, and only cars registered before the end of January 1973 get tax free status.

both  handsome, intelligent, likable fellows

Delusional too.........:2Confused

I use AON, McCheap quote it twas (£350), I am 36 now though. I\'ve had performance cars since I was 23 and never paid more than £700. Try Anal F(l)ux, they\'re pretty cheap, and even paid out double quick when I wrote off my GT-Four.

Tax is due soon at £180

Ouch, you poor thing. My TR6 costs me that, not the Rex tho, as would be the case with a lot of members IMHO.
Insurance £350, and you can get MOTs for £30 in MK with free 10 day retest, although the Rex always goes to sicknote.
Everything\'s relative. When I was earning (haven\'t worked in over 400 days, finally got off my bum and have an interview tomorrow - wish me luck!) then I was spending, and two crashes at the Ring two years running did add up. I think in the 5 years I\'ve had that car I\'ve probably spent £22k on it including the original purchase price of £10k. And that doesn\'t including ANY consumables, no fuel, insurance, tax, rubber, etc....

That\'s good, mine only makes 320 at .9 bar on stock twins, 1993 though.

I normally run the 2 screens at home or the 50" plasma, so my desktops are all widescreen. I\'d like to get several like the one of the Earth and use a moving desktop video program so it looks like you are orbiting the planet on your desktop. Sure it could be done without too much pain.

No, the great news is that Dave will look after you being a rex owner himself. He\'s even helped me put a new exhaust on.

I drive from Milton Keynes every year to get mine MOT\'d by TVM, and so does my brother, no one else will do.
