Hi Johan
Would be very interested , but don`t know any of the events or the organisers ? Have got a pretty full calendar this year but you never know!!
I am hoping for a last minute entry for Le Mans classic, As for the spyder , I hope to be back at Goodwood for the revival meeting. Let me know who the organisers are if you can.
Many thanks Jon

Re: T70 at Mallory Park Today..

Congrats on your 2 wins in Italy Jon. You got the gearbox sorted then. Who and what got sent home for an oversized engine? Very sketchy details in Autosport.
Will you be at the Donnington test Thurs, and the race at the w/end? I should be there running Carlos's 3b all being well.

Re: T70 at Mallory Park Today..

Hi Jon. I finally found out about Stefano from Clive, so were all set for our capacity check at the weekend. Not now doing the test on Thurs but we'll be there for the race. I'll make sure we bring the spinner sets and samples as we have a few variants for thread tolerance.
By for now

Hi Johan
Thanks for the pic, I was thinking of using nuts for racing, easier to get on and off in race conditions etc, and have a set of spinners for show.

Re: T70 at Mallory Park Today..

Nah, you don't want to do that. You can't beat running around in the pouring rain changing to wets and trying to beat your 3 min pit-stop record...Oh and we've got all these lovely forged spinners to shift

See you at the track

Darren
