Malcolm, I will ask the question. I reckon the Prosport would be superb fun! John - message received! You're on the list. Jos - your interest is also noted. It would be fun to see how a 308 compares to a 40. I've driven one in the past and it was lovely. I'll PM you later today. Best...

I've been in touch with the guys who run driver instruction at Dunsfold, which is perhaps best known as the place made famous by a certain BBC motoring program..... The GTD40 Club will be visiting in the Spring of 2007 (exact date to be confirmed) - which should give everyone plenty of time...

Thanks Paul/Malc... If anyone else would like to come, please let me know as soon as you can. Ideally I would like a deposit of £10 per head, as this is what the pub has asked for in order to confirm the booking. Paul has kindly put the Christmas online here Members and non-members are...

Hi Bill! Not all us Brits shoot clays like the woolly-topped fellow! :D I reckon he couldn't hit the proverbial barn door. Even with a machine gun. Whereas I can...... Sometimes :shrug: :confused: Charles :)

to the top......

Apparently, I'm a Corvette : You're a classic - powerful, athletic, and competitive. You're all about winning the race and getting the job done. While you have a practical everyday side, you get wild when anyone pushes your pedal. You hate to lose, but you hardly ever do. Spooky! :D

A quick reminder for anyone wishing to attend the GTD40 Club Clay Pigeon Shooting event as advertised in the last club magazine. The date for this event is next Saturday, 16th September at the Royal Berkshire Shooting School, with the shooting to start from 2.30pm. No doubt we'll be arriving...

Just a reminder to all that this weekend sees forum member Malcolm contesting the Britcar 24 hour race at Silverstone. From all of us here, Malc, GOOD LUCK :D Charles

Well, I think we'll have to see about that, Malc. New tyres and BS will only get you so far :D :D Simon H - you confused me with Malcolm, I reckon!

A great day, with a little rain in the morning. Thanks for posting the pics Simon :) Daz, glad Steph enjoyed herself and hope the journey back was not too bad. Great pics too! The highlight of the day for me was being on track with Jackie Oliver: Watching a driver with that much talent...

It took me an awfully long time, but having looked carefully at all of the pictures, Kate gets my vote :D

Malc, it appears that the answer is "No". I found this link on Pistonheads, but there are others: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?t=211062&f=23&h=0&hw=numberplate+legal And this one from the DVLA: http://www.dvla.gov.uk/faq/faq_number_plates.htm#26 HTH! Charles

... this time at Gurston: http://www.pistonheads.tv/clip941 Looks fun! :)

I have the vented Cosworth disks on the rear of my GTD40 and seem to be eating through brake pads (which are the Mintex 1144 compound) at an alarming rate - 2 or 3 track days per set! This time I'm thinking about going to the Mintex 1155 compound, which is more track biased. Does anyone have...

Keith / John, details of the clay shoot will be in the next GTD Club magazine. :D Charles

Nice one! As Paul says, tell us more! That's an excellent choice of car - I really like D types Is it a Lynx? Alloy body? Put me down for a ride in it! Charles

I can vouch for that! Straight line pace was about the same, but when the GT3's started braking, Malc wasn't just still accelerating - he was taking another gear!! A race car, on slicks and with downforce is like being in a parallel universe. Next time, I'll remember to bring a seat...

Hi James. There were at least 6 GT3 RS's there, plus many other 911s ranging from 964's to full race monsters! We had Dave in his R42, Malc in his Prosport plus me with my GTD40. Paul T came to watch, and took some photos so perhaps he'll be along soon..... As with all Goldtrack days...

Hi John. You have PM :D Charles

Hi Tony. The date is indeed the 21st June - which is the Wednesday :) All the best, Charles
