Details, details :D what track have you booked up?



Hi Trev
We’re off to do Snetterton 300
On the 10th of April.
Looks pukka. 2.8 plus miles.
One of longest straits.
Seems like a good mix of cars.
mad track cars going. Caterhams and crossbows.
then megane 265’s, VX220sand the like.
Going with a pal with a V Tech CRX with a type R integra lump and box in it
And a mate with a mapped smoky BMW.
Can’t wait.
Car being prepped next week.
Oil, plugs, brake flush and a new custom downpipe as I was getting. A build up of back pressure at full revs.

Nice, with your cars spec. you should give most of them a run for their money. Make sure you get yourself an in-car camera, GoPro or cheap copy will do, be good to see some footage (YouTube is easy to post to) and Enjoy it!

Got it towed down to garage as I think the turbo finally gave up the ghost
Typical, I had a replacement ready to be fitted but needed to book it in - ah well the joys

Sucks. Had turbo issues with mine last year. Dramas. No fun. Bloody expensive too.

Went to start it just now after three/four weeks of not moving to find I have a flat battery. Other half's car broke down last night at 11pm with flat battery/fooked alternator.

Pm me if your stuck. Would be cool to meet another cupra guy, many around my way but none stop and speak. I'm in pe1 postcode so you know the distance needed to travel from your location.
