Nah. I was dead keen because I can't make the next MX5 club day, but when I asked for the day of work they reminded me that I'd be in WA :oops:

Do you know anyone there or just tagging along to a random track day?

So track day was a success last week. Choping my time down by 2 seconds compared to the last supersprint i entered in.

The Yellowspeeds have finially settled in, and mak the car is sitting low, a job for this week, raise the car up a tad. It sitting about 55mm at the lowest point without me in it...

I ordered my SMB exhaust system last week, so hoping ill get a call in the next few days :)

that i did, only about 1 or 2 laps each session, then a bug would land itself in the lense case.

but its the same setup as this

Not much has happened over chrissy, although...

I have some Elise seats in it now, nice and low they are, just a bit hard to get out of when the car is parked in a tight space.
Im about to order my front cat section from SMB :)
Done a oil change....
And fixed my airbag problem, it seems it was just a loose connection on the passenger side bag...i was a bit worried about this, but seems to be fixed now

Looking forward to this Bathurst run on the weekend, havent been on a decent run for a while now
