I'm out (will be for most of this year) plus left the MX5 club.

I'm keen

The car is in bits at the moment as its going on a diet. Hoping to get around 50kg out of it.

The event is 2 Months away so should be good to get it all back together.

The driver should go on a diet too, but that sounds much more difficult and a lot less fun.

for the driver...have lost about 10kg in the past couple of years, but another 10-15 would see me about where I should be.

for the car...any way to make it faster that doesn't cost money is a good thing and there's a lot of weight that can be removed without getting too silly.

Three of us MX-5ers registered now. Should be a good day with a good variety of cars.

Looking fwd to this one, new front sway bar, new alignment, new tyres. Hopefully the stupid thing will stop being so tail happy.

I'm not so sure the FB page is working correctly.....gotta have a look why when I get a bit of time. It was put together on a whim late one night recently. I think I have a bit to learn about FB.
