Could someone tell me when we will be getting the info for the track day? I have usually been e-mailed it by now for MGOT events. Have I been left out???? Looks like we should be in for some good weather. Cheers John

Hi John, This will come direct from LoT, I would expect to see it today or tomorrow. I have had nothing yet either so it is not just you! Regards Dave

Hi John, Great set of photos in the gallery, now everyone can see what they missed! I hope you got your diff sorted once you were home, hopefully just low on oil. It started to rain at 3.00 ish so you only missed one dry session. Regards Dave

[b]Croft Track Day Photo's.[/b] I have downloaded my Croft photo's and hope you all enjoy looking at them once they have been approved, one thing that I noticed was that everyone had loads of space on track to enjoy themselves. Cheers Trevor.

[b]Photos[/b] Hi Dave, Glad you all like the photos, Glenys took quite a few of them, hence loads of me (sorry!). Unfortunately the diff needs a new crown wheel and pinion and probably other parts as well, so basically a complete reconditioned unit is needed. I had the front oil seal replaced by a garage and had assumed they had topped up the fluid. It had had some road use before Croft and appeared to be okay, but I assume the high G forces (!!) forced what little oil was in there along the axle and away from the diff, thus causing the damage. So the trailer has now paid for its self, as a recovery back to N Wales from there would have been £400+. Thanks to the lad with the green & orange "F" that were parked next to me for the use of some oil, but by then the damage was done. I did manage to hitch a ride in a 220bhp supercharged Elise, you may have seen me with my hand out of the window hanging onto the roof, and my other hand was grasping the front of the seat, wow could that thing go! It certainly off-set the diff diFFappointment. I've also got loads of photos of Lotus and Honda, do we have a contact with them or some way of uploading onto their web site? I'm booked for Donington, so hope to have it sorted by then cheers John
