Some Team Anorak planning last night on this.
Can.....not wait.
Luke - if you want to go, have a chat with Tim. as we may still be able to add someone to our pitch.
Unless you are driving like a lunatic, over short distances, that's an indicator something isn't right I'm afraid chap.
With my new uncammed engine in, I'm averaging 37mpg at the mo. Which isn't too bad given it gets a pasting every now and then.

Good shout. I'm booked on the RS day at Oulton. I'd like to do both the RS day at Brands and the RS day at Bedford.
I also want to do Anglesey and Snet or Cadwell at some point. Doubtful I'll get any in for May unfortunately. Let me look at the...
Good to see everyone and catch up.
Thanks Mike for the caliper and the idle check. Looking forward to Wales this weekend and Le Mans now. Sorry I had to duck off early.
Lol! I have bad experiences of heading to Wales and my chariot of choice failing on me in deepest, darkest 'bumfuck' country (wasn't clio, was a Mini JCW).
This time, i'm going over prepared :)
Can't wait for the Wales trip. I extended my breakdown cover with the AA to cover recovery to any location of my choice, in anticipation :)
The T is looking awesome 'Othy. Didn't know you'd gone down the air con delete route aswell. Good work.
Ha ha! Yep, it is nice to have it back. Concerned with the idle issue though. Also, both wheel bearings need to be replaced next month. They have some play in and are starting to make very faint noise.
Trusty Shicra is the back up plan :)
It is open bud, but its traffic controlled, so the queues are horrendous at times. To be honest, the whole of caversham etc has been gridlock the last few weeks at peak times. Have fun!
Thanks for the offer of a lift, but yep, I am in the flamer.
At least my chav wagon works. For now ;)
Depending on where you are in West Sussex, Rentech in Portsmouth may be closer. Both Rentech and S&MWM know what they are doing so the car is in safe hands at either of those.
As Chip said, decat is a fail if the emissions don't pass.
Mine isn't decatted. It is however extensively modified (cage, seats, steering wheel, Cup brake setup on a non Cup - ABS delete, etc etc). Check my project thread.
The key is to visit an MoT tester who is experienced with track cars. I...
I'm glad they are. They do a top job (or at least they have for me) and have a genuine interest in the cars they insure / broker for.
Better than speaking to some flannel at Elephant who doesn't even know what an induction kit is and probably spent the night before taking selfies and becoming...
