    why are you so intent in doing track days in the winter? surely there is a better chance of not raining off in the spring or summer? could come and batter you in the cosworth?

    Because numpty boy - they're kinda busy in the summer plus Oulton has been fine the last 2 times I ran it in March & November & that's when track-action online organises them for.

    Of course you should, have you finished wrapping it or have you stripped it all off ?

    It took a hole bottle of sticky stuff remover to do the wing. Then the local valet guy took the task on for ten quid. He came back 3 hours later covered in glue... The car wasn't too bad lol.
    The vinyl was stratader from ctn and the glue was very thick. Hopefully I will get some time tomorrow to tidy the car up... Wouldn't want to show everyone up lol
