Re: Expensive hobby
That's some going! I don't abuse the clutch in fairness so sohould be ok. 5-10 runs on the day is probably all I will do as I have a 200 mile drive home after unless I get the use of a trailor.

Re: Expensive hobby
Got the car back today and the damage was a lot less than feared. The guys at the garage replaced the burst hose on the NSF and pressure tested the rear shock and found that it didn't need replacing, a saving of over £200. All in all very happy, though the biggest part of the bill was the DRC machine costs, they don;t have one so have to rent one in at a silly cost.
I'm probably going to use the money I would have spent on the shocks and put it towards a carbon clean later in the year. or get the alloys refurbished, or get the scratch on the rear wing done, or get the dashboard chime fixed so I know when I have left the lights on.... the list goes on

Re: Expensive hobby
