No to all of the above, except possibly the pub grub (that'll depend on how long we hang around for).

For me it will be :
- standing around looking stupd
- trying not to get in the way
- asking lots of stupid questions

Advice needed gents....hopefully having 4x toyos fitted this friday. Will this cause any problems on the RR x2 as the tyres have not yet been run in, or:

a) do I drive around all day friday and into the early hours of Saturday at excessive/normal speeds to have these run in for Saturday morning [img]images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

b) Don't have have these fitted until after the RR

c) shouldn't be a problem running new tyres on a RR

Thanks

To be honest Turk mate, a rolling road presents the most tortuous event a car ever gets (save for trackdays) - the heat is always a problem, and the wear on tyres can be immense considering the timeframe - it's all about friction and grip to the rollers, so my humble advice would be to wait till after the RR for your tyre change if you can [img]images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Andiroo...cheers mate. Sound advice, i'll leave the change until after the event. I'm currently at the bare legal minumum tread wise on the current set, hopefully this will not cause a problem on the RR?

Cheers

I will be there. Just a power run though. Should be up for a bit of grub after too.

Anyone going from Surrey?
