Sorry I was too lazy to come say hi at Hampton, Kieran. I saw the photos on Facebook and they look awesome.

(Ps so sorry)

Was pretty good fun, BRM likes the Roders as we found out.

Dont worry Ash we had fun without you.

Went for a wheel alignment today, got told my rack end has a little play. Where abouts would I get a replacement from?

Repco has them off the shelf most of the time, however Autolign gives a Discount of MX5 Club members...

Sports steering wheel? Have you modified the steering column or something. I have had a "sports steering wheel" for many years and have never been pinged on it.

Certifiers note down everything

As the car didn't have factory Airbags you don't NEED a cert for the steering wheel however the certifier will note it just to be safe rather than sorry.

funny thing, it was the factory one on there for the cert

I had a 310mm Momo unit on mine when I got the cert and it isn't on my plate.

Hey buddy, me too!

It's gonna be fuuuunnnn~

8th of August?

I admit I might be cheating with Semi Slicks but I lack in skill.

Did you want to come along? $150 for the entry, and I'd love to piss everyone off with flooding the track with MX5's..

Chris got it, he was quick.

Time for some new switches in the interior. Plus my hazard switch is very hit or miss.

Do you need a roll bar? If not, I'd be keen as.

Argh forgot to mention that, unfortunately you do. On that note I'd better check mine is ok.

Finally put the new wheels on.. Much better.
