Perry,

I'm up for that date, taking a risk though as Dave Tetlow's motor is built on a short engine I sold him - be nice to see how it goes compared to my 3.9.

I'm sure Dave T will come. He's in Niagra at the mo getting married. I'll mail him to see if he's up for it.

Are you looking for more?

Can I post about this on the GT40s site? Could get some rather tasty ones appear!

Would rather give the forum members a chance first mate, but its up to perry.

Oops, did I miss something ?

Do I edit the thev8kid post to add 'Dave Brooke - MGB GT' , didn't think I could edit someone elses posts?

I presume the rolling road are paid on the day rather than someone trying to manage it in advance.

Thanks for that. I'm trying not to get my BB's crossed while reading Donington news on a motorsport site, thought I must have missed something in an earlier post.

no worries mate,

Need to double check with Perry how many spaces we got as we are now filling up fast

dont forget, this list is now for members who ARE now available for the rolling road,

mgbv8 · Post by **mgbv8** » Fri Jul 04, 2008 9:11 pm

No need to check with me boy's. Tony can keep the score while I'm away racing for the next couple of days.
We need 10 or more on the day. Thats it really. If its got a V8, its welcome IMO.
I'm just keen to see how mine does on the rollers since last year.
I had an issue with ground clearance last year and my pipes hit the roller bed. But I did only have 60mm ground clearance due to my silencers being so low. Martin has said he doesnt mind if I leave them off so I can run my car as I do at the Pod. I'll have to bring it on the trailer though. But as I'm only 15 mins away its no biggie for me.

Looking forward to this already. And I have to get 3 race days and a week in the Canaries out the way first.

Gonna have to cancel as new engine has angled plugs and I'm not sure my exhaust fanimolds will fit. Checking now but it's beginning to look dubious for me being able to make it.
