I thinks its only the SOHC D16 that is non-interference, and thus should survive a cambelt snap.

I will be bringing some supplies; oil/water/petrol/tools etc. Is there somewhere I can leave it all whilst on track? Sure I won't be the only one to bring such items

all that weight in your metro sam will be good on corners but even slower on the straights  hopefully 100db mine should be ok. i was thinking it was 96db. regards ricky

Anyone interested in a 10.15am track pass?
I'm not sure of the cost as I've heard a friend of a friend has this pass spare. But I would have thought £25 will get it.
The person selling it will be at castle combe before 9am so you can easily meet and buy it off them.
Let me know asap if you want it. PM me with your name and mobile number and in the morning I will give you the contact number of the person selling it.
I'll be getting there about 9.30ish. Looks like the weather is going to be great so looking forward to a brilliant day! see you all there.
Cheers
Matt
