Does anyone on here get involved with track days? I have plenty of experiance on bikes but would like to get out I the scooby when it arrives and would be great if I could come along with a few of the regulars on here when she arrives. I noticed you've just done a brands hatch evening. How did everyone get on?
With regard the front sub frame rust. Would the under tray be easily removed for inspection? Specifically considering Craig's car, is the power steering pump a big job? I will try to do as much of the repairs and maintainance myself. Also the gear box issue. Should a new box be required. Mwhat sort of money are replacements?
Thanks all

It would be worth you contacting Gary Moulson (Moley on here) re insurance if you haven't already. Gary insures a large number of cars on this forum and is used to dealing with mods etc. You will find it alot easier than a high street insurer as they dont specialise.
I cant comment on exact cost of some parts as I've not had to replace those particular parts, but the good thing with these cars is that parts are widely available and alot of the time you can source good second hand parts on these forums for alot less money.
