Can't beat getting your sausage out at Brunchen...

Good stuff, will Dave allow it in the car after it's been used?

Forget fancy wipers and beam benders... have you all got some euro change for the Belgian service station toilets on the way there? We always seem to pull up outside, all desperate for a pee, then have to beg, steal or borrow enough change to get through the turnstiles.

S'ok, you can thank me later (after you've washed your hands!)

You may or may not have heard that we are having lots of strikes in France at the moment. France has archaic employment laws making it almost impossible to hire and fire people as and when. Its why we have 11% unemployment. The government is passing laws to change this and the unions are not happy,so lots of strikes.On of the actions they are taking are blocking the petrol refineries, thus creating fuel shortages and closed service stations.this action could last some while, fill up just before you enter the tunnel and on the way back fill up just before you enter France.

Luckily we never stop for fuel in France as we use the same Shell in Belgium each way

Been buying kinda non-essential stuff on line this eve.

Firstly - I have decided to take the EVO (Sorry E) as its just better set up for the track than the WR1 and I have more confidence in it, more a mind thing. Its what I brought the EVO for anyway and the WR1 is a bit of a shelf queen, I only did 700 mils in it last year.

So on my really un-important list of things purchased

New wiper blades
Ralliart Mudflaps

I brought some of the other essentials, GB sticker, light thingy, hazard thingy, think I have a luminescent thingy some where.

EVO in for a service - had the brakes done couple of weeks back before Brands and they are epic, but squeal like you would not believe. XP10s.

Tyres - I got some Federal RSRs on it at the mo, with some P Zeros available as a spare set (on nicer looking alloys). Just debating whether to take two sets which I will probably just stick with the RSR's anyway. Maybe one spare just in case.

Cant wait!!!

It's still going to wear a SES sticker though

As I said the other morning, if you have more confidence in the Evo then it makes sense, you want to be focussing on the track and what's around you rather than learning the car as well.

That is a shame about the 1.

The ring is more like a road rather than a track so a fast road set up would be better set up wise.

The fact you're joining us is the important thing..

Don't forget to make sure you have registered the correct car with euro tunnel.

Glad you're looking forward to the trip, you won't be disappointed..

Have you all got a SES shirt or hoodie??

It always good to see everyone in a club shirt on the Saturday night and for a group photo.

So if you would like one you can order it here:
http://www.southeastscoobies.co.uk/v...ead.php?t=4992
(fill the boxes to get your user names to bo embroidered)

I have spoken to Gemma at Bigboolies.com and if you get your orders in by 17.00 tomorrow (25/6/16) you will have what ever you order in time for the trip..

3K Rev limit?

Or for greater amusement map the DBW so that the last 50% of throttle is in the last 2% of pedal travel!

It's not DBW unfortunately and E's throttle only runs 0% and 100% anyway,

Think you should fit a bubble machine so that it blows bubbles out of his exhaust instead of making a noise

It may well be the bearing, mine had a similar noise turned out to be the bearing.

I brought 500ml of Millers octane booster - is that enough ? How much should you put in a tank. TBH I don't know what the EVO was mapped on anyway but I feel like I should help her through Europe with a suitable level of RON.

She is at the Garage getting all the fluids done at the mo - hopefully back Wed.

I can pretty much guarantee I will win the prize for 'most squeeky brakes'.

Yes probably read the instructions as to how much you need in the tank.

The only slightly dodgy time re petrol is the fuel stop in Belgium which is just past halfway.
The shell V power is not quite full strength apparently?

Once in Germany quality fuel 100 to 102 ron is readily available.

As Ian says it's only really in Belgium where the fuel isn't brilliant, those bottles of millers are not the greatest though they only treat 20 litres of fuel and don't add much actual Ron rating, I would just play it safe on the way out and back and not do big autobahn pulls at 150! /points at Big-E
