i was there aswell i was in the pink coloured mk2 rs 2000 the roads round chorley ar bad at the moment but thay've not put the poll tax up ar you going up to the lakes on friday unk?

I am indeed heading up on the Friday, myself and a few others. Are you meeting up with any of the convoy's from darn sarf?

[Dazzle]

Well, seeing as I can't help myself, I've put a different engine in my new red one already!!
I was going to start a thread to show you what I've been doing but currently out of the country at the mo
Anyway, new engine is in but had trouble with starter. Now fitted a new high torque starter and with a bit of fettling, all's good
Got a new stainless manifold and system on it's way. Was hoping to fit that on Thursday then take it to get set up on Friday. Doesn't look like I'm back in the country till Thursday so going to be a bit of a late night I feel!
Was going to change the front brakes for some AP 4 pots but not sure if the Master cylinder will be up to the job??
Any thoughts on that one?
