If you're offering passenger rides in a mint green car I'm rather partial to one of those if you don't mind. Will be there Sunday

As ever gents - remember to keep us posted on your Spa and Tunnel bookings for the website 
We are now 10 on the Eurotunnel (@website times) and 24 964s
As a side note, if any of you have any walkie talkies for the drive over and back - bring them, makes its easier to keep track of all.
The race to the tunnel d day is on! 
It's coming close to being bigger than any London 964 meet so far. It must be in terms of epic 964 weekend/ track trips! Lol
It'll all be worth it - very much look forward to seeing yours in the metal!
Cheers Ian - website updated.

I've just done some last minute shopping and am now expecting a rear wiper delete bung and light weigh carpet set.
So will be losing the pounds I put on over Christmas by stripping out all the glue and excess weight stuff. Should be worth it though, as the kilos lost on the car should be of great benefit round Spa when chasing the Hornet.

I've made a little weight saving also!

Carpet/soundproofing = 69.4 lbs
rear wiper = 4.5 lbs
rear seat belts = 8 lbs
parcel shelf = 24 lbs
Total = 105.9 lbs (48.13 Kg)
I junked the front footwell soundproofing a while ago when I put the floorboards in. So when I take account of that and when the LW carpet goes in I'm hoping for a net loss approaching 40 Kg. I'll weigh it all in and out when the time comes, of course. With other weigh losses the car has just sneaked under 1300 Kg with half a tank so something like 1260 kg will be good.

PS. I'd like to see some previews of what you, Grant & Andrew are up to re Cup'esque decals!
