I am in for the 16 th with BB. Ralf I can come out and help with the brakes etc etc if needed on the day. Not sure how much use I will be, but do take instructions fairly well.
Phil, very kind offer , thanks.
My car in for a clean and check on Thursday. Hope no trouble is found. Every thing seemed fine on the drive back home.

I'm in for the 16th if there are any spots available in BB. Either way I can come out and open up garage to get BB out and help with brakes, not that I have ever changed pads before.

Based on my experience in BB with almost no brakes and looking at the rotors I would agree that they need replacing as well.

I'm still I Wellington during the week, but happy to meet at HD to access BB this weekend or next.

23/24 Aug is good for me or 6/7 Sep. Doubt we'll get a date to suit all but I know John McM needs a deadline to finish the editing.

It's up to you guys with BB, but I think 3 is a perfect number for a dedicated day, or at max 4. You need two runs to get your eye in, albeit I'm not sure Chris needs more than a few laps

Sounds like Ralf has the pads sourced. Just need rotors. Maybe get Jonno (previous owner) to do the job for a cashie? I have the spare card and remote if you want to do it pre 16th. Wish I could go out there but I have a house to paint and the scaffolding isn't moving until it's done so Herman and the Turbo 3.6 are locked in for the duration.

Pretty sure the top 3 were running full Hankook race wets.

And Kevin's 944 was only there for its first real shakedown. I have a feeling that in the dry it'll be a ripper - seriously good buy for someone.

I prefer a Saturday early evening if 23/8 as I may still be painting the house if the weather is crap. 6/7 Sep are fine anytime. I have edited up to Day 14. Hermitage, Levels, Ruapuna and pack up to go. Assuming the iMac doesn't pack up I will have this sorted within a week. Then I can look at doing a highlights package.

Kevs car will definitely be a good one. Yodas time not to shabby either, he wasn't on race wets.

Just listed a cat bypass I only just bought off a fellow RL'er. Poor timing as the day after I payed for it I got a line on a Scart system I prefer

Really just looking to cover what it cost me

Honda brake pads and discs should be a pretty easy undo some bolts and then put them back on, decent socket set and some WD40 and it should be simple as.

That's Chris, Neil and me with BB on the 16th.
Is there a special procedure to book BB? Haven't done it before.

I'll get the pads tomorrow.
John, where have you seen the rotors? is it that listing?

If it is that then it is in my neighbourhood. I'll get the auction and pick it up.
