I dunno if he could hear them or not. It's not my car.

Often help out the boys on a wed night, and boy do they need it. More often I shout abuse at them and laugh at their general incompetence bless em. :-D .
I often quote this especially when it come to motorsport.
"Prior Preparation Prevents p*ss Poor Performance" So why oh why do they leave it until a couple of days before and expect me to perform miracles!
Brother Soggster came for his rear pads today and look what i spotted. And no I don't have any on a shelf :doh:

God help you guys over the weekend if this is anything to go by. At least there should now be 5 that won't give you any problems :handgestures-thumbup:

Oh we all run green stuff and find them ok for road and track. not bad value either.

Ran over to St Hellens to the slicksters unit with a trailer full of tools in the worst rain i have seen for a long time, to help get his Jag back on terraferma, all done and seems happy enough, next is his Eunos turbo suspension /subframe /wishbome and bushes swap, and then his eunos track car, new wing wishbones and anything else that got bent at Blyton, my trusty grinder will be my friend with that :handgestures-thumbup: :whistle: :wink:

Have done another geometry set up. It amazes me how every single mx5 I have had into my place is set all over the place. I don't just mean set for track or road, I mean wheels pointing in different directions, with positive camber one side and negative the other.
It's a good value for money thing to have checked and adjusted. ( not just front tracking at cr#p fit ).

If anyone in Lincolnshire want's it doing give me a PM, I take my time and do it properly. :handgestures-thumbup:

:clap: any discount for members neil :wink: :whistle:
I cannot stress enough just how important this is to have done on these Roadsters and having good shoes fitted, i always push owners to have this done, so much so that i personally set up discount with the local Toyota dealership for members to have this done, it is very important for how the roadster holds the road to get the best out of them, and the difference Will be felt straight away even with sh*t budget tyres on.
