Re: Now closed permanently
You have been a massive asset to RX-8 owners, Pete. You provided great service for many years, so I'm sad to see you closing up, but hope to see you at a trackday now and again.

Re: Essex & Adjoining Counties Meet - SUNDAY, 24 Mar, 10.15am Brunch, Details on page 48
Well, at least we had some sunshine today for the Essex Brunch Meet, even if there was a chilly breeze. Great to meet David, from Billericay, at his first meet in his 06 VR RX-8, which he purchased 6 months ago in Dorset. Great to see the stalwart regulars too, including the ever charming young Feli...

I should have said thanks to Ian too! I adapted a route he chose for an earlier Essex run we did 2-3 years ago. Ian also suggested a few destinations for this run, including Cressing Temple Barns.

Re: C hooked discs
Kevin, slightly off topic, but have you looked at (or tried) the M-Tec disks with curved grooves? I'm running these on the the front axle, with Racing Brake calipers, and they have been great on the road and track. I know several other RX-8 owners who like them, which is why I've currently got them....

Re: Essex & Adjoining Counties Meet - SUNDAY, 24 Mar, 10.15am Brunch, Details in topic
Final(ish) details for our Sunday Brunch. I suggest everyone aims to arrive around 10am, so we can meet up in the car park before going in. The weather looks to be dry, if not sunny. PARKING: the main car park is immediately ahead of you as you enter up a ramp from the main road. HOWEVER, this can g...

Re: AGM 2024 - BMM Sunday 19th May
My apologies in advance, I can't make this year's AGM as my son, DIL and grandson are flying back into the UK that day from Canada. We have to meet up with them and return their cat, whom we will be cat-sitting for 2 weeks whilst they are away. Looks like the club is heading for a reasonable turnout...

Re: An opportunity to exhibit your car at NEC Classic Motor Show (Birmingham): 8-10 Nov 2024
Good question. My instinct says unlikely at this sort of show, but I don't know if that is correct. I'll see if I can find any "rules" on entries.

willberry70 should have online access to the stand bookings to date, so only he can check and then the list can be updated.

Re: UPDATE 3/21: **SAFETY ALERT: Fuel Tank recall - Fuel Leaks & Other Issues"
It's worth mentioning that's the Mazda North America version of the Recall instructions, which we already have on file. What we don't have is a current version of the Mazda UK document. As Dave knows, Mazda UK would not give us a copy of the UK version when I requested them, citing corporate restri...

To meet somewhere mid-Essex around 9.30am, do a scenic convoy drive for 45-60 mins to the brunch venue, then finish after brunch? May be an option fo...
