Re: Ray Harrison (Harrizone) RIP; Scattering of his ashes at Brands Hatch, Fri 3 Dec

Hi all, Thank you so much to all who came to Brands Hatch today to pay their respects when my mum and I scattered my dad's ashes. It was a great send off and a fitting place, that will be a reminder (good or bad! :lol: ), forever more when you are driving around. Thank you to Malcolm for organising ...

Re: MAJOR UPDATE Page 6: **SAFETY ALERT: Fuel Tank recall - Fuel Leaks & Other Issues"

Might be worth pointing out to Mr Zinzan that Mazda UK only took this action on account of your highlighting the problem and not through any foresight on their part :-k . Cheeky blighters :lol: .

Re: Essex Rotary

A text can sometimes help as Aston can be so engrossed and under a car, or bonnet, that answering the phone is not always an option. Keep trying is my advice.

Re: What have you done to your RX-8 today????

Re: ***TRACKDAY Brands Hatch - Friday 4th December SOLD OUT***

It could be argued that both travelling and accomodation at Brands Hatch is for educational purposes :^o as you are attending to improve your car control and receive tuition by following (albeit following around) others example :twisted: .

However outdoor pursuits may well go ahead as the emphasis is on indoor entertainment etc. So fingers crossed as this will be subject to MSV's/MoT's interpretation of the rules.

Mine went this way Chris and were replaced with conventional brake discs from some that Aston had in stock. Not sure of the make but were not anything special and easily available.
