what did you and your mk3 leon do today

[Cubbington]

Always Safety first, Good wet weather tyres and drive according to the conditions.

Which tyres do you use?

~88000km driven and car required engine oil, cabin filter and brake fluid change. During change a leak between gearbox and driveshaft was noticed. It must be some fresh malfunction, because gearbox was dry in the March this year. I will have to address this sooner rather than later.

Also installed some of underside covers which should reduce fuel consumption and road noise.

It's interesting that you've fitted the under-aero as I am planning on the same next week....

Did you fit 5Q0 825 229 C front and 5Q0 825 206 K rear?

PS4S or Conti 7's which are supposed to be better but I have found them very good but dont seem to last as long.

Getting this lot fitted today... Sachs Race Engineering organic clutch and new flywheel... Plus maybe front mudflaps and Audi A3 jacking points if there is time...

Happy birthday to me

Great day on the track today, Had a great time with a proper MINI (British Leyland not BMW) who was running a 1360cc engine so had tons of power. Noticed that he and I were enjoying the very wet afternoon but the rear wheel cars were having trouble from stopping the back stepping out and we had a great run of 10 laps both pushing our motors and lots of grins when we came off the track.

Morning was very damp to start with and we had a red flag on the sighting lap where somebody had come off the track on the first lap.

Got another day booked for the weekend which looks like another mixed bag of weather so looking forward to doing the same again.
