So, who's coming guys? I'll be there, its at Castle Combe on Saturday 7th August. A Vauxhall only track show, although there is obvously nothing saying you have to go on track - I doubt I will be, but its fun enough seeing all the CS guys and watching others rag their cars round Combe, such an open awesome track to view at!

http://live.totalvauxhall.co.uk/

Tickets are £18 on the gate, but we can buy them from Willay for £12 until 25th June - all payments must be made by then (including the 25th June). To find out more, click here:

http://www.corsasport.co.uk/board/viewthread.php?tid=553994

It'll be an awesome event, and not too far for you guys - come on, lets show the team that South Wales still has some get up and go in us!

Combe is about 1 hour from Cardiff and 1 hour 45 mins from Swansea, so easily commutable in a day.

I look forward to seeing you guys there - any questions, give me a shout, most of you have my phone number if you need it!

Cheers,
Tom

Bought some discs, pads, oil and filter, and plugs today.
Wish I hadn't bothered with the discs lol, couldn't get the old buggers off, the caliper bolts are all seized up and the securing screw on the drivers side disc wouldn't bloody come off. Got everything else done though

lol I tried wd40, think I may have to get it to the garage and ask them nicely to whack the discs on for me lol because I just don't have the tools to do get them off. I managed to free the pass side disc but without the caliper off there was no way it was coming out

No commission at all mate Just want to get as many people as possible at the show - it looks awesome for the club, as well as for the South Wales region - plus there will be food as always, so get on it!

And if it helps swing things for you mate (or any of the rest of the region), I may be showing on the stand.... how cool!
