    wheels

    [QUOTE=shimmy;n477288]Ok, well Dave at Opentrack has coem up trumps! Book the wheel transport as you book the trackday
    Wheels can be delivered to the circuit and returned to the Uk for a cost of £25 a set payable on collection at the circuit.


    We will be arranging Three points of collection.
    • North = Sheffield.
    • Middle = Cambridgeshire / Cambourne
    • South = Kent / Brands Hatch area

    thing is dave is only delivering to salzburg.i think a lot of us want to use our wheels at ring.

      I can't see how you can do a set of tyres in on the trip unless you go drifting.
      Most of it on motorway followed by some track time.
      Kiss off death but I'll take what's on the rims.

              Well from previous track days and experience , you can guess the current state of my tyres ! They would get me down there, but would be shagged after TD. Running on my 18" rims at moment but have spare proper CSL purest 19" rims, if that is the order of the day for this trip, other wise I will just bang a brand new set of 18" Cups onto a spare set of TD 18" wheels and keep square set up. Given state of my car, perhaps it could be the shining example of how NOT to treat such a wonderful piece of machinery !:hahaha:
              Put me down for a set of rims Shimster/Dave.

                  I will also throw 2 tyres and maybe a spare rim into the motor just in case of a puncture on way, cant be assed waiting around to get sorted so will go with gear to change by side of road.
                  Mine will be 18" so not much help to most !:hahaha:

                      Read above, I have a few mm left until the canvas, once through to canvas the roads are quite straight and they should be ok to get me there

                        If anyone has never been to the ring before, then you do not really need cups at the ring..... if you know which way the track goes then thats fine, if you don't then you don't really want to be trying to go round corners as fast as cups can carry you!






                        DunCaN is excepted to this rule as he drives on canvas

                              Shimmy.the front tyre only have 3mm tread and the rear I bought from mattcslnut have around 2.5mm.in another thread which I cant find it Was discussed that a new set of cups may not make the whole trip so I Got no chance wid these.I've spent 600 on the road tyres so I can't buy new cups right now.Mrs had capped my spends lol.

                                What I'm asking is can we not find a way of sticking with shimmys original plan and pay for a person who is going to take sets to all or both destinations?I know it bears on the amount of people who still want tyres taken for them but do we still have time to arrange this please?as long as we get enough takers.
