Hmm I think I may have missed the boat on getting tickets for this. Woops!

What's the code we'd be using to join with the Z Registry?

You need to contact the Z register PA.

He is a very nice guy and gave me the code £67.50 for the car to get in on the club stand, including 2 passengers.

Good to see more Z Club members getting involved.
This is the best classic event in the UK bar none.

However, unless you are on the ball and book early it can be expensive. That is the key here.

There were 2 for 1 early bird tickets in January which meant for £ 102 or £ 51 per person you get full three day tickets for Fri/Sat/Sun, access all areas and free stand pass infield to park with all the other Zs. That is VALUE....... £ 17 per day for great racing and more classics than you will see anywhere else in one place in the country..... an absolute bargain.

:(

Just taken the red L28E Turbo engined 240Z for a final check and test before run up to Silverstone on Thursday, thought I was all set, head gasket issue sorted, fuel leak sorted, MSD ignition box signalling issues sorted, 5 miles up the road and the near side front brake caliper seized in a cloud of smoke, tried to limp home and lost the brakes completely on steep downwards hill, brake fluid had overheated and pedal went to the floor, brown trouser moment, frantic cadence braking using the handbrake just managed to keep me from rear ending the van in front...........

Looks like not going to be able to get brake issue sorted in time as need to leave Devon early Thursday morning so really need to pick up a new caliper and pads tomorrow
Anyone have any ideas who if anyone may stock within 50 miles of Exeter ?
It is Toyota part, fitted to 4Runner and maybe some other models ?
Not the usual SW12 Hilux type but larger SW13B

Here is eBay link to correct part but this can only be delivered Thursday which will be too late so need to find someone who has one in an actual store/factors etc

Sw13B
