Or, if you can get to Bookham, which is on your route, you would be very welcome to travel in the QP with me.
There you are! We're queuing up to offer you a lift and all keen to make sure you can get there.

I might make it if current electrical gremlins and rock hard suspension can get sorted by then.

I am glad you are all ahead of my tardiness in posting this up this year - we look forward to seeing you all again.
I have attached the .jpg of the flier for this year...

As if no dampers at all. Great on a perfect road surface (as if) and bone-jarring on anything else,
Assuming you have Skyhook, a hunch would be a possible Skyhook ECU related problem. If there were a problem with one or more dampers (e.g. the wiring connection to a damper was compromised, as I had experienced), you’d get a little warning with a damper symbol on the dash.

Can’t attend this year as busy hosting. Went last year and was really good. Best to get there early as some of the more interesting cars leave around lunch time. Even better if meeting as a group!

Hope you all enjoy!

Yes I have the check suspension warning. But this appeared alongside a load of other electrical gremlins. A trip to Hampshire is planned; for £20-worth or resets or £2,000-worth of new kit.

Good luck with that. I learned that some things cannot be reset through the battery disconnect alone and need direct interfacing with. Hopefully the reset measures will be enough.

I suspect the trip to Hampshire is a reference to the fact he is off to Sportsitalia for diagnosis

Yep. Basically sometime in April, Matt is going to say, "Took ten minutes, that's £50 for cash, goodbye." or "Yeah, you need a new Hokey- Koky 2000 with subwoofers and four new parping couplers, that will be £5,000 plus vat, leave it with us until Christmas."

And I will probably say, "Uh. OK then."

My friend is going to France that day but I'd like to attend, just don't know yet if I'll be off work that day
