2 years without a worthy car for one of your events though. Looking forward to this one, first proper early morning drive in over 2 years for me and first driving event in my Honda. Bring it on!

Re: Kent Run Round 4 Saturday 22nd August
Alternator related - something gets very noisy with high electrical load. Alternator is less than a year old, belt less than a year old. Could be as simple as needing a touch extra tension on the belt, could be the alternator on the way out. Going to try the former tonight.
Edit: Fine on the 40 mile run to work this morning. Hmmmm. I'm wondering if something slippery got on the belt? Will check / adjust tension tonight anyway.
Will let you know the outcome Mr. Frog!

Re: Kent Run Round 4 Saturday 22nd August
Hmmm, I know there is no definite answer on this but roughly what time do you think the run will finish?
I've got to be back in Surrey for 9.30, but I would really like to make it along... Could possibly come along for at least the first half or something.

Re: Kent Run Round 4 Saturday 22nd August
ETA for breakfast is 09.00 (at our usual destination). You're welcome to do however much of the run you want. There are 3 points at which you will be able to peel off before the end and reach Surrey (M25 Cobham services) before your deadline.

Re: Kent Run Round 4 Saturday 22nd August
Perfect, at least that way I can still do most of the run. I'll peel off early in that case and just miss breakfast at the end. I'll await the usual instructionsTonyleFrog wrote:ETA for breakfast is 09.00 (at our usual destination). You're welcome to do however much of the run you want.

List updated. Confirmation re the date change still awaited from:
- GreatWhite

Chop chop guys or you won't be getting a PM with start location and route details. The final deadline for sending these is midday tomorrow (Friday) so if you haven't posted here before then you risk missing out!
