Dates are as above, I won't be at Brands this year but will do most of the rest all being well.

I will get a build thread up for my GTi also.

MG Cup’s first round is next month down at Brands Hatch.

I should be going to it if you fancy meeting up. I could do with a kick myself :D

P.s - I’m travelling down from Birmingham

Definitely won't be ready to compete in the first round but I will be going down there to watch and collect my t-shirt etc because someone is using Morgan shorts 216 so want to go down and see how it fairs against all the 160's
