[i]I can lend you ten quid[/i]

well if we get half the members to donate £10 we can buy it as a club car.........obviously as i have a race license i would have to look after it....and drive it etc etc

[i]Excellent idea

Say if 600 members each put in say 20 quid then the club would have its own track car[/i]

id cough up £2000

[i]Then that would leave 500 members to chuck in 20 quid each or

200 members to bung in 50 quid each[/i]

This weeks autosport has 2 ex altezza touring cars (tsport cars from new zealand). 2L, 250hp @ 13:1 compression. spboyce@toyota.co.nz

cheques wont be cashed till the amount is raised.if theres a shortfall i'll make it up

Envelopes should be marked [b]'Save Mat's Sanity Fund'[/b]

If it's going to be a club car, does that mean Team Lexus will be emblazend down the side???

yes, the club will be all over it.....

plus i would for a very small fee alow the club sponsers to place banners on the car, mostly to help with general running....i.e fuel

Sounds like a wicked idea, I think we should do the same a TOC buy a mint Supra Twin Turbo make a few mods and hire Brands Hatch out for the day.

mat,

Does it have Air con???

should have the names of all the folks who donate money on it too
should add a few pounds

i doubt it........but then, as im starting to think.

true speed freaks dont need aircon

Well, for the last two WRC rallies, the 206 has had air con fitted.... and they have lost at least 2 cars in each rally...

Perhaps we should invite the TOC boys to join in too...

Great idea. I need a new bathroom and I reckon it's going to cost about £1500. Any sponsors? All contributors will of course be able to use the loo if they find themselves caught short in the Bristol area! Sounds nasty
