JohnD Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 I chatted to Roy at Croft - he's an Aussie, here for six months and has brought his car with him! See: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100017038478300 JOhn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danwedges Posted August 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 I made a passing comment and his wife mentioned something about it being more datsun than triumph did he elaborate on this or have I misheard something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnD Posted August 7, 2018 Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 Regret I didn't discuss his car in any detail. PM him, via his Fb page? John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danwedges Posted August 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2018 I'm not a member of Facebook otherwise I would have messaged him Reguardless it was a pleasure seeing his car and has tempted me to turn my own gt6 into a road track car and maybe attempt a couple of track days myself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clive Posted August 8, 2018 Report Share Posted August 8, 2018 Dan, you don't need much for a trackday, just a lwell put together car that doesn't leak and works correctly. And a helmet, though these can usually be hired/borrowed. The TR register organise several trackdays a year, all good value and they welcome our cars. I have done a few, and my young daughter has been along and driven my spitfire too. An ideal way to find out if that is the route you want to go down. If you want to know more, just ask. John is a racer, so he will know the routine, but requirements are much higher. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite likely that a fair bit of the rear end (diff, driveshafts etc) are Datsun 240Z. Agree with Clive on the TRR trackdays. Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gully Posted August 10, 2018 Report Share Posted August 10, 2018 I see on Facebook that Jigsaw Racing is looking after the car whilst it's over here. Gully Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
