sorry there is a clash (I don't set the dates) - it is not a huge distance from Silverstone - would it be possible to combine the two? appreciate that is difficult if attending the saturday at Silverstone... Alasdair

Just to re-open this thread and let folks know that the Young Drivers' Day is taking place again this year: http://www.high-performance-course.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=13 If you are 26 years of age or less, hold a full driver’s licence and are interested, please register...

:) not sure that counts... the age cut off is slightly flexible, but I suspect that probably not much beyond the 26 years old! Alasdair

Just to promote this - there is still space on the day - it is a fantastic day and a great opportunity to drive with some very good drivers... Hope to be there with my Z3... Alasdair

This day is geared at a certain age, but ther are plenty of other options as well... If you want general lift of driving skills then look at IAM / RoSPA - both are very good... If it is handling skills you want to improve (off-road rather than just on-road) then Don Palmer is fantastic... Alasdair

Flexibility on age will vary year to year, but it is definitely aimed at those in their twenties and preferably 26 or younger :) Alasdair

thank you Alasdair

Thanks Tony, not sure how easy it will be to get a photo as the car is up on a ramp!, will see what I can do... The tilt sensor is a box (not in all Z3 cars) in a well to the left of the boot - it is a notorious problem as water can get into the boot and kill the sensor... The loom has wires...

I have asked this elsewhere, but not got an answer, so hoping someone on here might know / be able to take a photo... I have had the traditional water in boot > kill tilt sensor symptoms however, a small issue in putting in the replacement - we don't know the colours / order for the wires into...

That would be awesome - though perhaps dangerous to my bank account! we could compare it to a 3.0 litre with all new suspension (and an auto gear box!) Mr C. is a fantastic driver - highly skilled, but perhaps unorthodox at times - it takes a lot of skill to drive that way safely, but as he...

@Lee, glad you enjoyed it - I heard some positive comments about your driving :) There is a very simple process to doing the High Performance Course: http://www.high-performance-course.com/ There are two course managers - based in Wales & Midlands, so folks tend to contact the nearer... You...
