Me and a friend of my (with the bleu 67 on the picture) where thinking to come over to the Snatterton circuit this coming spring or summer.
We have a Pro-touring club here in the Netherlands with about 20 active members and maybe there will be more cars coming over to have some fun.
Link PT club forum, sorry its in dutch :
The circuit at Snetterton has had the track extended so the surface is new and of good quaility and is quite fast , its a good circuit for bigger cars.I plan to go in the summer so i need to hurry up and start doing my brakes . Had a look at your PT forum and it looks like you have a good group of cars there , particularly like the granny nova brake upgrade . I shall need to learn some Dutch so that i can read more on the forum as it looks interesting, us brits are shamefully poor at other languages . Pete
Hi Pete, good to know about the track conditions and we are planning a trip this summer only need a date so you will be there also.
The nova tread is on Martins home page and its in english as wel. http://www.pro-touring.nl/

Iam hoping to have the car ready by early April so i will be up for trackdays after then . There,s nothing worse than having the summer arrive and the car is
still up on stands , i should do a build thread really . Pete
Still working on my car to ,changed engine and transmission for this coming season sb 350/richmond 5 speed coming out and sb Dart 400/TKO600 going in. Hoop to be ready in february
I have fitted a TKO600 with the 0.82 5th and its ok , its not perfect but feels like a tough gearbox and works good on track and i like it . It shifts quite well and i have not had the 2nd to 3 rd problem that other people have , it also weights a bit less than a T56 .Its a noisey gearbox and sounds like its got straight cut gears , also reverse can grind if you try a bang it in . Having used the 5 speed i think 6 gears are too many and i only use 5th on the fast straights when taking it easy . The Dart 400 sounds nice , plenty of grunt .
I have managed to adapt some BMW M5 brakes for the rear axle and it looks like a good setup . We in Europe dont have to many LS Camaro's to take rear brakes from but have loads of BMW around to rob parts from , when i have mounted to brakes i will put up some pictures .Pete
