    The 64th Pomeroy Trophy

    I entered this and had a cracking day out with the GT86. The Toyota GB team put on good show bringing along their hospitality centre, some new demonstrators as well as a few added bonuses. To kick the day off there was sign on, scrutineering and the compulsory Pom luggage check. Luckily the seats fold down flat on the 86 which passed with ease but the MR2 boys struggled. Next up there were 3 competitive timed tests, a slalom, acceleration and braking test and finally a auto test. The cars entering included pretty much one or more of every model and year Toyota I can think of including Corolla, yaris, MR2, supra, celica and obviously my 86, an aero and even a Prius or 3! It was good fun and nice to do something competitive in the car with zero risks. Just before lunch all the competitors got the chance to drive 3 parade laps of the GP circuit which was great fun and an unexpected bonus to the day. Ive never had a huge appreciation for Silverstone but it is massive and very impressive in person. Whilst the Toyota event was going on the main Pomeroy Trophy was underway with some amazing machines pounding round the track from pre war classics to a howling Chevron race car and rally spec mk2 escort with gearing so low it was bouncing off the limiter on the straights. Afternoon session had the same 3 events as the morning giving a chance to push a little harder. All competitors were given a Gazoo Racing wolly hat and Vintage sports car club engraved tankard trophies, it's the taking part that counts 😛 if Toyota put on the same event next year I'd thoroughly recommend it, I might even enter the main Pomeroy Trophy for the different elements and the added seat time round Silverstone.

    Roll Cage

    Hello folks. Was wondering if anyone has a recommendation for a place to supply and fit a roll Cage. I want it to be MSA certified so it can be used for racing in the future. So if you have ever had one fitted where was it from and how much did it cost you? By the way this is not for my gt86 but another car. But I have seen a few caged cars on here and trust people's opinions. Any advice would be much appreciated thanks.

    Michelin PIlot Sport Cup 2 tyres

    I'll measure them tomorrow. My guess is about 4 mm.

    Hello to all!

    Greetings to the 86 world, I have had some monsters both road and track but the 86 is very different and very enjoyable. Coupled with a great club and forum you made a top choice 😀

    TD resonated centre pipe

    I have had it on for 5-6 weeks now, some days I love it but others it actually leaves my ears ringing (must be getting old) plus the other half doesn’t like it much. i think iv asked TD before about purchasing a mid pipe separately but think it was something like £250 I really don’t want to spend that much so I’m guessing it’ll be a lot cheaper to get a local exhaust place to weld a new resonator in but if someone wanted to buy the resonated mid pipe then i would be tempted to order the part from TD so just trying to weigh up my options as don’t want to spend £250 then get stuck with a mid pipe
