Every car I map it is a worry about maintenance, I keep telling them , check the oil level every session. I would hate to have a customer engine go bang, but there is not much I can do once its left.

not that I know of, Joe , certainly not if it was a Honda rice burner
do you think the banked section of track caused oil surge , and being such a high revving engine at risk more?

Just ordered a set of ZZRs
Need some M10 x 90mm 10.9 bolts for the toe links and need to fit the new HCB.
Think that's it before Zandvoort unless I try and get the cage in.
Although do I want to be heavier for Zandvoort.

Is that cause you're being nice or you don't trust your car?

Anyone on the ferry from Harwich on Wed night fancy stopping off somewhere on the way to Zandvoort so we don't just end up sitting in the beach bar watching Chill going for a swim?
Maybe, The Hague for example.
