Cheers mate, much appreciated. The bloke whos doing my sills, floor pans etc wasnt sure. Ive put a post on MC aswell so hope i get some response.

I must get a blue book!

End of the day there's not point having some fitted then having to change them if i decide to do some competition work!

They've got enough bolt holes in as its been in a race car already, but obviously the plates stayed in the car, he went to mulitpoint instead.

Much appreciated, you going to be very drunk at avon park with all the people that owe you a beer!! *smiley*

The blue book quotes minimum 3mm thickness and at least 120 sq cm as you thought. (section Q1.2.2)

Don't bother buying Wil a beer he won't drink before a race.

Yep, spot on.

Let it be known that I wil very likely be having beers on Saturday night. It is generally true that the night before a race I don't drink, but I think I can cope with straight lines with a hangover.
