Hi everyone,
I've been asked to go on a track day with work at Bedford in November, and after recent incidents with my car I haven't had the chance to get the timing chain and tensioner replaced and I am now back to uni using the car for commuting so can't really be without it.

So the car has full service history but at 100k miles will it be ok to do a track day with? I am quite paranoid about taking it on a track day as it is due to be checked/replaced and don't want it to cause any damage.

Thanks
Adam

Long time ago I had and Ep3 for 220k kilometers in[…]
