Yeah Mel I get around a bit. Marc said you were having fun organising interclub teams. I am hanging to drive my new beastie. I have 9 days until scrutineering and it is still being tuned and then it needs some more suspension fine tuning. That will leave me probably just under a week to get it up to scratch for scrutineering and get some serious seat time in it. Doh! Hope my nav is up to scratch.

Anyway, he's just re-welded it back, let's start a poll to see how long it'll last before it breaks again...

Then final check and prep, and it's ALL GO FOR TOMORROW!!!

 

Sad news, Mick Jones in the STi has pulled out, car not ready :) That should make the event even more interesting, who's going to win? A big favourite is Harry in his Datto1200, but then there's also Redwarf and then there's the car Mel's navigating in (turbo Swift) that is blindingly quick... And there's the Hillman Hunter always seems to do very well... And then ther's that turbo Fiat 131 that pulled like 205hp at the same dyno I pulled my 69 from...
