People from the original 30 will get to run first- if they don't turn up then the people in the reserves can go on.

remember a max of 30 runners on the day - hope everyone understands this =; :wink:


whats the list like? ie, how many reverses wona go on?
oh, is there any peeps to challenge mark and mike this time? the fella with the white 2 was pretty close i remember.


i was gonna be the main challenger (should've been around 400bhp) but my cars off for a rebuild since it lost compression in cylinder 2

Frank,
Jim (westham) has arranged for the Norfolk n good boys to meet at 8.30 ish in Norwich for our convoy down, so we'll all be arriving after 9.30 but hopefully before 10.30.
He'll be along soon I'm sure with any more info on our arrival, save some numbers for us!

I'm really looking forward to it, CC install since last run at 293hp, and hopefully unichip going in on monday.

regards
Andy (sidewinder on list)

Frank,

I'll be along - probably in my Rusty ole Mk1 though. I'll put her on the rollers just to see how she's doing - 120bhp would be nice given all the abuse she's had in the last year on track.

I'll bring the video camera and tripod like last time to video those running on the rollers.

If anyone wants some IMOC stickers as well, PM me in advance and I'll bring them along to the event :)

Ben.

nothing major mate.

i'm not getting over 1/4 on the temp gauge at motorway speeds, goes back up to normal temp when i stop or drive on normal 30-40mph roads.

thought it was the thermostat, but bleed the coolant lastnight and it's almost normal - still dips abit on the motorway.

gonna bleed it again when i get back from work in the morning and see how it goes \:D/

Nice one!!! I can get to see yer wheels in the flesh!!! Am loving the graphite centres! Yeh, I thought it would be cool to see others rag it on the RR and listen to the "talk" on their cars and be an educational experience too! COZ I know nothing about Turbo cars and find it easier to pick up stuff first hand!

Will be god to meet up with yer Jim!!

See ya At Thurrock! :lol: !
