Would be helpful if you could email me at: [email protected] with your vehicle specs and I will add you to the running list.

All the best

Well another excellent morning, and somed dammed amazing results, superb result from Jays Supra, which by the way sounded awesome,,,,,,,even though we did have to get 5 bodies to hold it on the rollers :-)


Thanks to everyone who turned up. Macdonalds Racing spoke to me after and said they would like to offer us a further discount as we were not recognised as regular members, really nice of them, and will certainly be taking up the offer Mid Jan, after all them christmas pressies are installed :-)

JJ Make sure Crank Killer is fit for this one ;-)

Once again thanks to all attended, both spectators and participants. =D> =D> =D> =D>

Great day out that Graeme, well done for organising it all, gonna try & get my HKS Ti Racing zorst & double decat on then before the next one, that's if the rollers can take it :D

Great results for yours too Graeme, that torque figure was magnificent,

Good to see some faces from the past there, Steve, Graeme S & Lee, and the usual ugly mugs (Tony & John in particular 8) ), and great to see loads of new faces too (sorry I couldn't find that knock sensor Degs :oops: ).

Look forward to the next one
