:roll:

Apparently he didn't spend any real time at home las tnight, so didn't get them uploaded. He's promised to do it tonight. #-o

I'll get him to TXT me as soon as it's done and I'll either post the link here or PM it to you. Obviously, we're dead keen to see them too.

Thanks for the pic of our car on track - I just happen to be driving in that shot. I'm surprised the car's pointing the right way!!! :oops:

Cheers,
Rich.

Karen spent a good while sparring with one of the VW Funcup cars. Considering their spec, that seems really good!

"The cars involved in the Uniroyal Fun Cup are built to a single specification. The Beetle-style bodies sit on a tubular steel chassis powered by an 1800cc, 130bhp VW/Audi engine - mid-mounted for optimum balance. And they're quick too - weighing only 760kg, they have a superb power to weight ratio. Above all, safety is vitally important. That's why each car comes with an oversized roll cage, a five point driver's harness, a petrol tank that complies with standards set by the FIA and Uniroyal RainSport tyres that give excellent handling, especially in the wet."

They won't be lighteningly quick, about the same as a stock S1 elise. Easily quicker than a MK1 Na however.

What's that supposed to mean? :wink: :thumleft:

We haven't bought any yet. I was trying to send a link to Karen, but it just didn't work. Thanks to you two I'll send the one above and she can check them out. (No point trying at home, on 33k modem!).

Cheers,
Rich
