    I could keep up with it round 2/3 of the course, but the two long sections he broke away from me a fair bit!
    But considering his engine is 3 times bigger than mine, i wasnt exactly dissapointed

    Cheers mate, would sound better if the box was straight cut and sequential haha

    I have forged pistons and stage4 head on my kitchen table, hoping to
    Make 180horses, but
    On the other hand i want a
    Mk2 escort lol

    Cheers Richard for a great day. Only downside was the 4hr drive home - crappy M25 car park!

    Great to see some excellent cars - have got to say the 2 nts mk1's were works of art. Ceramic coating the whole exhaust was amazing.

    Good to meet you Graham. Your 106 Rallye was very well put together. Good luck with the engine build....

    it was a great day cheers rich, all your hard work paid off! and i think you had a fun yourself judging by the state off your rear tyres after the drift session, ha ha.
    i had a few enigine probs but got them all sorted in the end and when i was on the track it ran great.
    although my gearbox is making some funny winey noises now i made it home and cant wait for the next one!
    if it aint broke, break it!
