Re: My Mex ready for the Midland Speed Champ

Jason, that is very nice, just my cup'a tea!!

What spec is the engine, box, axle, brakes, suspension etc??? Interested as it looks similar to mine (period-ish modified)

Also whats the midland speed Champ? interested as im in the mids. Ive done curborough in the past and although small was good fun, i kept getting plenty of sideways

Actually my Avatar was taken coming out of the sweeping bend on full opposite lock!!!!!

I was gonna go to the RSOC central day at santa pod on the 22nd but this might be more fun to watch (maybe do??)
