Scorching hot day. The tyres were so knackered that when I drove to get them replaced they produced sparks when I set off briskly as the metal wire reinforcing in the carcass was sticking out. The guy at the tyre depot gave me a right lecture

just goes to show the respect your due mate ! Pick any saloon car c/ship and compare your times and you'd need a bigger trophy cabinet !!

you coming out with the bARC then , go to www.rodbirley.com and download the regs for the year .

my merc has done 1.12 sec in 2004 with rouse driving, on the harest compound slicks they can supply,

same spec as it is now,

doing donnington in august for 2hr brit car race so will see how close to this we can get,

its not all about power!!

any big power car can be fast in a straight line,

but my merc is 385 bhp max and did the times with 365 bhp,

the more corners the faster it will be,

brands hatch indi is a good guide for cornering with only one small ish straight merc does has done that in 47 sec
