Well done for the day, thanks to Eagle & Paddy for organising...oh and Lou for providing the reading material

Piccies......

















244.5bhp/281lb/ft...apparently running EXTREMELY rich!!

Nice day, nice tan, nice BBQ

Bish I'd never been on a RR and I really thought it was going to die there and then... but it held on and even gave Pete a little scare... So next time I am not running last, I will run first and at 4am!!

Thanks for the vids and pics!!

I am sure frog got some more to upload....

one more thing, it was SO big, all 6 wheels had them locking things on them and it was also held in place by a large conctrete block (which you can just make out in the bottom left hand corner)

i can just imagine it being fitted to something like a spitfire

lol @ the cars too clean. I spent AGES the week before trying to get it as mint as possible, and hope fully it paid off as Fast ford might want to feature it (hopefully!)

Emailed Charlie at the Rolling Road to ask him what M3's usually punt out, and he responded, along with this for you guys:

"Many thanks to all of the guys who came down on Sat. We very much enjoyed doing the days for such a friendly bunch of people."
