Would love to have a look round all the Mk1+2 Escorts etc etc
Also wouldn't mind having a blast down the track as i haven't been to pod Since August last year

Like watching all the fast old skool stuff
Might bite the bullet and go
Remember at a Ford Sport weekend there was a Mk2 blue escort with a Karl engine etc etc had a GT series blower and i think about 600ish bhp.. Had some slicks on the back and think ran 10's
One particular run looked like something was wrong as he was changing gears quite slowly Then see him in the pits and he was go agreesive (sp?) going from 1st into 2nd that he snapped the gearstick have way down What a fuckin animal!

that'd be terry davies. quality motor & driver.
I'll be there.. camping overnight beforehand with the turbosport lot so expect i'll be staggering around ruined on sunday. if i'm not too bad i might even have acrack on the strip in my mate's B.R.E. nova which should be worth a laugh.

if the weather is anything like it was last week, i wouldnt suggest to anyone to camp in the field by the start line, as it was tottally fucked
best option was the other one at the end of the strip, which was atleast flat
