Got 15s on now, and about 30bhp more.. so should be fun!

What kind of weight is it?

I hope so


The supercharged one will be a group up will it?

Theres one car I'd watch out for though, will be doing low 14s in our glass, it's a 106 rally with a VTS engine!


Might see you there Craigy boy.

Noooo don't worry. Not my thing at all, I really just dont get the point of it all sorry

If they put a cone at the end and you then had to handbrake round it and come back down and slalom through some cones, over a blind crest/jump, through a watersplash whilst narrowly skirting the edge of the tree line I might just be interested lol

Have a good day

I find it a little boring to watch, but it's ok for a day out to compare the car I suppose!
