Default Croft - awesome weekend - lots of pics (more on pg 2)

First of all, quick apology for the extent to which these pictures focus around the two evo's, but as I travelled up with them I was mainly taking pictures of them.

Secondly, massive thanks to Dingy and the other organisers, what a fcuking awesome weekend!

Thirdly, editing them via MSPaint as not got photoshop on my work laptop and uploading while doing 100mph down the M5 on my mobile, so bear with me with the errors, i'll sort them out properly tomorrow night as im sure some of it wont work first time uploading etc.

it is low comp,polished and ported head,long studded.

Karl mapped it Thursday but could not do it to its full potential because of fuel supply,it was not getting enough and the pressure was low so it had to be set at a safe boost limit,its now booked in for a swirl pot,additional pump etc...then it can be done to get a bit more from it.

siggy....

thanks Bullet and Col.
