Yes mate thats him, a good mate of mine.

There will be 3 maybe even 4 of us running big spec Zetec turbos on gas by Central day next year, so we're all having a good grudge match/bet about running the fastest as it is! Let alone the other 4 cars or so all running similar specs and aiming for simlilar times.


Just hope the bloody weather will be ok!

central day was wonderful hope it's the same next time i'm there, and by the sounds of all these big powered zetecs coming out to play we'll be spending most of central 10 waiting for the staff at the pod to pick all the cogs up or bits of shafts of the floor
