Take you not gone up then Westlife? Unleash a raging 188bhp on Brunters, would have been rude!

I'm still in the grandad style Rover! Won't show you a pic! I need the money for my first house so there!

Who has gone up now mate? Is it all RS's qualifying today, or just RST's?

Just got back - early finish for me.

The downpipe from cossie turbo has cracked, car missing badly on boost
I only did the one run, semed pointless doing more. Drove back no problems. I'm not that fussed, it's an easy repair - just really shit timing. Could do with a little more time mapping, as it was all a rush job.

Andyhardys was doing low 14s when i left. Kaliber did a 4.09 to 60, quater in the 12's with 120 odd terminals.

JUst like to say thanks to Renton, Steve Lewis etc for organising/running it - all top people.

Big thanks to Lee at Fusion for helping me get the car ready at the last mintute too.

Rick.

Well, i could goto elvington/pod etc and submit some times from there yea. 16 sec quater, but had slowed down to about 70mph so there's more to come. I tried - and there will be other times
