Big Up Nick @ Performance Ford! (Brunters)
As a few of ya know me & dans went to brunters with PF yesterday! Had a very good day & was lovely weather(wish I took me hayfever stuff though 
)
I was happy with the times I got(noI cant tell u what they r
) espically with the fooked budget tyres I was runnin! & the fact I ran the car in the same condition it is on the road(as in all the system etc still in) we did about 6-8 runs each & this was the 1st time either of us had done any form of proper launching & timing so takenin everythin in2 ocnsideration I am very happy with my times & hope with better tyres & being @ the pod & a bit more practice I should improve! Grip was obviously a problem & the old girl was still spinnin in 3rd sometimes 4th!
Big thanx to Nick @ PF who organised it all! Bit pissed off @ brunters as nick had booked the whole straight so we could gof or some top end but brunters informed him when we got there that theold bill were doin some testing & had ˝ the corse so we were bumped & could attempt any top speed runs L
Both cars were 100% working when they left brnters aswell!
which I don’t think we expected! Lmao
Oh & I think the times I put sdown would b good enough to put me in the TOTB team!
to bad aye! lmfao!
more pics will follow from sam & dan I am sure!

Big thanks to Nick for sorting a top day out, really enjoyed my first (and hopefully not last) day out at brunters!
Perfect day as ragards to the weather, nice and sunny but not too hot Although I am rather pink this morning 
This was gonna be my first attempt at doing proper launches so I wasn't expecting anything special in terms of times but I was quite content with enjoying the oppertunity to take the car for a blast and not have to worry about hitting anything
Depsite being my first time doing runs, bloddy hell its hard work getting it right! (which i never did lol)...too much power and you just get burnt clutch with loads of wheel spin... too little power and it bogs down into the tarmac. Fair play to anyone that can launch a car and get megga times By the end I was able to do some quite good times very consistantly depsite restricking myself to 17psi (peak) and 13 psi (held) (i cant wait for cossie management 
). The most enjoyable one was when I hit the limiter in 3rd at 90 +, I could feel the heat from the flame inside the car
Anyway, class day......thanks for asking me Lewis
