Also, all top speed runs will need to be carried out with a crash-helmet on.
Will see if i can get the car done for this, as its all run in now just waiting on parts

It's Datron kit, Euan. Bruce Dunn will be doing it (he times the bikes for Performance Bikes etc) plus Renton's bringing Redline's kit.

Sorry Mike.


as text, my engines out and in bit's, and due to it needing more than a crank and rod, i'm gonna rebuild it,
And even if i got it back in the car, its not MoT'd,taxed or insured to do the running in miles in time.
So i'm another fall out.
But once i have it back in and sorted, i should of done a few new times, so might be able to come along any how to TOTB.

But as i've booked the day off work, i'll being bringing my XR2t on its new spec to contend for the FWD boys.

I did, but he hasn't posted, so I'm not sure who you mean?

If he has a suitably fast Cossie, then he is welcome to attend .

I hear the fwd team has withdrawn & have heard nothing about the Cosworth team has that suffered the same fate, didnt hear anything earth shattering from the qualifiers so has a team been picked Mike, think the final entry date is end of the month.
