Leaving in a minute as it's a nice day and I want to do something car related. Anyone heading across?

Beat mt PB today but not by much, I need a standing 1/2 mile to put on a good show. I couldn't really plant it until 4th so will try again with some r888s.

To be honest the day wasn't that fun. I spent 4 hours in the que and got 4 runs in. The usual Santa Pod chavs were there with their barried corsas etc. A lot of the time you would see idiots bombing round the access road or through the paddock where people are walking.I'm surprised that the management seems to let this happen :o

I'm soooooo glad that they stay away from trackdays :roll:

I did 13.13@113.9

Well done James. Beating your PB is no mean feat let alone in February with your Kevlar Nankang Ditchfinder tyres :lol:

Post up your timing slip as and when you get a chance mate :thumb:

I thought they were only for cars that fall to pieces on hard launches :lol:

In all seriousness though, 30-130 would interest me :)

Funny you should say that, I had to remove some of the coram infield yesterday from inside my two lefthand tyres. The lads at the tyre place opposite quickfit in Yarmouth only wanted a drink for removing, cleaning and refitting the ditchfinders :-D

Pretty good terminal James.
Your 60ft time will obviously show that you have a traction problem :lol:
