There are quite a few of us sprinting at Debden and also, a good number going to the BTCC at Snetterton so that's them spoken for :)

Have fun. Perhaps you could do a write up of the event and maybe you'll get more people attending next time?

Good luck

was good day nice weather etc loads of cars mostly tuned vws

Had quite a few good races inc giving a cerbera a pasting :)

Really struggled for grip on the concrete though managed a best time of 13.3sec @ 115mph (did get 118mph in the morning when the air was cooler) :o was well chuffed with that

would have taken some pics but my misses gave me the camera with flat batteries :oops:

Was that in the Rover Scott? The terminals indicate a power of around 350-400bhp at the flywheel??

yep in the rover :grin: I am hoping it might be close to 350bhp now, just got to get traction now - tbh though even the rear wheel drive boys couldn't put the power down on the concrete surface!
