Taken off a Metro site i am on. His engine may be up for sale. Imagine my car with another 80bhp!!
He takes a R33 early on and catches up with an Evo at the untill a Laguna does not let him in on an overtake.

Yes it is, but it is a top spec forged race engine with throttle bodies etc. I can have it for

That is impressive and sounds sweet. On the start/ finish straight you can clearly see the marshalls waving a flag to inform the laguna off faster vehicles. Shame that.

Cracking video that.

The only thing concerning me is the cones on the opening of the video. Running cones on a track day seems barmy, it'd be altering the circuit licence. We suggested this once for some day last year and got ripped apart for considering it!

What a waste of money! - I think the end served him right for assuming that he had the speed to push his way in .. very good and nippy but still a waste of cash!.

Yes, not really sure what the cones are for. Perhaps to stop late overtaking into the bends or to help show the smoothest line. What was your idea with the cones then James?
