Ok guys,

having spent a long time trying to come up with a date for us to point our respective exotica down that 2 mile straight and press the loud pedal until we run out of runway I think I have.....

OK, I know its a little while away but its looking like Sunday Oct 12th is the day. However, at least that will give some of you time to perform some mental modifications (Derestrictor!) and for some jolly banter to take place here.

Pricewise, as before will be based around numbers. last time I believe I estimated between £150 and £175 for about 6 runs. It worked out that there was a potential minimum of 10 runs and cost was £150. So I'd guess about the same but as always I'm negotiating discounts where possible.

Please drop me an email through my profile. Some of you have contacted me already, you will take priority initially.

All the best chums.

Not enough, about 460, but the engine is the same as the GT2, so we should get a lot more just off the chip, at least thats what I've been told

Well unless Jaydee brings something suitable with, ooh, about 627 bhp and/or British Leyland move their unsold fleet at the runway's finish zone, that could be tricky.

211 has been achieved by Autocar in an F1 at Brunters, back in 1994.

(See, I'm already wimping out...)

Realistically I think it would require new parts, but looking at the kits about, the car has all the bits for 530bhp bar the chip (550 with bigger intercooler)
