Welcome cap'n Zep wavey

Thanks Mr Z.

Meant to remind you about the Xmas rally stages at Pembrey by the way, but puking kids meant that I wasn't sure I'd be there myself until that morning.

Bloody cold but many Mk2 Escorts at varying degrees of sidewaysiness made up for that.

Richard's Brother? I was talking to him in the white collar boxing and he stated that his younger brother had an RS4 running Lamborghini (I assume Gallardo) brakes? Surely the same guy?

I went to school with Richard.

Yes i am, thats random!

Which school did you go to? Feel free to PM me to keep this thread on topic!

last time I was at Pembrey (last years xmas stages) I had the squits and had to visit the loo every 5 mins or risk pooping myself frown

Not as bad as one of my mates driving his Mk 1. Sucked a retainer off the air box into the head and bent valves, cracked the head, killed a piston. New Pinto pleeeeease.

Cefn Saeson, same year as your brother.

Your brother will know who I am if you mention my car history, here though it's cloak & dagger stuff, you never know who's lurking! smile

My only car is a Hillman Imp, used daily, always going wrong, but luckily rarely costing me serious dollar:

Love the 9000's (my mate has just sold his one with 360hp) why you breaking it?

Thanks! Yeah they're a good car...has caught a LOT of more expensive/exotic stuff out with the GT30 fitted!!! nuts

Would your mate be Ad? wink

Just needed too much money spent on it to sort the rust and it really needed a good respray mate. Properly gutted as I wanted to take this one to around 650bhp over this year with further mods (Holset Super HX40/bigger cams etc) crycrycry ...would have been a bit of a beast...Super40's meant to be awesome beer

Will have a slightly less ambitious plan for the 9-3 and just keep it around 350 (ish) with a Hybrid TD04 and a few other bits salvaged off the 9000. Was going to re-use my 3076 and get it above 500....but will keep it nice and responsive below a ton instead.

Haha I see now!

Still, looking down to the seafront from the right like in this photo it's very similar, same colour scheme and everything.

Haha cheers!
She's alright I guess, needs some (read alot of )work but it'll get there eventually. In the mean time I'll just keep using it and driving it!

Generally around Bridgend and Cardiff, let me know if you see me. Terrible picture but:

Can't miss the toxicated smiley on the back! Also the green Clio in my profile should be making an appearance soon.
