sorry to hear that Jez, i'll ensure we are even more strong worded on that point in future. I'd be happy to pay your windscreen excess.

Thats very kind Craig but not necessary. I have the feeling the cars going to be out of action for the summer. I'll get a screen from a yard as the insurance companys do seem to still refer to the last widscreen replacement as a non fault claim and as I have to insure 8 cars I don't want to give them an excuse to up the premiums.
Thankfully I still have the GT2 to play in at Vmax ( although its a little on the slow side)

[CraigVmax]

you're going to hate slumming it like that

Or I could bring Mental Betty

Thanks for a great day Craig. Hope you liked the smoke screen courtesy of my brother after I let him have a go. As we waited for emergency crew in silence he just said "oh f*ck, I'm sorry!" Still looking forward to the next one

[CraigVmax]

We shall see. I think the engine is probably toast so time to build something even better. It's those guys with the V12 mercs I feel sorry for. Repairing one of those is going to hurt!

I have a pic that the TVR boys would kill for, it was mercedes sponsored by the AA at one stage

Looked to be a great day out! Is it gopro footage?

It was a GoPro though not the very latest version - the wide angle is great for a lot of these shots

There could be a heli involved as well next time if the vibes can be sorted out

Id lke to echo the thanks for a great day. Was well pleased with the Maloos performance. After the 2 failures above, i decided to quit while i was ahead!

Will be back with more at some stage im sure

[CraigVmax]

Did it really do 175mph????

[SimNugget]

That Maloo looked a class motor, great colour too.

Well done for having the kahunas to buy it!

Better than ever (after blowing her engine at Vmax too )

[CraigVmax]

Great day, wanted to do vmax for a while so really happy that it finally happen. I thought the car had 190+ in it and I'm glad it proved me right lol. I think may have a little more with a better exit out that corner and more ice

[CraigVmax]

Yours was a bloody beast and I don't say that lightly....ever

Good to meet you Paul, major quick E55 you have, and you have taught me something! I am now going to
upgrade my 'ICE'. Obviously the better quality 'sounds' make the car happier and therefore will go faster.
