121 Fiesta ST AaronM3

Although to be fair we started after bottom bend once we'd wrapped up photography down there. Would have been 122 for sure wink
We didn't fold the mirrors in either... or fold down the back seats... ;-)

Book figure is 129mph.

Great day, again, many thanks Craig. Must have been solid air at the end of the runway, can't think of any other reason for my 151mph max this time against 162 last time - remapped silver B5 S4 (another one that didn't have 650 bhp!)
Cheers

Thanks to Craig and eveyone involved in organising the day again. We had an amazing time as always, but I seem to spent more and more time watching and chatting every event that goes by!

Thanks to Leon, Simon, Andy (in Craig's car) and Matt for the rides. Where else can one experience an RT12, LP640, RS6 and F430 along with friendly faces? Quality cars and quality guys all.

Regards

Sam

ps GT3 clocked 172 and Craig I LOVE your 911!

I thought it was more of a cross wind, judging by the windsock located after the lights.

Any chance a mod (dazren?) can add the Lucas B5 RS4's speed of 191 to the opening post? Awesome bang for buck fella. clap

I may be slightly biased.

In the interest of complete accuracy, my speed should be 176, as measured by the DL1.

Thanks
