This was a Promo vid for Apex Trackdays , the owner of Apex asked me if he could put some cameras on me and use the footage , so obviously I agreed !!

Managed a sub 9 at the Ring with the standard LET turbo lump with 220 odd hp , not been since the new engine went in

Anything can get below top gears time FFS!

When I did it, my time would be 5th fastest diesel on BTG, so I was chuffed. Now, stop p!ssing on my fire.

My daily driver is a 3.0 cdti Signum which I would love to take !!

Looking forward to this. Car is at VX for warranty rear shockers replaced this Sat, then it's down at WP Mon 4th to Thu for a remap. So fingers crossed all goes well in time

To 30% of those attending, good luck with the gearbox/engine rebuilds. It would be 33% but I believe Araf has an auto now

Out of interest what is a remap costing from WP???

I'll be taking my HP Tuners logging kit there and my lap top just to tweak a few things throughout the first couple of runs. So if anyone wants to record their own personal run, etc then happy to sort it for you so you can see some of the info that is created on a WOT run, or idle for that matter!!!

Cheers

Is Gareth's new motor ready for WOT for 1 mile???? I'll be keen to see that thing run as I reckon it'll pull a decent number and wave the flag for us N/A boys!!!

But that changes what exactly?

I know the Ute has a lower terminal speed than our losing run from last year, so there's no point in me trying too hard. I'm quite excited by the proposed trophy enhancements.
