Edinburgh Race The Runway.....

[Pamplona2]

I have it from a reasonably informed source that this is scheduled to happen on the 1st of July, benefiting the same charities !
Bigger event than last year, with the runway involved stretching to 1800 metre's...

Cool.took aston DB7 last year and got cuffed. Will take cobra this time.

[Craigie]

Is it not the previous Thursday, the 24th June?
It would be so good to trace the owner of the Veyron that resides in Glasgow and invite them along....

[VetteG]

I could make it if it's the 24th, but not the 1st, I will wait on confirmation.

[Neil Allan]

I did this last year but I won't be doing it again for a number of reasons.

It's all for a very good cause and the efforts of the organisers are laudable.

I wouldn't want to discourage anyone from doing it but it just didn't float my boat.

The tour of the control tower and getting to drive a fire engine were the highlights of my day.

One word of warning though. If it's the same format as last year, anyone holding a MSA license should think twice.

Cheers,

Eric

With reference to your Cobra, what is a "Yankee short block"? Always interested in learning something new.

[Craigie]

Kiltie, willing to elaborate on your comments?

Sory mate i had to fit a short motor when the original motor blew. What should have come out was the 'small block' as opposed to your 'big block' Mine is a 5 litre ford unit. H

No actualy they are pretty good, it's just that a Chevvy in a Cobra is just so wrong (but probably not as wrong as a putting a V12 Jag in one).
