The Lancer-Evo guys are having a get-together.
Do join in if you can make it/fancy it.

Yeah I thought it was good too. The way your car gets away from mine is fantastic. I had a ride in one at vmax, got up to 159 on the straight. Sounds amazing.

Might give the car a quick once over in the morning to make it presentable.

Is there a postcode for the peacock?

The CSLs are pretty quick, especially on-cam. I am enjoying the car very much and as you say, the sound is addictive. (This one has been de-limited so will do about 180 mph, given room.)

The car was only set for the 3rd fastest gearchanges the other night and i was changing up 500 rpm shy of maximum power.
You really need daylight and a more open road to really give it the lot!

Yeah, well obviously the differential on any throttle will still eat the Clio. Definately having an M3 next.

Won't be there Tuesday, back in Leeds.

I literally got to the Peacock at 1.23 or something. Must have literally just missed you.

Aye, i thought maybe something had held you up or sent you elsewhere!
The people that did turn up were good too meet.

I was reminded just what excellent value a used Lancer Evo can be if you want bangs-per-buck. One fella i spoke to has 500 bhp for only £30K including car/work.
