Ok guys,

having spent a long time trying to come up with a date for us to point our respective exotica down that 2 mile straight and press the loud pedal until we run out of runway I think I have.....

OK, I know its a little while away but its looking like Sunday Oct 12th is the day. However, at least that will give some of you time to perform some mental modifications (Derestrictor!) and for some jolly banter to take place here.

Pricewise, as before will be based around numbers. last time I believe I estimated between £150 and £175 for about 6 runs. It worked out that there was a potential minimum of 10 runs and cost was £150. So I'd guess about the same but as always I'm negotiating discounts where possible.

Please drop me an email through my profile. Some of you have contacted me already, you will take priority initially.

All the best chums.

Any drivers rather than poseurs around here?

PS - Excluding Tony and Jason because they have previously demonstrated they are both insane drivers.

Excellent stuff; bit of a shame you had to ditch Crewe's missile, though; the concept of a Turbo R bludgeoning up to it's limiter on the straight would have been a sight for sore eyes!

Cheers

That's one thing it did extremely well - FAST in a straight line! The twisty stuff at speed was a little more "intersting" shall we say.....

... it would seem rude not to take you up on your offer. See you in October.
