Another top day out and another well organised event from Craig, Greg and others, well done fellas and to get Tiff and the film crew along was top stuff....even though I got a little put off when being interviewed, hopefully styled it out OK

Considering it was bloody cold and an early start, I didn't stop laughing and smiling all day, like others have said, it's the peeps that makes this event not just the cars, and top peeps they are all too. Good to see some of you again and getting to meet some more PH'ers.

Glad the exhaust mods were done in time, dramatically compliments the TUBI, made the ENZO up west on Sat night sound poor ...Can't wait to hear Bebbesen's video clip at the edge of the runway going full whack ....Thanks to everyone for the comforting words when I thought my Gearbox/Clutch had decided to depart the car!!!!, shame cos was just bout to give RODS Turbo a pasting ...everything seems OK now thank god....managed a respectable but gentle 170 on my last run home.

BTW, Craig? Shall we call the next one [VMAX8-A Porkers Day Out] ..?????

Good stuff boys and girls and some really impressive motor vehicles....T


P.S. Muncher, that spin off was funny man, thanks for giving me the best view in the house..

Nice to meet you.

As said in another post, surely a little old T350 shouldn't out brake a 360 ?

Sounded good though, as it unfortunatley went past on the straight.

......yeah good to meet you too fella. OK OK, so I was taking it easy on the brakes and went straight on, sometimes!!..but surely there can't be that much acceleration difference between a heavy 360 and a super light TVR T350???? Surely not???? ....Got ya back....T.

I was suprised how the car kept up with the exotica until 80ish, in certain instances a bit more.

Once it hit, 120-130 though it seemed as if I'd selected reverse by accident.
