Weather does not look good for the weekend i must admit...

Just had a huge thunderstorm here that knocked out 12k + Customers...

[Phoenix Viper]

Just think of all that overtime Bob.

[Gixer]

I'm off to Santapod first thing in the morning. Weather forecast looks ok but we all know Santapod is a rain magnet

There had better be enough dry weather for at least a few runs as I'm going to Elvington from Inverness - not exactly just round the corner!!

I hope we get some runs, I've been all day making a whole new exhaust system to make the sound db! Just hope the engine holds together!

Good luck Nad, hope you can make the weekend work while after all the hard work. I guess it doen't need me to tell you all that Sat looks fine Sun looks pant! I don't think I'd fancy a 200+ blast in the wet!

Just got back ..........

GREAT WEEKEND......Off to bed

[Gixer]

Yeah I think he was having traction problems as I beat him off the line with my lack of traction.....then he came tearing past me!!!! Bloody loud as he came past I dont know what it is with SantaPod, at Shakey I run mid 12's but at Santapod I always muck up getting off the line. Shame I missed you.

I had a brown trousers moment when the hood jumped up totally obscuring my view about 3/4 way down the strip. Not pleasant. But I still got 12.3sec on that run (1.8sec 60ft) and with a terminal speed of only 95mpg (due to hitting the brakes instinctively when the hood came up). I'd love to know what time my car would have got had it not been for my bodywork malfunction!!

Wow! And they say the Viper isn't eco friendly? If you get that on the track, what do you get on the motorway?
