Indeed! Reminds me of the last run we had down to Wilton or the Scone in 60 Seconds run I think it was...

I remember pulling off into a side road as I had lost touch with the first pack which flew into the distance, span round to latch onto the next bunch & the immense sound, noise & sight of these stupidly varied range of cars all popping & buzzing away & the smell of fuel being burnt as they rumbled past! A noise like no other!

Unforgettable! thumbupthumbup

To be honest - I have always assumed that F22 was pulled as it makes quite a roar, but I have never checked

Something to do at the weekend

You can tell when you go over 4000RPM the exhaust note will get louder, also see if you have a switch on the steering colum as some people had the fitted to control the exhaust valves.

Hi Karl,
No Drama so long as everyone is sensible the BiB are really hot around H/E at the moment with anti social behaviour in cars, and have been prolific in patrols.

This is from a genuine source, within those premise's.
