Sunday 1st september

saturday 19th october ( strip open 9am till 9pm so dark runs to be had)

Yep although he f*cked up his start, but winnings winning, inch or a mile iirc.

I gave what's his name in the Skyline a run for his money too,
took him the whole 1/4 mile to catch me, only did me by a car length at the line.

I've never beaten anyone on track - I took my 1.4 purple Corsa B years ago and got thrashed on each of my 3 runs haha!

It was so cold that day!
I've been to Canada skiing when it was -28 but this felt colder! I wore a few layers too and my thick Woolley jacket.
I was cold to the bone literally, it took ages to get warm afterwards. Heaters on full the lot in the car and that didn't work :(

Way to hot only managed 14.9@93mph stock car

What's the date chosen for this then? I'll probably head down but I won't run. It's not my thing really (boring I know)

Don't be a girl, £30 to go head to head with your mates all day,
sounds like a good f*cking laugh to me.

Yes it's not a proper track day, but it's a cheap day out with the lads blasting cars,
what's not to like?
