GR, quote : "If I was buying a second-hand car, I would rather buy my car than Nick Reads or one of the Bens cars! My mileage, although always very low, will have been driven much more carefully than the lads cars and surely my engine would keep in a better condition too." The 172 engine is...

I remember seeing both of you shaking ! The first go I was cacking it ! I agree with everything you said CB, I have definitely got the bug now anyway ! Track day next I think ! Try and come to the next meet dash, you will love it and I wanna c that V6 ! :D

It is an interesting one dash. I have to admit that I was not bothered before I went to York but now I love it, I am going against myself, it did not bother me when I lost to the Saxo even, just wanted to get the lowest time for me. I am very content with driving on the road, I would sell the...

Just click on the link and it should open up the directory lisitng in a new window, works for me anyway ! Actually, the site has been deleted it looks like, maybe Matt can host them somewhere else ? des, I know mate ! Missed gear change hurt me bad ! I thought the reaction time counted ...

Two blueberry muffins ? You gotta be crazy ! You sure they didnt put a V6 engine in his car by mistake ? ;) Well, they were saying at York that a perfect reaction is .500 and we were getting 1.1s up to 1.3s so there is a lot of room for improvement I would say ! That is what I like about it...

I think you may be right, what would you call a reasonable time then ? High 14s ? It did ! Sounds as good as it goes !

I did that against you, I was trying to line up the wheels and then all of a sudden it went green ! ha ha ! TimOs car looks sooooooooooooo quick on the video ! I have first hand experience of how quick it actually is, what a beast ! I did have a great start against the Saxo, fooked it up...

Good to see you back Ivan ! I watched my mpg against the Saxo and I cannot believe I threw away so much of a lead on a missed gear change ! Not that the Saxo had a very good run mind but still, should have been much better ! Great stuff Matt, the video should be winging its way to you anyway !

Cheers for that Mike, I may well do that, I will let you know soon as ! Thanks very much.

Fair enough des, all this travelling can get expensive ! I am tempted to come up to Donny to watch, want to see what it is like before I throw my hat in the ring !

Nick, I agree, it is all about the progression you make, I am going to get low 15s next time out I hope ! Sooooo, who is up for more 1/4 miling before the end of the year ? Where is the best place apart from York ?

Santa Pod is off J15/16 of the M1 so it is just as far away for me as York it looks like ! I am not sure about other venues, obviously the closer the better for me. greeper, I would recommend it without doubt, forget the travelling, the 172 makes that fun ! It took me 7 hours to get home...
