Ha, thanks :) I feel I was doing pretty well in being the fastest thing in my sessions until my crank pulley decided it'd had enough! Typical as I've been meaning to change it for about 2 weeks. but I've just not had the time to do anything other than customers cars.

We had a long conversation about that car. I thought it looked cheap, my mate was of the same train of thought as you.

I thought the seats were naff, the front calipers looked dreadful and the chrome bits at the front were naff too. I love Jags but I was very not impressed with that one. :(

I have to say, I dind't have a proper good look at it. From a passing view, it looked awesome, Saw it leaving too.

I wouldn't buy one, but that doesn't mean I don't like it :)

Your diesel looked good today too! Apart from a puff of the black stuff as you were exiting Camp, you'd never know it was a diesel. Was as quiet as a kitten round there!

We did wonder why you pulled off slowly towards the end of your session. You were by far the fastest in the session i watch you going round in.

Does anyone know what happened to the Monaco Blue with writing on the rear quarter?

Cheers dude.

I expect the smoke was due to it running without the map sensor, first session I was getting fuel cut/limp mode at high rpm due to the s**t map on it.

Apparently the noise tester didn't even bother testing it (I was in a briefing, mate did it for me). Abused the f**k out of it all day and it kept coming back for more.

Watching the GTR going round is strange. I saw it a couple of times, it would enter the corner with a fair amount of roll from the body but during the corner it would just stay in the same shape like it was loaded up on one side like it is in the picture. Then when exiting the corner it would flatten straight out and just go. Everything else you could see the weight transfer over before getting it dead straight. Must be some pretty fancy suspension they have !

Awesome :)

The blue one didn't do his wheel nuts up. And then the drivers side front make a bid for freedom

I did a 1.28 wet on road tyres before the bottom pulley started playing funny c**ts.

That GTR was pretty awesome, no fuss just got the power down and disappeared.

The Jag XFRS looks f**k ugly, but it's a shame they weren't starting it because they sound f**king biblical.

Mk2 Escorts drifting and giving it f**k FTW though.

You clearly didn't look close enough, it has it's marks and that, was mainly let down by it's wheels which were ment to refurbed last week but couldn't get them done in time.

But thanks, was nice to see more PH1's about, hopefully catch some of you at the next one :)

I pointed that out to a mate. Lovely looking thing.

That Carlton, did it have a volvo front end?? It certainly wasn't a Vauxhall one. And whatever engine it had, it went like stink!!
