Alot of nice cars to add to my wish list now :

205 T16
Sierra Cossy
Escort Cossy
Darrian

Watching the Collins MK2 Escort and Darrian going full chat around the circuit was entertaining to say the least.

Roll on performance day
Glad you enjoyed as you know it can be a hassle organising the tickets etc but once everyone enjoys and has a good day then it's all been worthwhile and a thank you goes a long way.

In retrospect I agree about the stand position it's just a pity we can't choose our neighbours, as there were quite a few chav chariots pretending to be Impreza's towards the end of the row.

It was on the rev limiter everytime I went into it lol , wasn't backing off until I got on or over the brow
Thats 168hp as its a standard engine , I can't wait for the new one which will be 240ish

The gearbox , suspension and brakes work very well , it just needs more power to finish it off now

Cheers Lee, it was a very good day and I'm glad you like the plate.

I'm the same as you burnt to a crisp, and wondering why I didn't take any protection (and not what Shaun was carrying either).

Definitely good brakes is a must if braking after the brow, most brake slightly before or just come of the gas to lose some speed.

Will the new engine be in for next weekend ? Had a good day up Epynt last month, trying to get up there next weekend for the Mewla.

Thanks Simon, I hope this will be the last iteration of any styling changes, I think I have got it just about right now.

The only drawback with the number plate is that being more distinctive is that it makes the car stand out. I know with an Impreza you do to a certain extent shout out 'Look at me' but a memorable number plate it can make people remember the car, good or bad time will tell.
