I have now secured some top class timing gear and a local venue for a day of testing. Cost should be about a tenner for the day and as many runs as you like. Should happen in the next few weeks.

Anyone interested?

Ceri,

I am definately up for this. Where's the venue?

I am away on hols for a week from Sat. 11th May to Sat. 18th May, so if it could not be during that time I'd be well happy m8

Have you contacted any other car clubs etc. for interest? Like we spoke before, I have contacts with the West Wales RSOC, so if u need me to have a word let me know m8.

Dave (gettin a bit fast and furious know ya'know LOL )

CP, I'd be interested....same questions as Dave (when, where...)

If you were going to invite other Welsh car clubs aswell, then I'm sure the Vauxhall Sports Car Club would be really grateful of such an offer.....(used to be a member)...

If memory servs, Ceri did 0-60 in 3.97 seconds the scoobies did around 5.6, they weren't trying hard enough I think!!

Car of the day has to be the big mustang, it did 0-60 in 8.6 seconds with the left tyre lit up all the way down the runway!!

Actually Ceri did 3.97 sec 0-50, did'nt reach 60. He said that his time to 60 would be the same as last time he tested it approx 4.8-9 secs
So do'nt get out and start changing your cars to Evos.

If any ones interested he's selling the Evo 5, he needs a bigger car for the family.

that was me in the silver scooby and my two cousins in the other
one's, it was a good day only done one run at 5.6, but did not
get a perfect start... so i think i could have done better, if
i did not have to go early....
