that would explain why i couldn't see a thing all the may up the m1!! I couldn't figure out what had happened to it! i didn't know not to spray it on the window, all i was told was to spray and wipe, and i didn't even do that right!

there was no way i was going to embarrass myself up the strip so it was only fair to offer its back seat to help james in his efforts! it is after all a Slow SDI!

I had a good time yesterday - you had all disappeared when I made off though! I left after Fireforce had made its run and the rain came again. Torrential rain at times on the way home, really not nice at all! To look at my car now you would not believe that it was polished and gleaming on Saturday afternoon :(

Oh well. Good show, good company, roll on the next one! 8)

Si didn't go down the 1/4 mile Tim.

I think he might have been a little worried about the gearbox holding up! :wink:

Perhaps the guy who blew his R32 gearbox should have thought the same! :P

Yeah sounds about right that does for 6n2s.

I was a tad dissapointed with my 15.6 but hey! I need alot more prep I reckon (and a better day!)

Me and James have already rolled the excuses up lol. We should go to a RWYB day soon? Have some sort of shootout!
