i know its a bit far for some of you, but Elvington is a good venue, for 1. if it rains the day will still go ahead
nothing worse then going to Pod and other places and then finding the tracks wet & closed
and there is also the 1.25mile Top Speed timing that is available at elvington

WTF have you got??? A helicopter?
Elvington is 150 miles away from where I live!!
It'll take up to 3hours to get there depending on how the M42/A42 and M1 are running. (and the M42 is sh1te at the mo).
PLus I'm lazy
especially when there's a strip down the road

I'd love to, just to see how my little skoda does against these big bad scoobs.
However, as you say, it ain't a scoob, so I can't play

Can I bring the Skoda along?
Managed 0-60 of 6.4 on gravelly road \ two up \ junk in boot etc, would love to see what I could get it down to.
(also seen indicated 145 on clock, not maxed out)
Not as quick as the big bad scoobs, so don't be afraid!
