Dill, just imagine how quick you would have gone if you had a car like Shaun's

Good for a few more seconds at least.

In the right hands I know my car is quick around a circuit or handling course..... unfortunately those hands dont belong to my arms!

Dill,
You did very well mate and beat my previous quickest time at Silverstone by nearly a second.

True, a given car can give you the advantage to get a quicker time, but the driver skill is more important to a large degree. No disrespect to Neilo's car (and I say this with the best possible intention), but look at his best time in the 1:10's with his WRX (although it has been modified). Thats a testimant to driver ability more than vehicle spec imho.

Regards,
Shaun.

Well done to a good buddy of mine Dale Howard (although he does not come on here) who came a respectable 12th in the Club Challenge Class.

In his Modded Spec C RA Bugeye


Just noticed Dale had the second quickest Impreza in that class - well done mate

scary at the time but just very glad nothing was broken!! (apart from the tracking being out and the brake pin coming out and damaging the wheel

Trailered there and back, no wonder!

Owned from new as well.

It was nice to see what my car was based on in the flesh.

I want to be in the Queen list... please, please!

I'm hoping that this Sunday at TunerGP will mean some good track time..... above all it will let me practice, practice and practice (as it's open pit lane). You can't knock me for trying.

You lot better watch it..... I will be gunning for at least 20th place next year in TA.

Regards,
Shaun.
