And he did it for several hours straight with only a few dashes for a can of pop... top lad.
Here, here.

Really impressed with Andy's professionalism, knowledge and his ability to communicate the results to everyone in plain english. Told him as much, and told Kev and Adam too.

Couldn't have asked for more.

Indeed, thanks to all down at the 'clinic for making us welcome and fitting some of us in at short notice for mods, oil changes, etc.

Really good bunch o' guys.

Dito everything that Sticky says, and well to be fair everyone else.

One of the best WYIOC events to date, superb company and seriously enjoyable event.

Huge thanks to Andy at Scooby clinic for giving each of us the time to discuss the results and potential improvements.

Paul Debs, thank you..

Glad you all enjoyed yourselves and sorry I missed it. Simons Leon is starting to make so much sense I was in bed whilst you were having fun having a recurring nightmare about my NSF wheel flying off whilst on the dyno

Look forward to another, maybe next year

Phew.. not too bad a mauling considering Paul's cheeky grin as I left

One correction though.. it was 296.4... & would have been 310 & 330 with Optimax and not Sainsbury's SUL... But I'm, glad I ran anyway.. so thanks to Paul, Dave C and all those that badgered me senseless. What a great bunch..

Cheers mate & Debs. a great day.. and is something I never tire of.... watching some great chaps run their pride and joys and listening to the individual technicals ins & out.. I learned a day about the people and their cars....

James... Save that clip please (with the Stereophonics) as it is simply superb...

In fact, it gave me a little tingle as Dakota awesome and just seeing the cars drive by.. nice and simply with a little camera jusdder.. Captures the feeling & mood of the club superbly...

Well done mate..

Ali - that'll be my next tank full Bit disapointed I didn't have some proper stuff in.. but Andy said it would have been about 5% down as the car was mapped by Rich @Powerstation on Optimax... hey ho..
