It's practice friday, racing saturday for the regular meeting (as in us lot), then a celebration of 60 years meeting invitation only on sunday, ex champions etc.

I said a tonne Graham because that is what Murray told me.

 

Prescott was cancelled today due to the floods.

England, you gotta love it.

 

 

very nice, I reckon the quattro is about the best, meanest looking car ever made.

 

Agree, but the first ones are good too especially the venue!

Bored this weekend as I was all ready to run the 911 at Prescott till the phone call on Friday.
Cleaned all the Sti suspension and a bit of 'reverse engineering' underside too.
Must go faster after that?

Every time i look at the Sti I think how heavy everything is and how much you could bin if it were not a road car....

Just needs a 2.5/ppg now.

Easy.

 

you could go for a compromise like me without spoiling the car?

 

anyone go the JAE show? my car was on a stall there

 

Did you sell it or have you come to your senses!
Graham

 

no not selling now got sponsored by ds automotives

 

Graham, I've got a forged 2.5 you could buy, only thing is you'd need to buy the whole car!!!

Cheers!

Martin

 

LOL!
There is a Type R for sale with stacks of mods on it with a 2.35 no less but stock gearbox for £11.
That is the whole immaculat car with an engine like that.
The engine would cost 8 alone!

Well done with the sponsorship Pete, what can they do for the car?

 

That doesn't bode well for me getting reasonable money for mine then, I was going to aim for 12/13 with the 5k engine and the 2k exe-tc.

Where's the Type -R advertised?

 

In the for Sale section, not the car section.
It is black and the engine was a Projects Feature for months.

 

Sorry to say it Wadsy but I think your aiming far too high there mate, mods add very little residual value to cars compared to their worth it seems, you need to shop around and see what similar cars are going for. 13k can buy you a full blown race car these days.

You could be right Rob, although it has cost me about 18k in parts (including the car) and another 5k-ish in labour!!

 

lots and lots going for diffs, more power, motec, and more

 

Oh no......
You really don't want to be doing that Pete, you want a nice tidy Impreza to enjoy honest...

Look forward to it all.
Hope this will unfold in 2007.

Graham.

 

We're all in big trouble.

 

Just checked the forecast for this weekends 2 day B meet, total washout. I'm getting seriously f**ked off with this weather now, will we ever have another dry run?

 

I'm all paid-up for sat at Silverstone for the night race etc, just great in the rain...

 

Rob:
I've heard that there has been a lot of soil washed down over Shelsley from the spectator area putting that part of the hill at risk.

The big 3 day meet MIGHT be cancelled.

Just a heads-up.

 

Screw this english weather might go back to being a full time beer drinking champion!

 

This week you will need a boat to find the beer...
I think Loton is still on for the weekend.

 

Its on the shelsley web site!!

Shelsley Walsh Speed Hill Climb - The World's Oldest Speed Hillclimb

 

I am not sure if I have an entry yet, but that does sound bad.....

Can't remember what the Impreza is like to race anymore...

 

Shelsley on 17th&18th has been cancelled and will be re-scheduled for October so I am told. Depressing stuff, the season is falling apart.

 

That is right, got my letter today.

Prescott has lost the run up to Semi and the return road is broken in 2 places!

Loton is go!
That is the beauty of being built on porous rock.

 

26/07/2007 New Prescott Date

Some news from Dave Riley about Prescott:

"The rain has done some damage to the track.

The area after esses has moved further and dropped a section of the return road has tried to move into the stream.The bulk of the tidying up of gravel traps etc has now been done.

Our contractors are coming on site to undertake the necessary repairs this is due to be finished by Saturday giving the club Monday & Tuesday to finish preparations for the driving school on Wednesday.

The VSCC meeting Aug 4th & 5th will go ahead as usual as will Sept. 1st & 2nd.

Last weekends two meetings will now run September 22nd & 23rd."

Rain, what rain? Come and join our championship in sunny Cyprus. 43 degrees today and has been for a week, and over 35 for the past two months. Nice in a racing suit, helmet and car with no ventilation. Only problem is tarmac melts a little, but lots of grip.
