Default Tyne Tees Scoobies do the Scooby Shootout

Hi Guys,

So who is going.

Thought about putting a trophy on for the quickest TTS member.

Should I put my name on it now?

Should be putting my application in the post today. Just thought I'd make sure that you have to push your car a little to win!
Once again, think I'll be running the car with full interior and trim inside. Just wouldn't be fair otherwise
Hopefully, wont clobber huge pot hole on way off airfield this year and knack another wheel!!

Nice one Dion,

Your car will be nice and quick over 1/4 mile (if you don't put that daft exhaust on)

I will be stripping a little weight from mine (and me) before the SSO.

Think I'll be having a look down to spectate, don't want to take the trophy off you Martin, as you already come out on top for the TTS rolling road day(untill next time when I should be able to get mine on the rollers), as for the quarter mile, still a bit scarred incase I break it. Our lass would kill me.

Gravel,

Your car will be so light by the time you strip everything out, it will be a Flying Machine.

Time to turn the boost up me thinks.

Join the AA even if it doesn't break you can save the cost of fuel from the trip home by pulling a sensor plug off and giving them a call lol

or just tell them you broke the gearbox they wont even try to fix that

Any idea of what type of times you are expecting?

Mark,

Still haven't killed that bl@@dy clutch. Even a session with AndyF couldn't finish it off.

Anyway, because I don't want it to fail at the SSO, I am having a new one fitted in a couple of weeks, along with a lightened flywheel.

Still need to loose some weight !!!!!!!
