Was only a matter of time really, and the rest of his competitors will keep playing catch up as always.

When is RT important when your goal is to set a time?
Different in a race, but for this not important at all.
Bit of a pointless comment really.

I popped up but left before Andy did his second run due to it being cold and general shock and awe at the state of impreza ownership nowadays.

He's just being a tw@t as per usual. Well done Andy, you've come a long way since I first met you at Well Lane. 417 bhp iirc in the white classic M104 FUG you made. Must be over double that now!

For sure. I didn't know him it all but he was quite happy for me to poke my head in the engine bay and answer my questions.
He had driven down from Scotland on the day in the car complete with a straight cut gearbox!
