I'm Getting Excited....
Just a few days to go until ScoobySprint and the palpatations have started...
Probably what is most in mind mind is to getting my car back tomorrow from Mocom where its undergoing its final fettling
Quite a few things been going on and its not going to be the same car as that which I left in a few days ago
A couple of weeks ago Mocom fitted my STi QuickRack and added a Whiteline BumpStop kit, then set up the suspension. Completely changed the handling resulting in a much more planted & confident feel to the car & boy does it like corners
Bolt in cage has been welded in, dropped in an STi QuickShift, added some adj rear pillow mounts (Apex) so as to get some -ve camber at the rear & checking the setup again.
Running a TD05, previously fitted a FMIC & d/pipe (though its still really quiet), Zak has just fitted the 550s, fuel pump/reg and was this evening out doing final mapping
So expecting a slightly more lively car when I collect tomorrow evening
Previously more or less standard at 260 but with mods 320 or so
So together with the suspension setup, should have a pretty capable car with the final bit being the R888s which are on their way to me.
Prodrive - pheer me 
Guess its all down to the driver now
Come play or watch on Sunday!

See you Sunday James, if I manage to drag Simon and myself away from the Hotel bar on Saturday night!
I'm taking the horizontal approach this year.... if the car is not all singing and all dancing at least two weeks prior to an event, I refuse to stress. I must be getting old.
Roll on Round 2 already, so I can beat my Spec C within an inch of it's life!

Hi
Sorry for not responding sooner.
The best way to get the absolute latest info is to stick your email address into the box at the bottom of Scooby Sprint Championship
Full detailed speccy info will be released about a week before each event, but we're still on target for 10 quid each, and you can definitely pay on the gate for round 1.
The competition lasts from 10:30 until at least 4pm, depending on the number of entries, etc.
Stay tuned though, as we'll get the full info to the email list close to the first event.

I remember that day well I fried my clutch 1/4 mileing then went on the handling course bad day,car would have gone a lot quicker but for that(Clutch slipping) and the cones moving in the wind dont forget I had to drive the car back as well 
well thats my excuse anyway Im all fired up for Sunday the cars working well its doing what it should be doing suspension set on third click not enough to knock yer fillings out tyres are working well just need to make sure the driver has his brain in gear instead of been in the red mist this year.
