I know mate, all depends on the weather but an st170 will be fun at the crail strip..........you should take it up and enjoy it mate. It aint about being fastest but having fun in your motor safely. You should give it a rip

Awesome? How come? Lol

I gave it a miss, and just spent the day cleaning the new car properly inside and out. Will get up to Crail for the mag day at the end of the month, but other than that, I'll be waiting till it gets a bit warmer.
