    Gutted i wont yet get to see what the datsun can do I was hoping to get into the 14's bearing mind ive never done a drag race before. I think there may be scope for low 14's or maybe a very high 13 with the right launch and decent tyres.

    Interesting shad how there were a couple of big power (250bhp+) CRX's at TOTB and they were still stuck in the mid 13's?

    Weather's looking good

    I'm just about to go and swap cars around on the drive so I don't have to do it at 7am!

    Still on for the services at J10/M40 shad? I'll meet you in the esso petrol station there (easy to find each other then!)

    Im still on (unless the weather goes totally to pot), look out for a grey Mondano L535*** - not hard to miss as Ive lost a bit out the rear bumper
    Should be there (my mysterious petrol station) from about 8:15 onwards

    Im still planning on coming too... tho if it rains its my fault since Ive been out washing the cab and polishing the wheels for the past couple of hours!

    Be at the petrol station by 8.30 (if I can get my ass out of bed!).

    250 isn't really big power, that's B18/B20 land. Mark's B16 pushing 350+, now that's big power

    I think the problem they have is putting it down. That's a lot to ask from the front wheels!

    Oh lol

    I'll be happy if I can do a 15.3, due to the weight of the rear strut braces. Over all though the car should be lighter than before, but the mirrors and wipers could upset that.

    Anyway drifting OT now...

    See you all bright and early on the A509

    Er.... 8:30 ish, doubt we'll make it earlier than that from our end anyway. I think we should aim to set off from BP at around 8:45.
