cheers will-h, seen your car at avon, top motor, really impressed, was a shame you had an engine 'malfunction' hope you got it sorted for the nxt race you had! you have a really nice car there, eventually 'next year' i'd like to have a go at sprints and hillclimbs, it apeals to me as its like drag racing but with bends
and you have to hae a car that has superb handling, if i was to have a go, it would be in the road legal class, i dont know alot about the sport but it looks interesting, would'nt mind coming to watch some!

If you want to know more give me a shout, here or TM.
I'm currently racking my brains on how to attract more people into the sport and joining our club. I'm also going to write a 'how to get started in speed events' which will hopfully be of use.
Nearest we get to Coventry Shelsley Walsh, which is west of Droitwich. we'll be there in September

IMO you can never have too much info when it comes to butchering perfectly sound metalwork
