Aidan - V8s are fantastic, I lived in the states and had a 73 Mustang
convertible with a 351 Cleveland, twin Holley 750 carbs, high lift cams
and racing exhaust. 400 bhp at the rear wheels on leaf springs
Thing was harder on rear tyres than juice but great fun. Handling was not even a topic and come to think of it it was fairly brutal at stopping but on a rolling start it was mental. Must dig out some oics and scan them in to post them up. Wish I'd never sold it but hey at the time beer was more a priority. |

hardware? as in cars? They have brought cars each time such as E46 M3s. The last day, Robbie Bolger was hoping to come down and (at a customers request) test drive a new 6.

Rang in my fee for the day Killian - so hopefully that'll give you a few extra minutes sleep @ night. So we're sharing the track with the Porsche club, yeah? Should be an interesting comparision.... |

We are *not* out with the Porsches. They are on in the morning and we are on in the afternoon! It is just coincidental that we share the same day. |

I just had a look at the porsche club site - there are a few pics from their track day last October but one confuses me - is there a car there that possibly shouldn't be? Edited by kbannon |

and here I was thinking that you were refering to that Smart thing in the foreground, but those Cayennes are seriously rapid. Not sure what purpose they have in this country though. An X5 is a better all rounder and has plenty of poke.

I have one that connects through the cigarette lighter, and is fine but a bit slow. I'll bring it along too.

@killian
I know of 2 members who will be taking part in the trackday. However they wouldnt have known if it if I hadn't told them as they are not on the net. I wonder how many other members are not aware of the track day due to no intenet access. I dont want to start a debate on the matter but in this instance how are members with no internet access been targeted? Edited by Eamo |
