I think you'll find people are leaving early as it's their first time, it is for most of us in the EA region and we're going across in convoy.

Location at Gaydon is given in the last issue of the Car Club mag, basically down the entrance road and turn right at the bottom and then the last pitch on the right.

Hi All,

I am still interetsed in showing my car but due to the car STILL being in the garage sorting a few probs out  I am not sure if I will make it.

What is the latest time for me to decide ?

Try and get on the stand on the day Paul if your a chancer!

Anyway, ive spent 5 hours cleaning and fettling the car so far, reckon theres another couple of hours work left on it for Saturday as sadly my run around banger is out of action at the mo so im going to have to use the car in the wet weather this week.

Thankfully Sat and Sun forecast dry so final prep and arch cleaning can be done Saturday..

Should be good boys n girls

Welcome Sharky - very nice E28. How does it feel with the extra nitrous shot - bet it surprises a few people as you shoot by!

It runs 100hp jets with an start hit of 30 hp and over 3 secs hits 100hp full power, any more than 100hp you have to start retarding the timing, another box of tricks is then required, 100hp is enough. With the chip and nitrous I have I must be getting 330bhp when needed.

well sadly I will not be able to make Gaydon.

just got the M5 back & I cant believe how much better it drives-it is now so much quicker .

I had the airflow meter changed as well as a few other bits & pieces & it flies now & is so smooth its unreal-I took her out (private road of course) & she hit 140 without breaking a sweat much quicker than before.

I have fallen back in love with my car I am glad to say.

Unfortunately I cannot make Gaydon now as my wifes car has now packed up & cant get in to be checked out till next Monday & if I leave her without a car any longer she will kill me.

I had the strange experience of being a passenger in the M5 yesterday while she drove it-at 60 behind a caravan & didnt once try & overtake anyone-poor thing-probably thinks it has a pensioner driving it !
