Mr Hardy has given me the green light, just need to decide now whether I risk destroying my clutch or any other part of the engine/drive train before my ECU arrives or not :roll:

I guess the good thing this time is the lack of tyres in the way

some footage I got from the first run, pretty bad cornering and losing a bit of speed at each tight corner. Comedy $&#$% up at the end.

So this event has already been and gone huh? Hard to tell due to the lack of a physical date being listed anywhere.

Title of thread is 'This Sunday' first post was Monday 1st, if 'This Sunday' on Monday 1st means anything other than Sunday 7th then I have some serious work to do on learning more about the english language.
