Big thanks to all that supported the event.
Well done Lynne for selling all those raffle tickets.
Total Money raised for Devon's Air Ambulance came to £405.00 which we reckon aint too shabby for a one day event.
Unfortunately some Guys had lower than expected results due to running probs like Wayne and His Courteny cams causing the nasty rattle of the new set of lifters. Bernie's had a misfire and David's Courtenay Turbo was not running the Power they claimed (hope you get that sorted M8).
Wasn't overly happy with my cars performance as I'd borrowed a nice big Cone filter from Keir hoping to gain a horse or two over my previous result of 199 bhp (with very worn plugs and a dodgy MAF sensor). Those nice chaps at AP agreed to run the car again just to see the difference between Cone and Panel filter setups on a Vaux V6 (old and very contraversial talking point amongst V6 owners).
Imagine my joy as the car running with the standard box with 3 pipe mod, extra cold feed and a pipercross panel filter hit 220.9 bhp with 221 lbs/ft of torque.........I'm still grinning now.
