Was going really well, got up there no problems, car running fine! was leading the way, hitting good speeds (for a 1.2) no problems
Stopped at the services just before silvestone, met up with a few ppl we missed coming up,
Pulled out from services on the way to silverstone, engine shudders, power all over the place, engine management light on, emissions light on
hardly moving shes got nothing! 
Crawed in parked up on CS stand, managed to find my mate with a error code reader plugged it in
Logged 4 faults with the engine, all cylinder related
Got home with hazards on most of the way, 50mph top speed at 3k
On a cheerful note passed 7 broken down cars on the way home, at least we were moving

Oh bugger.
I got pulled on the way home and fined for my smoked number plates as i forgot to change them before i set off. I even changed them at the road side and the cunt still fined me.  Oh well, its my own fault realy for being lazy. £60 down the drain.

Not hiding as such but seemed to be so much to see? So was darting around all over the place! Was on the CS / WR stand for all of 2 mins - said hi from a distance to Warren, Phi, jr, Willay etc but that was it
Was on our own stand for a laugh this year. Didn't get in to the show till 10am either - was queuing outside for 2 fooking hours

French tin got abused to fuck at coombe and trax and survived fine. Just less tread on the tyres now
Not good news on the plates though. I have pressed ones but didnt get stopped. £60 though I thought it was only £30
