mine is fine now broster just needs a throttle cable and then to be driven not sure what power it will be making but hopefully a bit more than std.
Not going to be able to do elvington though as I want the suspension and exhaust sorted properly before i track it may have it ready in time for PVS

As i said above I have no idea if it is on a hill or not I have never been there, It may be fairer to say that times can be slower at santa pad depending on the conditions, It has to be quite warm there to get any grip.

The thing with crail is it as tarmac surface which is abbrasive like a road, at santapod the surface is rubersised and is not to good in colder conditions

crail isnt grippy 
Look at posts on mmig, esp my 60ft post recently. They are all saying crail is poor for launching!
Some of the fastest cars in the UK are from up here... Keith, Calders Supra/impreza/ Andy Forrest etc.... they all run quicker at the almighty 'slow' pod.
These comments really piss me off too.
