they are very stupid.... and everywhere round here at this time of year....

Fee nearly skittled about 6 at once on the road. She slowed right down for them but they just ran in circles

They are quite nice to eat

K3 VMU - wouldnt have been us around 6pm.... maybe 4.

Chrex - it doesnt get used much as you might have guessed. Its not very practical... it stinks of fumes, has no heating, is very loud and now has a bastard of a clutch. OS Giken tripple plate paddle clutch. Digital!

Sandeel - na, would prob have been the A93

What suspension do the time attack people have? something like Intrax or Moton? Seen a 4 way adjustable Moton suspension for an e36 M3 and it was £9500

there is no set suspension.... some run with budget (like my Impreza), some spend thousands....

Impreza is running ancient non adjustable TEIN HR coilovers.
Skylie is running top end TEIN RS circuit masters... they cost aprox half the purchase price of the Impreza

Very nice pics

I've been seeing more and more cars with time attack sunstrips but fairly sure 90% of them have never been near a track
