Its £15 for 3 runs. Need MOT, Driving Licence and DOT marked/approved road legal tyres. Drivers of convertibles need helmets etc. etc.
Queues almost as bad as 1st RWYB.
I'll be running mine, at least 3 runs, maybe 6, depends how things go. Also MUST get some RAC or AA cover for the weekend if im gonna be running mine, cos more than likely i'll be coming home on the back of a lorry. Running same F20 ive had for a year on the LET and now 300brake!
Hoping to creep into the 13's, say, about 13.6ish

you don't seriously need a fresh ticket to run do you?
i can't believe they'll enforce that to people turning up on the off chance.
i bet about 5% of prospective runners will bring certyificates.

Yes neither have I, don't know if I can be bothered to run to be honest.
Think I'll give it a miss, but will take all documents just incase.

Beardy,
Engine: C20LET engine from Cavalier Turbo, Hybrid turbo, EDS phase 3 management, Adjustable Fuel Pressure Regulator, Actuator spring strengthening kit, Forge front mounted intercooler, Enlarged Regal top hat, custom 50mm boost pipes, Bailey dump valve, Pipercross Induction Kit, 2 1/4" bore system with Magnex Backbox with 3" Tailpipe and no cat. Battery re-located to boot, header tank moved to allow larger boost pipes.
Only thing that might be restricting it is the exhaust system. BUT, i drove it earlier and the 1st time ive planted my foot with a bit more power, from 3rd into 4th on the motorway the clutch slipped and revs just shot right the way round and that was only switch position 3, around 260bhp(ish) correct me if im wrong on that.
