I thought it was, seemed to be hardcore gravelly northern banter, not the watery southern stuff

Well was a really good day out and nice 2 meet all you lot, although i dnt have a corsa i fitted in well.... atleast i had up the french side of things for paul, lol.... I was happy with times in the end but still think there is quicker times to comes this year to be honest. My best run was a 14.42 so not to bad. Did any1 get any vids!? Or is there many pics of the saxo running!?

I think with the rear out, youd be pushing 13s on a good day. Assuming you havent already.

Yes, please do come along and try. Its common knowledge I cannot launch for toffee so 14.9 is a good time, I've seen Astra VXR's at the pod running 14.4's all day long, its the driver not the car.

Paul J's 106 is amazing however, for me that thing is far more impressive than a 2.0 16v Corsa, its mildly tuned and its absolutely flys, so impressed.

Yes fella it was indeed.... Yeh i got sum serious wheel spin all day really, but thts wot ya get with big power nd fwd! But aparently the track wasnt even glues so i may go back up at the end of the month. I do believe she is capable of a 14 dead, but well see. Cnt believe i got in 32 runs.... Omg the m1 was horrible on the way back tho!!

Pauls car is ok, but these engines are good when tuned slighly, and in a lightweight car it makes sense, are you seing the light, lol

Been speaking with Paul today about my next car - french, lightweight, 16v, sounds like a plan to me.

Pauls car does get good times, but I do believe its partly down to him being able to launch quite well

All those days of practising with SXI power have paid off
