[QUOTE=martin-reyland;3173126]Thanks for the kind comments guys :top:

I am now officially retired from attempting any more top speed runs in my Escort, when someone beats my 200.2 I will not be trying to regain the record. As PhilM said the monkey is now off my back and is laying dead at the end of Brunters :king:
