Just a quick video while we were testing the Berk Tech exhaust.
The road runs alongside Llandow Race Circuit, and is normally deserted. I did two runs, and both, a car came along.
I give up.
Enjoy.

Not done a recorded 0-60 in the dry so far Skip, but it recorded 4.708 in the wet.
When I get chance (and the space on a private road), I'll do a 0-100.

Hope to mate. Just need to sort out some decent times at the pod. Tim is giving me a hand to fit the new turbo soon, so there's no reason why it won't be pretty competitive.

I live about 15 mins from there Nath. I go there, because my mate owns the kart track, and the road is (normally) deserted in the week as there's no activity there.
...trust me to pick both times when a car came down the road.
BTW. He's called Motormouse.

No, Richard owns the circuit. Kenny Denscombe owns the kart track (or lease on it).

Will do Mitch. Now the car's in tip top shape, I'll be heading for the pod pretty soon. Hoping for mid 11's with a little more practice.

Yeah, I'll be running it as is for the first visit to the pod Tim, as you said, it'll give me something to base my figures on that way.
Let me know what sort of thing you want for the graphics and I'll play around with some stuff tonight.
I'll sort out the funds for that errr..... upgrade, today. Should take a couple of days to come through.
Squeak to ya later dude,
