[Tim Falce]

Damn, just found out I am working that day.

[thebullet]

Oh :O im sure they will let you have the day off?

[Al Weyman]

I am endevouring to have one of the beasts out that day all being well. We are doing a poll on the clubs site to see how many will commit as the more in the cheaper it gets and the pre-93's are already up to 20 cars so it should be a good turn out.

So how do you rate your chances Al?

Thanx martin

Looks very good and after the last bank holiday meeting lets hope its dry.

Not at all if I am honest Gixxer! I will be out in the old car and it has a cooking engine in it, I was hoping to fit a roller cam and some ported F5000 heads but then I knocked out the engine in the black car and so far I know that will need the roller cam as thats knackered and may need the block and steel crank and heads as well that I had earmarked for the other car so I am literelly running at least 150 bhp less than is easy achieveable on these engines, it even has hydraulic lifters and unported factory competition Bowtie heads! Still the chassis and brakes are sorted well so hopefully I won't totally disgrace myself and it sounds good! If I had the black car up and running for pre-93 it may have been a different story though at least I thought it would but oddly the rules have allowed a 3 litre M3 in class A so thats a foregone conclusion to win that one as well!

[thebullet]

Good Look
