How much is the price if I want to run?

  • Damn, 500 mile round trip and a few 1/4 miles. That's a lot of driving in one day

  • Long range weather forecast not looking too good. Going to have to decide on the day whether I'm running or not. Don't fancy paying £25 just to watch the jet track drying machine being towed up and

should I remove the rear seat or it wouldn't affect really the time (as I just have a remap)

I wouldn't bother, I'm leaving my interior in mine

Aye, looking forward to getting up at 4.30am :D

How is it going?

I need to know if it's time to take the spare wheel and seats out of my Fabia, Jason... :rofl:

Where was everyone?!! I think at most there was 6 cars at the stand, and we had a massive space for loads of cars!!

We had a really good day, good to see some cars do the quarter mile!

It stayed dry and sunny mostly with a light spit from the rain for about 10 seconds!!!

Shame we didn't have more people there. Seat took over the place!!!

Leon

I had booked space for 15 cars.

Sadly the uncertainty of weather and cost meant I didn't fancy it plus because of **** poor weather all weak my car was mingling and missing a grill.

I'm Really sorry I want there today,

I'm an Idiot - Spent 6 hours cleaning the car ready for it.... Because I thought it was next Sunday. It is all tucked up in the garage ready to come out next Sunday! Even put the car cover on it!!

I want to cry! I was looking forward to my first meet :(

Adam

Ross, I think thats what most people were thinking about to be fair. there was a few nice cars around... plenty of Golfs Bora's and Seats haha... about 6 Skoda's and a few audis! :p

I'm shattered!!

Nice pictures.

No 1/4 mile times?

Danny P's was around 15.3? Max's (Froggy vRS) was around 16, and Jason was around 14 something I think!

The fastest of the day was 10.2 I think either an old Audi or Scirocco (mk1)

It was a good day out to be fair not a single drop of rain until we left at bout 3:30! Also i don't think i did my car justice its capable of a quicker time than that. If i didn't bog down to almost tick over i strongly believe i should of done round the 14.5! Especially wen my warm up was 15.2. Big thanks to devontopia aswel for his help and shame he didn't get to run properly!!

i was at this but didnt realise there was a briskoda stand other wise i would of popped over. i seen the silver fabia with tdisport writtin across the bonnet and i think i was a runner up in either the deisel class or skoda class i duno. my name was called over the speakers but i never bothered going to find out what for lol. my best was a 14.18 1/4 mile with half a tank of fuel and all seats and spare wheel in.

i mean 15.18 not in the 14's yet!!

Was a good day, fastest time I managed was 16.3

15.66 for me! and a nice smell of clutch for the second time !! But Briskoda's members were very nice, I had a really good day!!

Big THANKS to devonutopia for having a look at my Octavia Vrs , developed an engine check light on the way down to santa pod. Your a saver , no further lights yet. Nice day , some nice cars ....shame no more traders showed up. Nice friendly folks at Briskoda's , but we could not hang around too long , missus and friends little boy were getting bored. The little handling track was fun to watch ... :clap:

Happy enough with my warm up 14.3 before being told no space savers D'oh! Got my money back though so c'est la vie. Need to reconsider the rear wheels now given 256mm brakes. Also found later my nitrous is dead, probably the boost switch, and I turned meth off for warm up run... So, diesel only lol! Could have been more and it felt good at least to hold 4th gear to the line, not need 5th. :thumbup:

Glad the rain held off. I hit some only a couple of miles out the show so imagine it started there soon after I left?

Sorry to hear you didn't get some cracking times in Jason. :(

At least the weather turned out far better than most were expecting.

Head wind too, about 15mph average and gusting. Wouldn't have helped. Why did they point that track south west? lol

Always easier for aircraft to take off into a headwind I believe. :D

I guess going the other way would have made cars look faster than they are...
