  • Yes I realise that, Lloyd was checking to see if he could get a 'pass', which has now been granted - hence his comments about a 330bhp taxi ! I'm already getting 'Nitrous envy' seeing that a few pee

Yeah, BBC and met office all changed as well. That rain was initially meant to be coming right across on Saturday night leaving a dry sunday. Now they're saying that rain will be on Sunday, not the previous night. :(

I won't be going if it stays like that, thats for sure.

Im going to withdraw from this now.

I'm fairly sure the weather will mean no runs anyway

The buyer of my car didn't look too impressed when I said I was intending to run, and the front tyres don't have much life left in them anyway

and i need to find a cheep car and there's a nice Audi A2 going to ADI at coombe on saturday - and I can't do both the pod and Coombe this weekend.

Have watched three different local forecasts this lunch time - I live 2 miles from the strip. All are different, best says Sunday will be cool but sunny others say showers or even rain.

Will post updates as Sunday approaches, if it will be dry I will be coming late am - must watch the F1 in the morning

Well, the outlook this morning is a bit more positive. Suggests the rain will be off the south coast rather than over the south of england, threatening northamptonshire. :)

I think I am currently back to "Going" :D

I'm going to probably pull from this due to the potential for bad weather and current funds. Also my tyres are a bit low on tread, dont think a drag run will help this issue!

Thanks for organising it and sorry to dissapoint.

I have checked again and the weather is forecast to be dry all sunday for the Pod postcode!!....

Its going to be a 5hr drive for me and im deffo still going down..

Weather forecast is looking infinitely better now. I'm 100% now and coming from the depths of deepest Devon.

Should be there :)

The fabia is all set up for the nitrous now, so can't wait for this.

I'll have a whapping big TDISport sticker on the bonnet. But I might be out doing runs for a lot of the day. I'll PM you my number just in case.

It ended up 259bhp and about 435lb/ft if I remember correctly.

I look forward to similar figures :)

Weathers still looking dry for the day :) Is there a time we have to be on the stand by?
