Gti festival santa pod 15th April

Featured Replies

I'm off to santa pod Saturday after noon as i'm staying in wellington to save the drive on Sunday.

So if any one else is interested in being on the stand I need to know by 12pm saturday.

Is it Wellingborough you're staying at? Don't go putting Wellington into your Sat Nav-lord knows where you'll end up:eek:

Not my first ever 1/4 mile run, where I got no traction to the point of axle-tramp, fluffed a gear change, had a crap reaction time..... and came in behind!!!

Luckly it cooled down and started to work later so I could get home
