Early...9am? Maybe a bit earlier? We'll be heading out early so we stand a chance of getting signed in. You can turn up to watch at pretty much any time.

cheers

The times were that slow, we're stuggling to find a hosting service which will accomodate the video sm56 sm56 sm56 Sadly, the track was slippery. Reeeally slippery. 2wd turbo skylines were running in the 15s! On the plus side, Martin (Fordy-88 on Tbricks) did manage to beat my time (from last september) by 2/10ths. Only took 12psi to do it :D

cheers

It's a 242...they're magic. sm56

Or maybe he had a jack under the diff so he could try the Polaris rims on his car ;)

...including some 300 series ones.

Yours truly bought the only 300 series green book folder he had....covers specs, engine, and electrics.
