Are we bothering with a stand lads? If not no worries. I see FJ has abandoned us for his snooty "up norf" stand :lol:

I'm expecting to be there, with 345! Let's try to do a stand if at all possible.

I've been trying, so far I've got 3 or 4 people so allowing for the late larries that normally say yes 2 days prior to the event, 6 is a good guess?

Oops, forgot to mention, there's no way I'll have a working 300 for this, so I'll be down in the manta instead. I'll still blezz it round the track, obviously. 8)

Nah, go for it man...I like the look! Your car is very similar to the D plate 340 I'm breaking at the moment.

Does that 340 have a drivers side wing that matches the dented one on mine?
