If Bilbo lends me his car we'll be doin' it-feel free to pm him and tell him it's the right thing to do

Don't think you need competition licence,no plot and bash all pre plot on classic lanes

Preplot on lanes.... awww, nav is the only advantage I have! *Goes to check how far Bolton is*
Aleks is entering his 1.4 early oct, done one event pretty well too.
EDIT: Hmmm, I have a mate in Preston...

damn, would love to do an event like this but a bit too far for me (plus I have had absolutely no driving time let alone competition miles in a rwd car. that would be near suicide

)

Pah, where's your sense of adventure! 360's are easy to drive in all conditions!

Good attitude
Carl I 'm looking for an arrive and drive deal as my motorsport career progresses-how does a Mars bar and a packet of twiglets sound to hire your V360.Obviously I'd expect a full service crew,chase car etc and naturally a full tank of juice.
Let me know.

I think its the twiglets that sweeten the deal

surely carl cant pass that oppurtunity!
@carl Im not too concerned about slidey-ness in 360's just ask my nav! all 4 wheels drift in the wet in a stock saab 900 anyone!!

Sorry mate, dont like Mars Bars much. If it was a Twix you would have had yourself a deal. Although chasing you in the Rover sounds like it could be fun
So when you planning your first event then Jason? I found 360s well suited to events lacking grip (unsurfaced = good) as the FWD Frenchies loose their advantage and you can show em up a bit
Damn, just thinking and it's been well over 2 years since my last Nat B event

thinking maybe pheasant plucker in late october, should have the car sorted for then and I think that event has some selectifs too

I don't know if the pheasant plucker is running this year, so might be an idea to enter this event, I'm happy to nav you if you need one.
It is a bit of a treck though, ~ 8 hours drive.

yeah trouble is I dont know how reliable the car is yet, no way am I treking to bolton only to spend the whole time sorting the car out! best stick to a couple of small events 12cars etc to prove the car a bit.
