weather looked a bit pap on the mrning but we went anyhow as forcast was ok till the evening so took the AX for a few runs


runs were limited pretty much all day to 1 per hour due to some stock and drag car shoot outs but york held open the track an extra hour till 6pm so we got a few extra runs in then


my best proir to this was a 14.8 which i was more than happy with


since then the car has had newman PH3's fitted which seriuosly need mapping as it has a few flat spots
and a cold air feed from one of the morrete spot lights i removed


runs of the day

15.0 -v- saxo
14.8 -v- saxo
14.8 -v- nova
14.5 -v- polo G40 i might have danced a little when i saw this time
14.7 -v- 205 gti 1.9 8v
14.9 -v- volvo T5(new shape)


cars i raced in my class were a saxo vts and a nova that was stripped to fook
funny thing is i beat the nova having dine a terrible set off and being way behind and when he got into the pits he slammed the door and kicked a dint in it and then went home lol


i raced in 4 different classes duing the day and won every race so i was well happy with the day and expecially my 14.5

cars raced
saxo vts
nova track car thing
polo G40
205 gti 1.9 8v
volvo T5



cant wait till national day in 3 weeks as im gonna be removing as much crap out the car ass possible to make it go quicker lol


then when its mapped ill be interested to see if i can get in the low 14's

keeping it its far too much fun to let go now and i just fitted hi-spec 4pots and newman PH3's so spent too much on it to let it go cheap now

just needs mapping,LSD and some decent suspension fitting and it should be a right monster :)

Kinda the same boat with me atm, i keep trying to wanna sell mine but have finally got it running great etc and most other cars i could buy will be alot slower or a shit load more to repair
