The Belmont was running a Vauxhall V6 of some kind, it didn't hang about for a FWD turd.

Got a text from Dan, he ran 3 13.5's late in the day. He ran a 13.6 when I was there.

There were no montego's Alex

There were a couple of Maestros there, a turbo and I think one that had been turbo'd. There was also a maestro van which was turbo'd.

lol cheeky boy...it helped being like 60 stone with traction off the line pmsl :D

yeah my best time of the day was a 15.8....very happy with that for a billy bog standard M20.

Had a great day...totally enjoyed every second....even getting beat a few times of Magpie mick

Was all good fun and the banter was flowing and good ...

On a bad note...my engine has developed a top end noise thats quite bad...drove back ok doing a steay 90 to 100 all the way but im a bit worried about this noise.

oooh well...wheres my wallet lol :D

btw i enjoyed doing the 5.7 gto as well.... :) :)

Cracking pics there lads :D

I didnt even realise there were other zoners there let alone chromies 8)

My best times were
13.561 @103 mph
13.564 @103 mph
13.568 @103 mph
13.651 @103 mph

Well happy with that, I know it will do better, have a couple of issues and its running rich, averaging 100 - 120 miles on half tank 8O
