exactly! :D

i actually can't sit in my touring with a helmet on, without the helmet pressing against the headlining. if i had a dedicated track car, a lower seat and no sunroof would be essential.

I've been toying with the idea of a mass Ring trip loosly (not exclusively) based around people I know through WMS, maybe next year. If so some of the POSSIBLE cars could include:

Lots of E30's: You know who you are! (Open to anyone of course.)
Renault Alpine 550-650bhp beast.
Lots of Mk1 MR2's with (300bhp ish) 2.0 Turbo and (200bhp ish) 3.0 V6 swaps. :mad:
Lots of German Uno Turbos.
Mk1/Mk2 Escort race cars.
TVR Chimaera 4.x? V8 race car
TVR Tasmin 3.5 V8's
Sierra Cosworths
Escort RS Turbos
etc...

It's just an idea, but would be an interesting mix? winkeye

Er, well probably something like "I didn't go the year before"!

Car would (I hope) be the Mk1 MR2, with the flowed / big valve head and 1.8 conversion, plus better shocks...
