Christ I'm still feeling sick. :eek:

Nice to meet you all when I wasn't in the car napping off the hangover or on the bog dumping more toxic waste.

Very happy my M20B28 made more power than the M52B28 thats put a smile on my face even the slow puncture and diff damage to my boot can't wipe off my face. Just text Adam to tell him how shes going and I think he wants her back. :P

Don't think so. I'd be happy to be wrong though because seriously 220 is a bit piss poor.

Mine made 220bhp, but fuelling is all over the place, and I have a 6 branch to go on yet too currently still on the log manifold.

Good day out that was. Shame the weather was a bit piss poor in the late afternoon. Good old england.

Good to meet some more names and faces as well. As well as all the other wronguns that I already knew. :)

On the power board, there was a 455 bhp iS scribbled down. winkeye Gordon has a picture I believe.

The c1 made 270bhp with rising intake temperatures, so the ability for more I do believe. It also sounded the tits! :cool:

No diffin bar the obvious arse slightly out on the exit of fritz's. As it behaved well today i did bonk it off the rev limiter a few times on the way back, irish style, innit. Treat it mean to keep it keen :)

Floz, the a303 was a joke. If they didn't put all the short 2 lane which goes back into 1 lane it would flow fine. I took a slight diversion through shrewton and came back on the a303 by the infamous shit stones as i was bored of using the clutch.
