Indeed. Perhaps a 1.25 if its feeling lucky.

THe injector rail is easy, it can be fitted with the inlet manifold still on. My iS, well bless it, it is an iS after all, whats the point.

I have just seen the final drafts of the trophys, They look great.

We are not talking little plastic cups from the shoe menders on the high street, These are bespoke items made purely for this event.

Come on guys, anyone else entering.

It'd go nicely in the shitter section I'm sure. Yeah i'll bring the iS but its now being severly limited by a half finished lpg system. There is a massive restriction in the inlet as part of the lpg system so alas it won't be going up the strip.

I was thinking of having a couple of runs. Which category to I fit in. 325i only engine mod is an E30 Zone mild chip.

Just helmet and driving licence needed? pay for runs on the day?

Just your driving license, helmets only required for convertibles (unless they've changed the rules) One off payment on the day for as many runs as you like :D

Just checked and it says "Drivers of soft-top vehicles and those doing 110mph+ at the finish line will need a crash helmet".

No chance of mine doing 110+ at the line so no helmet
