Was at classic ford today at the pod.

After two poor starts and a missed gear change, i managed a 14.644 @ 95.67mph, even though i had to back off slightly to stop wheel spin in 1st
Previous best was 14.805 @ 93.47mph

think i might need an LSD...... :mrgreen:

Well pleased :D :D

Were you there Yesterday Stu??

I was sure I saw your car mooching around. Great result there mate. Yesterday traction was spot on up to about 2pm. Then it just started fading away.
Not far to the 100mph barrier now :)

Nice to see your times are getting better, Good day place was fookin mobbed, People were talking about taking 90mins plus just to get off the site, I sat waiting for the queue to subside,sulking, I think Ive broken my axle or at the very least ripped it out of the floor, still got me home but making a hell of a noise :shock:

Cheers!

Yeah it was mad busy there today.

I did 3 runs and made a speedy exit at 2pm, didnt fancy waiting until everyone else tried to leave!
