But it does involve departing with £200 and a days full of highly entertaining Motorsport . The challenge is Buy a car for £150 or less Must be taxed and tested Meet in a field that has been offered to me locally and its last man standing. Whoever does the most laps wins . Strictly no contact Need 10 participants to make it £50 each. For the cost of a normal track day and you can weigh them in for £100 at the end of it.

If I manage to convince my missus to help me out i.e. being another driver then I am a maybe... I got this thought in my head... buy it in the evening before the event, insure it for 24hrs @ £25, drive it to the track and then destroy it www.jacksonracing.pl

johnnybravoturbo Unregistered J	1:) Jbt Guaranteed weigh in Depends on the barge you buy but usually its £100 per tonne and 70% of that is a real figure considering panels will be lost. Personally I'm going for some rwd heavy Japanese tart.

To even things up maybe all the cars go into a pool and JBT gets last choice!! I'm well up for it if I can find a car. Sounds like a right summer bbq occasion or something. 1:) Jbt 2:) Phil_20VT
