Anyone who is still a possible, please to confirm that you will or will not be around/onshore to take part?

We'll be kicking off around 9:30 so if people can aim to be there for that time. Those coming from the South, you can have a bit more time to make the journey up. I will be there from 9 at the latest and so will the guys at Wallace.

Thanks to everyone for showing up today. I think it generally went pretty well.

I dont think I've ever stood outside Wallace Performance when it's not been absolutely freezing. Made a nice change today. laugh

Well that`s me just got in after an interesting drive home. I had just got onto the A90 when I went to overtake a car in 5th gear when my revs shot up shocked . So that was me nursing the car home,keeping the torque to a minimum while contemplating a clutch change instead of fitting a Greddy frown . After a very long 150 miles I plucked up the courage to see how bad it was slipping and to my surprise it was fine crazy . I gave it several high loads and it never slipped once (even when it overboosted up to 1.4 BAR shocked ).

I`ve came to the conclusion that it was either a patch of diesel on the road or Sparky doing some voodoo to get the smug grin off my face wink .

Anyway thanks to Matty and the crew again,shame we missed a few of the Alfa`s (the guys seemed to fly through the cars today). Hopefully next time i`ll see a power increase instead of the other way round again too rolleyes laugh .

Baz smile

Mines still up there and is getting some work done to it, hopefully it should be on the rollers next weekend.

How much will I love the two and a half hours train journey back up there to pick it up again, but at least I know it in good hands.
