Thanks for organising such a fun day - and thanks to Matt for giving me a lift!

'Twas good to put some names to faces, especially some of the folks I've known 'virtually' for a couple of years now (especially Phil!). That man has scary brakes...!

Probably can't make the dyno date, but I'd like to get it on the rollers when I've been turbo'd - in about a year?

Thanks again,

James

Thanks Bob, I was pleased with the excellent turnout and hope that the people that came along to the two meets will continue to support the Performance Section in further meets over the rest of the year.

Hi

Thanks for the meet.

A good turn out and nice to see a good show of cars.

Put me down for Power Engineering.

Shame no one could work out what my tapping noise is ?


Thanks again

Good Turnout Guys!

Was good to see a decent turnout-well worth the drive-just for a scare, i mean ride in some of the T5 and R's.

Due to the fact i live so far away, (and i hate to admit it) the fact i heavily rely on my part-time job, it may be the only one i can make this year :( But i definatly want to attend another, so i'll keep my eyes peeled and def. keep my diary as free as i can!

Speak soon, Dan

P.s To any non-Crooked Billet people reading, get your backsides down next time, you wont regret it! The more the merrier! ;)
