Had an excellent day, slightly damp at times but still good.
Enjoy.

To be fair I have to say I was a guest of the AMD Milltek team and the mood in the garage was very upbeat.
They were thrilled to be there in an unproven car and I understand that 19th isn't special but compared to the budget of the bigger teams then they are doing very well.

I am looking forward to the rest of whatever the season brings and wish them all the best.  :happy2:

....I'll let some of the teams know that you're offering sponsorship, Nath, when I'm there again tomorrow  :evilgrin:

Hedge and I had a great day and as he says, this is the first outing for the AmDMilltek GTI and it's a case of a steady build up. Driver Shaun is pleased with the car so far.

Great racing on the box today.

Although seeing the Golf failed to finish a race and was bringing up the rear of the field in the 3 races before repeated breakdowns.

Does anyone know why AMD have not gone with the 2.0TFSi engine??
Other Car runners including Vauxhall are running with Turbo charged cars and AMD's reason for not running that was cus they couldnt run with one , hense the 280 FSI unit, which seems along way down on power compared to the rest of the field.

Hope they find some more ponnies or they will struggle to compete this year i feel.

They are running to S2000 rules.

don't think he's down on power.

Shaun is still getting used to the car.

plenty of support for him tho out on the hills.  :happy2: 

when he came back out for final few laps in Round 3 the crowd were cheering.

Took over 1000 pics today. Will post some up in a mo. Was good day. Saw Robin too in the morning for quick natter. And NeilM on way home although he didn't see me  :signLOL:
