And the winner is.....
« on: September 05, 2010, 09:18:11 pm »


Me...  :pomppomp: :pomppomp: :pomppomp:  :signLOL:

Had a trip down to Sliverstone today to Trax with my mate in his R26 and in turn bumped into the usual suspects (Nath, Steve P and Theo, well his car anyway  :signLOL: ).  
So whilst there (during the morning) and totally against my character I know, I decided to have a quick go on the 0-60 sprint and did 2 runs, 1st in the dry (5.15), 2nd got ruined by a brief shower whilst in queue (5.51).  Anyway, turns out that during the remainder of the day none of the other FWD runners managed to pip the Ed30  :booty: and to my suprise I ended winning the class  :surprised:  :star:  :signLOL: Which after seeing some of the machinery there was a bit of a shock TBH..  :confused:
But it didn't end there, as well as my little trophy I also got presented with one of these bad boys...  :surprised:

So all in all not a bad day for a £7 0-60 run  :laugh:

Congratulations mate. Let us know how that VI monitor is. Quite a few people were interested in buying one a while back but no one wanted to bite the bullet.

The GTI isn't just a machine. It's very much a living, breathing thing.

Cheers guys..
Anyone used one of these before? Trying to decide whether to keep it or sell it on to someone who would get a lot more use out of it.. Saying that, it does do dianostic checks / air intake temps etc... Mmmm
