There are 1 or 2 standard MK2's going and I'm pretty sure some Mountune and Revo cars also not sure of bhp though, there are also a few MK1's going and 1 of them is 500+bhp!

There will be plenty of fwd cars attending, Seats, Golfs, astra/vectra VXR's, Focus RS MK1 & 2's and others!

As for weather, hit and miss really, it could be glorious sunshine, rain, wind, I've been 3 times and encountered all 3! :grin:

Rod, is this just another excuse to try and avoid the humiliation of not beating a motability Golf's time again?  :booty: :signLOL:

Listerofsmeg - What you rocking up in mate? FWD class will be seriously fierce this year and i'm glad I retired the Golf as a champ  :laugh: as it would be knife to a gun fight time this year (many 500bhp+ stripped out monsters turning up).  :scared:

If it does rain, it's not quite as bad as you might think. The runway as Marham is quite a spectacular piece of civil engineering. Due to it's importance and Tornado Jet Fighters taking off and landing constantly (not on this day you'll be pleased to know  :scared: :grin:) it has to be able to drain water off and out of sight near enough instantly.
If it does rain, there will be no puddles or standing water at all and it's amazingly quick at drying. So long as it doesn't rain all day, you should be fine (unless you are running a 1000bhp through the front wheels and on slicks  :laugh:).

Absolutely not mate.. I use to have a CTR and know of the Jap crowd's potential for sure. Just a shame none of them never seen to show up (been invited in the past) :sad1:
What is she packing mate, any links to build thread, spec, 1/4 mile times etc?

No mate, live mapped, uprated pump and bigger injectors!

That's why I'm gutted, massive change from before! :sad1:

what power was your ed30 running for your quickest run last year? 400+?

I have a huge build thread over on civiclife.net but essentially its an old B18 engine with a hooooj turbo attached to it. Hoping to get a proper map on it soon as i want to give it a shakedown at the pod in feb. I did run it last year but it was never really "right", smaller turbo and a few other bits then too. Should be much improved this year. Its even got carpets and everything ;)

Eddie was only running 355bhp mate, so nowt special.
So what sort of power figures will the Delsol producing on the day and what you hoping for @ Pod realistically?
