Results list...

In the VAG V Ford arena I think the fastest was a 13.2? by an Ibiza..............VAG rules!

Fastest Ford on that list is a MKII Focus RS at a slightly slower 13.2?

mk2 ttrs was running in the 11's was rather impressive

AHH, only checked the FWD cars as it is a little unfair to put a 4WD VAG against their little puny Ford offerings

haha true , then again i seen stevies s3 struggling for grip , not sure of his times but looked quite quick , times were down at the start of the day , bit of a pain in the ass

Yea thats the guy that is tuning my rs soon ill be getting the same hardware and software, as a comparason he ran a 13 dead last year with less mods and without 265 wide 888s, i think the times were slowed dramatically due to the track conditions, no one really got the times they wanted on the day, even wallace performances evos were off there usual !

Was a good day and i'm glad it was busy for both show n shine and track. Some great cars up there on the day. And another HUGE thanks to Falkland and Revo for the great customer service as always. As for Crail i wont be back at for a long time, surface is horrendous, start line is dipped so you roll forward and false start and for the amount of money they charge they should get some fukin decent timing gear. Next 1/4 for me will be Inters or York. Cheers, Stevie.

I agree crail is appauling , lets hope that new strip down stevenson is done sooner rather than later !

Any news on that happening this year? Any idea who was in the yellow cupra R that i followed down the road? Stevie.

it got the go ahead so hopefully should be complete in 2 years .... long time but better than still going to crail in 2 years time , can only imagine what it would be like then .       yellow cupra r might have been Graeme connells , he lives in largs . standard with a revo stage 1 on it i think and springs

Mine made 13.1 and beat the fastest Focus in the final VAG vs Ford shootout race 

The wee mk3 Ibiza that came 2nd only has 250bhp! Absolute weapon!

What was the spec of the FRS? I take it you have now gone back to stage 2+?
