Hi guys, would it be ok to pop along as I am from Leeds so it is not very far. It would be fun spectate for a few hours to see some lovely Edition 30's and put some names to faces since I am new on this forum?   :drinking:

I think I'll be up for this too. I used to live in Wibsey which isn't a million miles away. It will be great to see some more forum members!

Not sure if I'll be revo'd by then tho. :sad1: Been in touch with my insurance co (more than) and they will not entertain me with any mods that improve top speed or acceleration. I could cancel my policy and start a new one with another company, but this policy runs out at the end of feb, so I might wait and claim the extra year no-claims.

Plus I suppose it would be interesting to see the car in standard form on the dyno. :driver:

Thanks Matt + Topcat  :drinking:

The show car is currently off the road due to lack of MOT unfortunately  :sad1: I'll pop along to a meet next year with it once it is back on the road looking fresh again  :pomppomp:

Two of the guys in M3's were with us on the trip, plus one (pro rally driver!) hired a stripped out M3 (E36 though) and they definitely could drive! Still walked around them :evilgrin:

I still agree that RWD is better than FWD when it comes to big BHP. :happy2:
