top day with TC,SteveP and Neil  :happy2:

my car survived apart from 2 front tyres, nearside tore up on inside edge pretty quickly and didnt want to risk not getting home.
otherwise brakes and remap were just fine  :jumpmove:

trying out some new Goodyear F1's tomorrow.

we did  :congrats: fantastic retro , had us talking up the Mk1 GTE.
Seemed to handle really well and was quick through the corners. looked like it could easily handle even more power :evilgrin:

A mate of mine owns it and I must admit not all is as it seems. Its a MK1 Astra shell on on an Impreza chassis. This includes the engine and running gear. He is known for making up crazy projects like this.
