jd Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 (edited) that isnt the slowest, someone has entered a chevrolet matiz. it isnt about the times, it is aimed at raising money for good causes and gives those that cannot compete regularly or have the means to a chance to have a go. as far as I am aware this is the first time a hill climb has been available to non-msa licenced public.

the bungster Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Bubble arched mk 1 , a thing of beauty ...
spect Posted February 25, 2012 Author Posted February 25, 2012 well just had a tussle with a BIG Ford Mustang. He was not really getting ahead so I changed maps to race and there he wuz gorn, lol. Well it was not really like that but he was pulling away from me a bit then I realised I was in cruise map, switched over and had to back off all the way till he turned off. I thought they had a lot of guts, but not so sure now, but it did look impressive in my rear view mirror as I allowed him to close on me.
plodster Posted February 25, 2012 Posted February 25, 2012 Now that sounds fun. The other fun thing is you know you used a hell of a lot less fuel than him!
spect Posted February 25, 2012 Author Posted February 25, 2012 oh yes, that too, lol. wonder who had the biggest power to weight ratio, lol
rich 300 Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 Morning all, any body else just done a night shift ?
spect Posted February 29, 2012 Author Posted February 29, 2012 Rich, think I asked you before, do you live near a garage called KJM?
rich 300 Posted February 29, 2012 Posted February 29, 2012 Yep you did, and i do. He fitted my coilovers
spect Posted February 29, 2012 Author Posted February 29, 2012 Ah yes, your car was in for a battery last time I saw it I think. Would be good if you could join us for a drive out sometime. You have a good road up towards Bideford way don't you?
