Lol, Donal managed to hit Valentines as well this year

Looks like it was a good day!

Had to sit it out again, knee not quite up to it yet Next time!

 

[Graham]

Was indeed a great day and a few cars going quicker than past days which was great to see

Nigel & the green RS had such a battle, I don't think there was very much between the two cars at all (the megane cornered faster is anything) and the battle deserved a round of applause at the end of the session as it brightened the hairpin up watching you's tussle

Also I finally got out with Paul in the megabusa and I only thought I had been in quick road cars (700bhp evo for eg) but these wee kit cars are just mind blowing, breathtaking and with the right pilot an absolute blast, cheers Paul

 

[pauls westy]

No problem Graham,next time you'll get a full session!
Ask Stevie if he has any good pic's to get them on.
Should have some of me tryin to get the power down at the hairpin

great vid and awesome steerin there nigel!

it was quick, but i had the upper hand in the corners, i could accelerate out the corners better, lsd in the megane gets the power down quickly...

dont forget an RS must nearly weigh two tons, especially one with a lux pack 3, ffs it even had a reversing camera...lol

 

[collyirwin11]

seen a bit of this battle yesterday when i was done
it was strange watching the megane cause it was fairly shifting but there was little noise or drama.
lovely motor's. was a good few nice motors down there yesterday

 

[nigelmcg]

Found this on youtube, not sure what you call the guy who owns it...

[Graham]

nigel I reckon debtors has about 5mph more than the very last part of that clip, but my god there wouldn't' be much road left lol

passing the focus gave you an awkward line into it and at the pace it must have felt a lot faster than it was?

good work

 

[svensktoppen]

Lol, the Renault definitely quicker, but then you would have been on semislicks Nigel and the ford on road tyres?

What was that screeching noise everytime you hit the throttle?

Also I finally got out with Paul in the megabusa and I only thought I had been in quick road cars (700bhp evo for eg) but these wee kit cars are just mind blowing, breathtaking and with the right pilot an absolute blast, cheers Paul

Lol, I told you And Paul too, complete lunatic, goes like a cruice missile

 

[Tim(e)]

Think thats the just the engine/exhaust Nic....

Remember little sound deadening, plexi glass, a titanium exhaust system, no rear seats and a roll cage.....noisy little bugger in the cabin!

 

[nigelmcg]

What was that screeching noise everytime you hit the throttle?

As Tim said its the titanium exhaust when she's on the turbo...
