Well done Simon, looks like you hooked up some good driving. I bet that beetle driver was devastated when you beat it Jack Jones |

Nice one, just need to time your gearchanges right now to make it consistent and change some of those hideous bolts for nice looking ones I seriously doubt it! |

I have been working on little bits to fit to the mk1, I am going to start a list here again as I keep losing bits of paper. Also it's a good data base for some people.

Wow I think I'd rather go on a diet myself than go to the effort you must have to lose that 1kg

This weekend I was to go to pod to see if I could get into the 12s but as it was raining on sat I sacked it off, so I set a goal of 1kg saving on the mk1, so I swap / lighten some bits that was on the mk1.

Don't take this the wrong way haha! Do you wear as light/little clothing as you can to save weight while doing runs? They don't die, they just get faster! |
