Didn't go meself still on mend :cry: , but did hear that "BETSY"
recorded 12.92 :shock: A real one up for the 165s, really pleased must have been one of the quickest 4s outside the the pro teams. Quite a few attended from the OC but no times posted yet.

Cheers Nigel C.

aye, betsy did well :D
the fastest time i saw from a 205 was 13.6, with a few 13.7 and .8's.

very good day, even if it did start at 0530 and finished at 0200!

Well as it turns out I couldn't find my license so I couldn't run!! Well gutted! Although after seeing the amount of cars going bang I wasn't too pee'd off!

Had a REALLY good day, it was my first time at the Pod, never experienced anything like it. There were a few 205s running down the strip, don't know who owned them though. The jet car left me speechless and deaf!!

Will be attending a few more of these events...

Not to my knowledge, i think all the 4s left in full health. But I could end up standing corrected! (hope not)

Never driven through the Peak District, reckon it would be pretty amazing. Glad ya had a wicked time, sounds like it was a good substitution for Santa Pod!

Was well impressed when I saw BETSY's run, very quick indeed!

I'm sure there is a vid of the run somewhere...
