1000miles in 7 days

So in the last week I have driven from Tonbridge to Lydden for a Sprint, then across to France for a Road Book rally in Bethune. Then on Thursday I drove from Kent to Cheshire for a Trackday at Oulton Park followed by the drive back (Friday night....M6, M40, M25 to Junction 5....you know it wasn't fun !).

On the way to Cheshire I stopped off at MRC Tuning in Banbury and got the car on the rollers...207PS & 215Nm

Didn't get wet at all and had a whale of a time

1015 miles in 7 days

Now thats a man without limited mileage insurance!!!

One day I may be able to do that Jeff. Until then strictly track days and summer mileage for me!!

Sounds like a great week in the car and you had the weather for it!

Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

PS, pferdestarke, german for horsepower. 207PS, is the same as 207HP (metric) or 204 hp (international)

allegedly

As has been said it is 204BHP & 158 ft-lb. 178BHP at the wheels which is 13BHP up since the Powerspeed exhaust with the same torque (the exhaust is 4-1 rather than 4-2-1).

My insurance is limited to 9000 per annum so not the end of the world
