A grand day out

Well that was a great day out - I bet you southerners can't beat this...

Almost a full day on the track (wide with lots of run offs) with Nine yes Nine other cars and then as much 1/4 mile drag runs as you could possibly want going on well into the evening...

and the cost... £35.00 .. for everything!

Big thanks to all the guys at Crail in Fife and nice to meet you again Scott

PS there is another one in a couple of weeks dont miss it!

By the way 1/4 mile time was 12.912

(but not as quick as the micra)

Was it (the Micra) a March Superturbo by any chance ?

All I can tell you is that it looks like a bog standard red micra and spends most of the 1/4 mile spinning its wheels ( its still FWD)

Scott, you might be able to tell more about it??

Next day is on the 8th July see...

The Micra has a Nissan Almera engine with a turbo charger. The Car is completely stripped of any unwanted weight (that includes the plastic covering the gauges)

Can't remember the exact power output but I'm sure its in the region of 300bhp, and it weighs next to nothing.
