PPC in the park

Hello!

Little bit of promotion of the event, and to be honest, my new company, Retropower!

Anybody that's going, the Opel Kadett C Turbo that I have done a fair bit of fabrication work on is going to be at the show, on the track and on the Spoox motorsport stand, though it will by then have our graphics on it.

I hope it hangs together ok as it is still not yet mapped to full boost, just can't get any grip on rollers beyond 12 psi boost (it can make 25 psi) but then it is not exactly slow at that. Mapping it on the road has apparently been "exciting" (my involvement has only been the fabrication and machining work)

Fingers crossed you should see it going on track, if you see it parked, have a gander at the car "under the skin", I really like it as it looks pretty standard externally, but is pretty much totally refabricated underneath!

Anyway, I should, hopefully, be there, if I can spare a short while away from work, and if anybody wants to come over to the unit while they are in the area and see "the facilities" then they are most welcome, U2U me and I will send you my phone no, or just look on the website, www.retropower.co.uk for details!

Sorry about the plug, but its a good event and the PPC crowd are a great bunch!

Are there any opportunities for track time for public?

yes, but you need track tickets and they are sold out I'm afraid!
