Elvington this Sunday

Post by TimJMS » Fri Aug 01, 2003 4:06 pm

Anyone going to Ten Of The Best II?

The UK's fastest road legal vehicles will be slugging it out against each other and the stopwatch on Sunday at Elvington, just outside York.

Some pretty amazing machinery TOTB

Entirely weather dependent for me, if not busy will be there [img]images/graemlins/thumb.gif[/img]

Otherwise there will be coverage on Sky.

This is a compliment to the Japanese representatives but sad that there is not one Audi represented.

Perhaps this would be a great event to enter next year - RS246.com could put forward 5 of their finest. [img]images/graemlins/9mm.gif[/img]

Wish I had had more notice of this - How did you find out about it Tim?

I occasionally look in on the proceedings over on www.gtr.co.uk Those guys are constantly pushing the boundaries when it comes to tuning in the UK, and I know that will interest many of us on here [img]images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Good job I checked in recently or it would have passed me by!

Totally agree with you Ian. Shame no Audis represented, and since some here have already done "drag" type days this is just silly. Obviously no one will be trying to compete with the 1100hp Skyline that is rumoured to be entering, but a turn - out would be worthwhile. A wet day could see us whipping some Vipers or GT2's.

Anyway weather permitting I will be there for a recce, and post up some thoughts [img]images/graemlins/thumbs.gif[/img]

Mmmmm what about 5 of the finest and a S3 to just show how close this little hatch can keep up with a scooby?
