Thanks for the pic !
Have you sorted yours yet?
I finished 4th in class not bad considering it's largely a standard engine but it desperately needs a diff fitting but at close to a couple of grand by the time it's fitted in the car it's alot of money.
I had a look at the times I set in the trophy last time and I was only a few tenths quicker in this despite it being a bit lighter than the trophy, it just goes to show how bloody good they are in standard form :)

Hi
I just thought I'd update the thread as its gone a bit quiet , I had a good season overall with some excellent results.
I ran in both the standard a modified classes but once in the modified class it gets a bit open cheque book time as there are some very powerful and well developed cars with 200 + bhp , one car was running 50 bhp "down" on last year making do with 230 ! but in the end power is nothing without control ;- )
My best events were Aintree , Mira and Anglesey which was strange as running with only 166 hp I should have been way off the sharp end as these are very quick circuits.
I put this down to my car being very well setup to suit my driving and the lack of very tight corners where an lsd would make a big difference.
I have had :-
1 first
1 second
3 third
1 forth
1 fifth
At Harewood I have finished well down the order as it is very competitive here and cars run slightly different " application " of the regs :dapprove: of the regs lol but was running second in the rain but finished further down as it dried out.
I will be out next year but not sure which class yet ie standard or modified or maybe a different car....

Hopefully we will see some more from the forums out as its a great sport. :D

Colin, ignoring the somewhat dodgy Monica, what are your plans for 2011? We were all very pleased that the MSA backed off with the rule changes. I still think that reading S.10.10 para 2 together with 11.7.1 does not ban STM's, unless local regs specifically state to the contrary.
