What's it gonna cost, Dojj?

Cos we may as well tag team him.. Two "overhyped antique dealeresque sierra estates" Vs as many 2.0 Novas as he can find ;-)

In article , snipped-for-privacy@hotmail.com spouted forth into uk.rec.cars.modifications...

I have seen this "antique dealeresque sierra estate" and heard it launch.

You may (but I doubt it) get round the circuit sharper, but by the time you have traction, he will be half a lap ahead and still accelerating.

Rob, do you want to go away and have a quiet read first before accepting?

£20 per car at silverstone for ford fair £25 per car at silverstone for trax it's a little late now and i'm going to be, but i'll explain in more detail tomorrow (unless you count the trax fee as them boys having more cash to spend for exatly the same amount of time but they do 1 fewer lap :) )

I bet you won't turn up and neither will these guys. I've come to belive you don't even have a Nova 2l 16v, unless you can prove it with piccies :P

If you do get it together I might ask if I can use my dad's 2.2i quattro sport, its in a bit of a mess tho since its been garaged for a long time. How does track day insurance work? Since if I smashed that I would a) Be castrated by my father b)have to replace a stupidly rare car.

But there is more than a good chance I won't ever get near it let alone drive the old bastard thing, it's quite funny though back in the day my dad used to beat all kinds of top of the range sports cars and low range supercars in it. Stupidly fast for a car that realistically only has 300 odd bhp I think in standard street trim but I think when they were used in the now banned group b rallying, they topped 500+ bhp.

I will rob my sisters digi-cam and take some pic's tomorrow if anyone wants to see it? Rally history right there :)
