It's worth a look this month.

Probably in the shops by the weekend.

TM regulars will recognise the car on the front cover.

This is the one since Jimbo's article.

No efimini shootout in this one.

But yet another great set of photos from Mr Woods. Pity that you cannot make some people look human whichever way you photograph them *happy*

I made this a "guess the car on the front cover" for a reason.

It should really be 93.35mph in 8.1081 secs- the best ever 1/8th mile trap speed and time, at last years Minis vs poxy rattly VW things in the final where I got skanked by a car that could run in the 11's, that I qualified against with then my best time of 12.3 something, and then ran 12.17 against him, and still fooking lost when he ran a 12.07. Nearly caught him though!

Although I have got to the 1/8 in 8.03-something sec in the past.
