Great snaps, Looks like a really good day.

Love this cortina!

I went down today as well. Had an awesome day. The guy who owns that mk1 cortina built the 300bhp duratec motor in the retro ford mk2 estate.

What won in the end and what were the top 6 as we had to leave at 4.

And did the mad thing on go kart wheels run?

looking like it does that puma better be very fast! what engine was in it?

Ahhh crap missed it again, every year i want to go but forget. its a fully worked kevlar/carbon body, think it was ruinning a cosworth running gear. really well engineered

1972 998 TURBO SLEEPER

I left early too.

the puma did a 9.6 that was the fastest I saw that thing on kart wheels was insane.

i think it nearly burst my ear drums as I was standing right next to it when they started it. it has a supercharged engine running on methanol.

don't know about the engine in the puma but underneath it was really well engineered, there a photo through the rear bumper show the rear inboard brakes etc!

Carrera gt looks amazing

just seen the vid of that 'puma' its fookin mental.

yeah it was great I didn't see any of the bike to be honest.

when they were all qued up waiting to go on strip there was an old cafe racer running right next to us with an overflow carb float we pointed it out to the rider and the marshal but he just shrugged it off, and it was dripping right next to the exhaust!

didn't really fancy a face full of flames so we went for lunch!
