**** DONINGTON WSR 10th 11th September **** Read this first!

when did i say it had twin turbos,i just said it had a bi turbo engine,nothing about twin turbos?and yes i saw the safrane(quadra)with renault liverpool plates,looked not bad,what was it running,lhd,didn,t look bad i thought,does it live over here?

Biturbo means two turbos!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The engine on its own is like many other Renault V6 engines....when you said Safrane biturbo I assumed you meant two turbos....otherwise why would you specify the biturbo bit and not just a Safrane V6 engine?? The Safrane was running a single turbo on one bank of a V6....I'm sure he intends to work on the second turbo in the future.

sorry my mistake!,it was pouring down,and i was drenched,anyway,it looked great?

peterg, if David can get a tenner for it, as you were so kind to look after it in the first place, I'll spilt the tenner 3 ways....... assuming David gets any bidders.
Thanks again.

Oh Simon, I forgot to ask, What was the Rallycross Circuit like......

unfortunately i couldnt make this meet at the last hour,,but i know the 21toc lads that attended had a great time, and the gala evening sounds like it was a fab nite,,well done to stephen and the rest of the raoc team.

anyone know of any vids/photos of the day on the web anywhere??

I've got some pics of the day and some in-car video from the parade laps. As soon as I've got a minute I'll edit some clips together and post them on the web.

Anyone else take any video footage? Would've liked to have seen the parade laps from the spectators view point too. Must have looked and sounded pretty good!

I'm not sure! I think the sound track is probably both mixed together!

And yes, it's mostly of your asp! And the Le Mans infront of you. Who waa that?

That would be Tony ( Photogenic ) Law .

I've got a bit of footage from the spider on the sunday parade a little bit unsteady as my cameraman was new to the game, but the soundtrack has a few expletives in it espeically wwhen I lost all gears and was stuck in 2nd from halfway around lap 4 until the end!

Will you be posting it online somewhere?

How many laps did we do BTW? I lost count!

I did think twice about doing laps after such a great gala evening especially as the car was so twitchy in the rain. I'd been analysing peterg's knockhill experience, it is so easy to do when just testing the limits really. Just a quick spin and over the grass and I can confirm that they take good care of the grass at Donnington. I'm a firm beleiver in pushing on hard, just so I know the cars limits in all other circumstances.

I'll be intereted to see if a vid appears from somewhere, I was told there was a good cheer from the crowd though, they seemed to like the entertainment too.

At the moment new tyres are on order to give some grip in the wet.

On the Saturday parade laps several A110s spun in front of me.....one even had the cheek to then overtake me when he got going again.....I gave him a bit of a fright on the next straight when I floored it...I think he thought I was going to go past him and he did a sudden jink out of the way!
