anyone off here go to this today? saw quite a few mk3 cupras there. a couple were running up the strip. there was a silver one with carbon bonnet that was putting in some decent low 14 sec runs. also a girl driving a black one who couldn't launch for toffee and was doing 15.8's etc was some really quick golf's there today aswell. was a good day. would have liked to take mine up there but i'm a bit skint at the mo. lol. mine was the yellow cupra with black standard rims and jabba stickers on the sills if anyone saw it

Dave, take a look in the main thread in the events section. From about page 16 onwards people have put up pictures and videos. Some good times too.

I went up there, Saw loads of seats and raced quite a few.

Managed a best of 14.7 yesterday with terminal speed of 94mph. Quite good I thought considering im only running a map on a ko3
