I like the bit Mike Pye put - that we formed as a reaction to the VWDRC! Very tactful! ;) Superb article, and perhaps we'll see some of the non-VW racers taking VWs a bit more seriously now! :D

They've always taken quick VWs seriously – what they can't get their head round is 20-second scrap 'racing'... ::))

yep, well spotted! The old times are listed because the new motors haven't been run yet, but in those cases it does say "new engine" in the tech boxes. First meeting May Bank Holiday! ;)

How come your not racing this year? Because of the US episode?  :( If we can help in any way just ask!  :)

Yeah we'll try and come down for a day at Gary's Picnic, I think its the Main Event the weekend before (speaking of which are any of you guys coming? I know Martin Taylor is entered :) ) so we won't come down for the whole weekend as I need all the time I can get to get our bug ready! We are going to try and get it ready for testing at the European Finals  ;D Fingers crossed anyway!
