very respectable time from a standard engined 306 though!
Its suppose to be but it doesnt go round the corners that well as was pushing it all the way around Silverstone, it was only having me on the straights! But them Castle Combe lot as nutters around there as they race there all the time, there were 2 Sandy engined 1.4 Fiesta and they were crazy, using the grass and more!
Thanks I am very pleased with how the car goes! And it still has just standard 306 rear shocks!!
I was also very pleased to be within 0.08sec of the Ford Anglia of the guys in the garage next door, as they are always going on about how rear wheel drive is best! yet a £4000 306 with only 178bhp and standard rear shocks can get that close to their times and they have a 2.4 red top Vauxhall lump with just under 300bhp and have spent £40k+ on the car!
