Well, the Retro-Rides.com official Race Bus and crew spent a very rainy weekend at Santa Pod holed up in a caravan sheltering from torrential rain... Managed one run at 17.3 into quite a strong headwind, sadly though, not the 16 we were looking for.... not yet anyway... but we're gonna sort some dyno time out over the winter and hopefully we should be good for it next season! In between rainy spells, we were able to get a couple of pics...

Shame about the rain..... & i'm sure that 16 will come soon Loving the pictures above - the bus looks 'hardcore' - nice prominant spot for the R-R stocker Rainking - didn't you win a tune-up session through VZi?

sorry for the lack of updates chaps... but there was very little racing indeed... there was a LOT of breaking Ed though! haha! Apparently Team Smut were more hardcore than Team Filth.... we succesfully challenged this though

No more plans ATM... just a bit of setting up on the dyno for now.... cool pics dude - shame the racing was a bit of a wash out trg - the rims are porsche cups - 1's or 2's i cant remember Cheers Keef. The rims are Mille Miglia Cup 1 Replicas (I think) but they're coming off over the winter as they've seen better days... got some 16" Audi 5 Spokes to put on (thanks to Wedgedout/Cappucino Dave) Think Mille Miglia are out of business now too.. so no chance of like for like replacements

yeah, mille miglia are no more but if you want like for like replacements give me a shout - i knew some people who were dealers for them and might have some lying around. also mikey @ M7 still does replicas, and he used to have the mille miglia ones. could be worth a chat to him too.

Cool... Cheers fella. Sadly the budget doesn't stretch to new wheels at the moment... hence the Audi rims
