You will never hit the top end on Brunters or at Elvington!!!!
Beardy when I'm all running well (just needs tyres and box swapping over) I'll drop you a line!
Get some interesting vids made!

If you go bruntingthorpe let me come i live only 5 miles from it, oh and being able to do 60+ in second is a massive advantage, i could do 64+ in 2nd in my GSI

Fair play mate, get what your saying about it only being a bit of fun 
but a 2.0ltr 16v corsa does 60 in 6's when it weighs about 800kg's
your cars gonna wiegh a hell of a lot more than that

I've got an AP22, the model above which can log and upload times to a PC. 0-60, 0-100, 1/4 mile, time between speeds, etc..
It doesnt get plugged in anywhere. You configure it based on car weight, rolling resistance, etc.

if its birmingham s's or birmingham wheels than id advise on not going as stated above it is not safe, easily 50%of the cars are nicked and get drove about by lunatics, the other 50%are total idiots anyway who just try and race anything, there are loads of accidents up there and even more police with the aid of a helicopter recording you. but it is your choice. last time i went there my car got smashed up by a bunch of pikeys who were pissed and thought it would be fun. police were watching but told me because of the nature of the vicinity i was in that it was my own fault and i was too move on or be done for breaching the peace! now theres peace of mind for you incase you thought about going!

Do you really think anyone believe's this is the fastest corsa in the UK? No. I was merely saying that Paul J cannot read.

Tim as for rev limiter god knows as my rev counter can only read 4cly and when you rev it the looks like it limits at about 12,000rpm
