There was the obligatory chaved corsa's/nova's(some of which blisterringly quick)/saxo's.
But also a fistfull of Impreza's and Evo's, a TVR, Escorts and Fiestas, Cossie's (with that fat prick), a Clio with Audi TT engine, CRX's, a Punto, Lancia Deltas, a Beetle (with 2.1 ltr engine), Skyline's (one of which did the 1/4 in 10.04), a Van and a Ford Cortina with twin turbo, supercharger (yes TT + supercharger) and Nitros oxide and was one of the fastest and craziest there.
Was a great day overall and a brilliant turnout.

As the main problem with my escort is down to fuel tank/pump problems i was quite happy when a friend offered to make me a racing tank (hes made a few before) for pennies.
So you never know i might get it up and runing.
Also i know someone who may be scrapping a Sierra with a coswarth engine in it. How much work would it take (bearing in mind it does not have to be road legal) t swap over the box and engine?? Too much i would of thought.

No passengers allowed at York, m'afraid. If she won't get out, you don't run!
I'm not so sure about the lax scrutineering, as long as the car can do 1/4 mile in a straight line without falling apart it's ok - not like a track day.
They insisted on covered up arms when we were there too.
Next time you're all going, if I'm off (have been working all weekend) I'll come along
Skyline cinq, you got to have the best cinq going! I haven't laughed, so much in ages. I'm glad you all had a laugh up york
That number plate is genius!

I would like to point out that you are allowed DIESEL cars as a friend of mine ran his Rover 200 TD with NOS on the day & acheived a 15.3 1/4 mile time.
The cars will be split into the different catagories, you will see this if you go to the web site: www.yorkraceway.com the Cinq is in the 1600cc or below with no Turbos or NOS...these are called 'The Pocket Rocket Class'
Most of those Graphics on my car are made on magnetics so i can take them off whenever i want, so don't scratch your head if you ever see the car with no graphics on
The Number plate was made up by me on the day as a **** take, but i'm sure that it really does exsist though
