MikeW Posted June 6, 2004 Share Posted June 6, 2004 For anybody wanting to race in the Grads this is a great buy. It's a quick car, well looked after and very competitive in the right hands. MikeW 1600 VX Black/Ali Race No 110 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wfarrell Posted June 6, 2004 Share Posted June 6, 2004 ...of course, it's not so competitive in the wrong hands (possibly mine for example) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boogs Posted June 8, 2004 Author Share Posted June 8, 2004 The Graduates is the ideal place to start racing. Forget about waiting until 2005/6 to do the Academy as you will get just as much, if not more, help and assistance from the Graduates club. And you wont be wasting the next year or so waiting to race (and save £8-10K) but could be racing in France with us all at the beginning of July! As part of the deal on this car I would be happy to give full support and advice on race/test days as I shall be racing in Supergrads class at the same meeting. I will even throw in space under my awning, coffee and burgers! Edited by - boogs on 15 Jun 2004 16:18:07 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin H Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 Careful what you say about the burgers, or you'll have Fat Shed & Misty fighting over the car and eating £'000s worth of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buroz Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 We have Gypsy Lil doing our catering... although there's no harm in getting a second supply. ...we have our figures to maintain, after all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeW Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 Hope you've checked with Sue before volunteering her services boogs. Racing is far more fun than polishing and 'blats' and you will be amazed how much you will learn. MikeW 1600 VX Black/Ali Race No 110 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeW Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Can't believe someone hasn't snapped this up already. Less than £10k and you could be RACING in one of the best series anywhere. Pretty bullet proof engines and ideal for L7Club Class 1 sprinting as well. MikeW 1600 VX Black/Ali Race No 110 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buroz Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 So don't you think that my car is any good then, Mike? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Gregory Posted June 11, 2004 Share Posted June 11, 2004 Reminds me of the joke about the woman who buys her husband 2 new ties for his birthday. Obviously he wears one of the ties when they go out for dinner that night. The wife's comment is: 'what's wrong with the other one then......'
