I wouldn't consider John's 54.39s slow in absolute terms considering it's on a Renix 1 OE ecu with a rev limit banging in at 6200 rpm... :roll:

come and have a go if you think you're hard enough :twisted:

PhilG does and he's running on normal road tyres

the A610 has had alot of dollars thrown at it...... big lighter brakes all round engine prep i don't know .... the driver has been racing cars in one way or another for a very long time and has the knowledge of prescott too he should be very quick..... but as simon says..... we are catching him....

i do prescott as it is what it is a great weekend ...... there's no other event like it some come close i suppose..... but i've seen my times improve year on year and it's the only sprint event i do .... so until next year 8)

after having a chat with our guest pilot on sunday, he's told me that the ideal car to run at prescott......A110 and said he could easily do a 45 second run in one as you can keep it screaming all the way to the finish line, spider you need to feed the power in coming out of every bend overdo it and you're off..... so it shows the A110 which turns up and wins every year is spot on with it's times according to that...... Mr D your mission for next year to find a A110 for the guest driver if you start now you might just find one in time :D
