Default How many S4's were racing at Tivvy?

it seems almost every heat I watched seemed to have one in it, I even saw 3 of them in one heat!

if you raced an S4 at Tivvy drop a post in here.

I heard the number 10 thrown around a bit - so quoted that in my report. I meant to get a photo of all the cars together and mentioned it to jonathan, but I didn't have the time to get round to it really. Maybe Kiddy!

lol, no jonathan mentioned it honest - probably talking to you at the time whilst I was sneakily listening in!
Awesome to see it get second at its first National... And did you manage to smooth out your throttle thumb yet mate? That thing of yours was rapid.

I guess you could say they are all pre-production cars, hopefully the final car will be ready early-mid may. Just need to get the shell finalised Mr Doughty.

Default Mr Doughty

Chris,

After your first national with the S4 how would you say it compared to your last ride ie. benefits, handling etc......

Me and Alec have ran our cars into the ground really over the winter and we are both very happy with them. Results have improved by quite a bit.
I find the car very easy to drive without the need to push, the car makes you feel slow and want to push more as is the ease of it's handling etc...
Im interested to know your honest thoughts and are you looking at any improvements ????

Cheers

John Spencer
