    Advice on a "bet" ??

    I might be coming to USC this year. Maybe with you guys if i eventually join PSC.

    Anyway we were talking, me and 2 friends who went to Santa Pod today and saw a few 10 secondish cars and i said "heh, would be funny if i raced them"

    Conversation went on and they said they would pay for me to do runs at USC. However, in a Punto 55, hardly gonna break any land speed records.

    Is it worth doing? Costs me nothing.

    chris hit a 20.965 (he posted it up in the isc photos thread in general chat lol)

    and of course its worth it, plus, not sure what the rules are, but I THINK u could run some1 elses car lol. If so I wanna go in some1's sebbed GT

    and btw, u can come and put your car on the PSC stand even if your not a member, depending on when my holiday flights are gonna be booked for, I might be doing that

    and its only £15 for 3 runs at USC so its not too bad anyway

    Nice idea however my cars already modded a little bit anyway so i want to maintain some credability through its looks.
