she's beating folk int he class above anyway so wont be a huge step 
I have plans for the car... 
It would need a better cage, get it seam welded too. GRP front end, flat floor, rear diffuser, high rear wing... more lightness
engine - cams and pullies
Dream - paddle shift sequential (if lottery win)

And to bring in a Pro driver is taking the piss. Quite funny that he got his arse handed to him on a plate.
I can understand the bloke not driving it himself. Just because he's got money and can afford a good car doesn't make him a quick driver.
At least he is honest enough to admit he's not the best driver. Club class probably isn't the place for pro drivers though either.
but I don't think it's wrong that he didn't drive it, if he knows he'd be shit.

So you're not in club pro now?
It's Club, Club Pro, Pro aint it?
- would've thought your car was too powerful / fast for club.

I too think out car is club pro spec.... but its no where neat the most ' spec'd ' car in club.... so its not as well spec'd as any Club Pro cars... but is towards the top end on Club.
We are still running std ARB's fer feck sake
I think we are about 150bhp down on the other white R32 GTR, and around 100bhp on the Black R33 GTR. 700bhp yellow evo, 600+ bhp silver evo 6. 800bhp supra.
By no means the most powerfull.... we just upped it to 610bhp at the flywheel before this round.
We seem to have done things differently to others... they go power first, weight and handling later.
Fee has been in the car for 3 years no - some susp tweaks over the years, less weight every year and gradually upped the power. 2008 was 410bhp, 2009 was 480bhp, 2010 570bhp for 2 rounds, 611 for last round.

weight, handling, braking should be first ona race car.
Power should be the last thing to worry about, esp if your Norris Evo and can't use any of it

The reason he doesnt drive it is he is a short fat twat!
If you look in the last pic he is at the front right of the car, skid head bloke.
He puts all teh money into his car and seems to try act as if he works for regal and sells all there stuff, i know he gets labour free and cheaper parts from them but still what is the point in entering your car and not driving it.
And as always the power figurs will be well off as Regals figures are a load of shit!
