144 on Tour

Well, having sailed through the MoT, I gave the car a quick wash and brush up before dragging it up to Cheshire;

and brought her back looking just a little less shiny;

Had a geat day out, car went well although driver and navigator let her down a bit.

Was properly beaten overall in the event by the totally standard 144 owned by Fred Winter, just goes to show it doesn't matter how fast you make it go, if it's pointing in the wrong direction....you lose!!
