Now that's a blast from the past! Everyone reckons Porka.net is the old school nowadays!

The donor car for mine doesn't get around much, I've never seen it in any old pics.

Loads of familiar names from the Polo G40 mailing list there

I think some of the panels on Steves car is now on Marshals car, and Liam's throttle body is in my G40

wow, that brings back memory's

The 2nd lot of pictures is the firts RR i turned upto off the g40 mailing list. just trying to remember where we where before yahoo, mailing list was somewhere else first.

I remember Mike from Jabba was there that day and I turned up very late and drove straight onto rollers. Only had standard car and it only put out about 85bhp. couldnt figure out why on the day. went to Jabba a few weeks later for Chip and Pulley and Stage 4, they then found hole in intercooler which was the problem.

Gordon Ray wow name from the past, his car back then was very high mileage.
Stu Baxter wow

That event was run but Matt Hayward

oh yeah cheeky git says we all look old.

Last show I saw Milo at was Gti Fest a few years back, think he's still trying to sell the car now..?

Steve Pitt has closed Pistop and now owes lots of people cash/parts etc

Paul B sold his bits after his car was crashed into and is now building a RWD VR6 mk3 golf with his new mrs

Liam runs a sucessfull engineering company called ESP Engineering

Richie is still on here occasionally- his white G is up for sale currently (in a more stock state)

Mark Hunter still lurks, as does Karl, JBM, and a few others.
