Three to choose from for me....

Tommo's Flymo at Curborough... first Westy i've ever cr*ped myself in.

Del's with the VX and launch/traction control at the start line at Curborough.

Rob's X-Flow... full credit for building a high powered x-flow to compete against newer 16v engines.

first time I went to Croft to watch the speed series think would have been 2004 ish ? ? I remember getting exited over Smithys yellow Vauxhall powered car that looked quick and very well bolted together too  :t-up:  :t-up:

dunno what had happened as this is the only but strange pic i have of it ???

I dont think thats Smithy's car. His had blue wings

The car that does it for me is Simon Thornley's 1900cc K series powered prelit

Two spring to mind, a carboned-up Honda engined beastie observed in Mickmade's garage, and as a  proper allround track and road Westie, local boy Luapno's very, very nicely spec'd yellow Durabang with full cage.... :love:  :love:  :love:

better be quick Mike XI's are soon to be history  :down:  :down:  :down:  :down:  :bangshead:  :bangshead:  :down:

do you really believe that?  im sure if you wave enough money at westfield then they will make you one.  its not like they are going to destroy the moulds now is it?

Wanna bet  ;)  ;)  :down: and fibreglass bodywork is no longer produced by WSC Ltd. its outsourced  ;) not a case of destroying moulds simply that they have a lifespan and once up they're gone  ;)

I will put in my vote;

Garry Bunn's Cossie powered black beauty - just love the sound that thing makes - and he is getting a little old for so much power now and maybe needs to be thinking about giving it to me :p

Also - fair play - Carbon obsessed Mick can certainly screw an excellent car together. :love:  :love:

Finally - Ash Mason's XE powered silver beasty.  It was this maniac who first introduced me to "upgradeitus" - the car may not have looked the prettiest thing out there (for the sake of a respray) but it was screwed together with NASA like attention to detail.  Oh - and it b****y flew too! :cool:

The car was originally Smithy's and then Richard Carroll and the photo was when a suspension bolt failed at Farmhouse, Harewood hillclimb

The yellow and black JC car was mine that I rebuilt completely ( it was stored in a heap at factory)and installed a 1548cc Busa which was ballistically quick and I won class F 2 years running with it. The car was W966RWP and was the original Westfield factory demo car. I think it is now in France

Not sure its meant to have a winner to be honnest.

But its got to be said it turning in to a Mickmade lovefest.

He does build sweet cars though.

Looking at Terry's car reminded me of the engines previous house.

Tom's road car with the millington and sequential was just insane.  Another quality Playschool production
