Redline magazine needs you!

[DanW@FastFord]

Hi -

The guys on Redline have asked me to put a post up to see if anyone can help with a feature this coming Thursday - yes, this week!

They need a modified Escos (doesn't have to be too modified, but can't be standard) and you need to be able to get to Santa Pod for 8.30am. It will be all day, and each car will get a minimum of 2 pages devoted to it, plus all the group shots, and the cover shot.

They also want to time the cars, nothing hard, and only a few times each; you don't have to go balls out for the launches if you don't want to, it's just to add a bit more depth to the feature.
They're using the strip, but backwards, the half mile slowdown lane basically, using their timing gear, and proper paramedic safety dude.

Anyone interested needs to email steve.neophytou@futurenet.com or call him on 01225 442244

I have no more info than this, so I won't be able to answer any queries, Steve's your man with the answers!
