~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 WR1 and P1 giving it some........was it you ? Wr1 was drifting nicely but never when i had my camcorder on him . The P1 sounded awesome and was spitting some new flames on gear changes. Never got time to speak to anyone ( god damn these 2hr sessions) which annoyed me. I was with my mate in the red Mini that was getting more attention that anything else parked in the car park. It has a Honda Type R engine with throttle bodies and weighs hee-haw. We ripped everthing on the track a new one Even the Ferrari Modena didn't stand a chance. We were running slicks on the front wheels and got pulled by the Feds on the way home for a blown exhaust which explained why if got progressively noisier during the session.... Felt for the fellow with the S2k who looked as though he'd hit the tyre wall A great night but not long enough - some serious kit on parage include a Challenge Stradle which moistened my loins Funniest thing was that I was following Ian( Mini owner) in my Scooby back to Aberdeen. The Feds watched Ian go by with me in hot pursuit. We were not speeding so when the cops turned round and tailed us I was amused as to why they were following me. Turns out after they blasted past me and nabbed Ian that they were listening to my exhaust note. They thought my exhaust was goosed but it was Ians who was miles ahead. They only found out after they asked Ian where all his spares were ( tyres, tools etc) and he told them that i was his support vehicle in the Scooby. then they twigged ! Cal

SCOOBYD00 Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 First time out last night ( Silver Classic ) great laugh.
clutdav Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 SO then Cal did you get a load of camcorder footage? And when are we going to see this appearing on your website? Dave
st3ph3n Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 Are we talking an old mini or a new mini with a type R engine in it? Either way it must be like the proverbial off a shovel. Will we be seeing you on track later in the month Cal?
Gumball Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 was it Paul in the WR1 and Youngo in the P1? own up you guys
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted September 6, 2005 Author Posted September 6, 2005 Yeah it was the old Mini...........didn't get any in-car footage but have it against the Ferrari Modena coming outta the hairpin I'll get it on my website soon Cheers Cal
sheep Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 That mini was unreal!!!! Good turn out aswell.
MY94 Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 Thanks Cal,I wondered what they were.Those Ultima GTR's looked great.Really was a good night.
st3ph3n Posted September 6, 2005 Posted September 6, 2005 Ultima holds the world record for 0-100-0. Less than 10 seconds. It can also hold ridiculous lateral-gs. Z cars down south bought one and took out the big weighty yank engine and strapped in 2 1300cc Hayabusa Lumps, 1 powering the back wheels and one powering the front. There's no official figures for it, but I imagine it would destroy pretty much anything.
~ ~ Cal ~~ Posted September 7, 2005 Author Posted September 7, 2005 Mini clip in here ..............see first video link ! Holy fook Enjoy Cal
Gumball Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 A Car after my own heart. Marcs 370bhp STI8 !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sounds nice
sma01 Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 it was indeed Paul and youngo in the scoobs giving it some, was speakin to youngo earlier today and he said it was a good night, and both cars were going very well and smoking some expensive metal... i believe the extremely quick 205 gti was on track for this one as well
st3ph3n Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 Quality cal. Showed it to my mate in Canada that's a big Honda fan and he loved it too. There's no one can quite make a NA engine like Honda.
Boyakasha Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 << A Car after my own heart. Marcs 370bhp STI8 !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sounds nice Gumball >> Would have been better saying 400bhp
Gumball Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 << Would have been better saying 400bhp >> Im sure it would have been better mate. If you had clicked here andy instead of here 370bhp then it would have been....... LOL
steven_young Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 << there are no fast 205 gti's >> lol, well the red one on the track had 317bhp, on the road pulled up along side me and gumball looked at us pulled away then slowed down while we are still going for it gave me the thumbs up then pulled away again. So a 205gti that can make a 400bhp scooby look very slow and pass a ferrari 355 with ease on the back straight of knockhill in my book is very quick
steven_young Posted September 7, 2005 Posted September 7, 2005 << was it Paul in the WR1 and Youngo in the P1? own up you guys >> yes it was me and paul
Iaing Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 Hey Cal, nice vid. iains also a mate of mine (small world!). I have yet to see Ians mini in the flesh, will need to get a run out in it sometime. Hows your car doing? Any mods planned? Iain
