weeb Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 Met me m8 wilky 2nite and he took me for a wee run in his motor! Now i have seen this car being built bit by bit over the winter and knew by the kit under the bonnet that this bad boy will fly! I met callum at a secret location on the edinburgh by pass where i got in the car and strapped myself into the passenger seat. we stealthly made our way along the bypass to keep under the police radar and not draw attention as to what was about to be unleashed! We turned off the bypass to make our way to some good fast roads. Callum advised me he would be "taking it easy". we negotiated a few corners then a straight appeared and he planted his right foot and...................................holy ****, my body was launched into the back of the bucket seat, my lungs, heart, stomach etc were flung against my back, then as if we were on rails the car zoomed round the next few corners! AWESOME! now we had caught up with two cars, u would not believe how little a gap we needed to negociate these 2 cars!!! once these 2 cars were specs in the rear veiw mirror we haulted the beast with is massive breaks to a standstill, where i was the to experience a standing start!! Now i USED to think, going down the runway on a plane was fast, gumballs car was fast but holy ****, 6k on the revs then dump the clutch, all i could do was giggle with excitement and knowing that this is the fastest "THING" i have ever been on board! Callum buddy, the car is awesome, i enjoyed the run and yeah, my car felt well slow on the way hame!!
RA Dunk Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 nice, hope i manage to get a car like that one day!! [H] wot sort of BHP figures is he putting out??
weeb Posted April 28, 2006 Author Posted April 28, 2006 if you ever experience it 1st hand you will want ur car to be tat fast and will do wotever to get it that fast! I couldnt possibly divulge callums BHP, i will tell u something for nothing tho, its more than 300bhp![]
weeb Posted April 28, 2006 Author Posted April 28, 2006 ha ha! you would have to ask the man himself as to figures. although i have been blessed with the information, i also signed an official document which means i have to keep the info to myself!
wilky Posted April 28, 2006 Posted April 28, 2006 I have no idea, need dynoed once we are up to full chat. She is over 450bhp at the moment anyway, thats for sure, but these are pub figures, once she is going the way i want ill dyno her.
