I've just thought of an excellent way to save an absolute fortune modding my car.

I'll just post up some power graphs from the race car, pretending they are from my new age car and i will be 'the best' [:)]

Why not ? I'm happy with the way it drives with 300bhp, all thats missing is the huge bhp dyno sheet to lay on the dash at meets and for chatting about on-line [:o]

Only one flaw in that plan, I can't remember the last time the race car was on a dyno......

Andy, surely the only dyno that would handle the race car is under lock and key at NASA?

If you EVER put that on the Dyno then please let us all know. You could charge £20 admission to watch it and you'd still have most of us there to see it.

That would be a good sight to see[Y]

So how do you map it then? Surely dyno mapped cars are the fastest? [:o]

Why you asking? Is there another challanger entering? I hope so, it just makes me spend more money, and i like spending money:D]" src="/emoticons/emotion-2.gif">

Or is your recent sulk on another thread because you realise you don't have the car to be 'CHALLENGED'[:o]and you truly have given up on newages?

Would AlanG not run you close John?.

Charity rolling road day for JohnSt, AndyF and AlanG, i will pay for all of thier runs and make the money back charging a fiver admission.

Really find out out who has the Kahuna's in the classic dept

That would be a predictable outcome on a rolling road

1.Andy.F by a country mile

2.AlanG (50-100 BHP more than me)

3. Mine, 500bhp (but mines close to 1000kg) with a lower spooling faster reacting turbo.

 

 

Ultimately these three cars are built for different purposes, and the each do their own thing well.  Horses for courses,on a back road it may be more interesting

 

On a drag strip Andy would use me as practice.

On a back road, I may have the edge (remember Andy's car is not an out and out drag car, it can go round a bend)

Going to the shops Alan wins hands down :P

And the strip too

 

Many have tried and failed to get Alan to do anything like that

I don't think he wants his gearnox letting go with all the power!

Posted

Alan has a PPG gearset.... which is what I use, though a different flavour.

 

I would imagine the two car would be very similar If we 'assume' Alan's car is standard weight and around 600bhp, then there would be 5bhp/tonne difference in the two cars. If we then factor in the weight of the two drivers.. on second thoughts lets not go there..

P.S. Passed your gaff today, was over at the Paisley Daily Express working

What  was you doing there?

You should have popped in for some lunch ....i would do you a deal on that.[:D]

Ha ha  nice one John. [:(]

My car weighs 1320kg without me in it , so add another 83kg on top for me. What's the weight of your car now ?

Yours probably has a better power to weight ratio?

 

We seem to be missing another classic contender in the name of wilky. His car is up there amongst the most powerful as well is it not?

I've probably got the most powerful "4 seater" classic Impreza in Scotland though... [:D] [:D]
