  1. lol never noticed that. Hmmm, maybe I should nip out to the shop and buy some pop corn for this one.
  2. Miaow! Hopefully next year there will be a better selection of tried and tested cars (and drivers) available to choose from, not having your race car or the Gobstopper available team 22B was always going to find things a bit difficult, Hopefully next year the team wont suffer all the reliability problems either, Onwards and upwards I suppose
  3. Nice turbo Col (what is it a GT35?), but WTF's up with the 'diet' Irn Bru you big girl!
  4. True, and it ran like that for years without ever letting go. AFAIK Bottom line is it's the luck of the draw, some will do it others won't.
  5. Excellent results, I paid him a visit last week and left a happy man as well
  6. Seemingly it's all hear say, he hasn't actually said anything about it yet so I dont know if there's any truth in it or not, probably just rumours TBH.
  7. ^^^LoL^^^ A 10.9 @ 131mph is not to be snuffed at whether it's a corsa he raced in the final or not
  8. Hows tricks Russ, settling into the new job fine I assume?
  9. Thought Peter was heading along to this? he mentioned something about it on Scoobynet this morning.
  10. Was checking for a slot on Monday with you guys but your all booked up, Geometry isnt getting sorted till Thursday anyway.
  11. It's a different beast alltogether from the 2.0, a bit less lag, think on the old set up I wasnt getting 1 bar in fifth till over 3K now I'm getting it at 2800 this is on the TD05/06 variant of the 20G though, it seems to generate alot more torque than the 2.0 though and it's very noticable on the road, during the mapping session on one of the 4th gear runs it managed to spin the R888's around 60-70MPH (it was wet) which was a bit of a surprise but in a good way, it spools like a MOFO though the gear changes need to be fairly quick. the 550's are now maxed out and the fuel pressure was maxed out as well at 4.5bar Andy reckoned over 400 of each I'm not running silly ammounts of boost either only 1.3 on the Vpower map and 1.5 on the meth map, wouldent mind going back with a set of 740's and a stronger gearbox sometime though Pound for pound for all the money difference between a built 2.0 and a 2.1 stroker the stroker wins for me
  12. I got a wee look under the cover and under the bonnet on Tuesday, going to be something quite special by the looks of it
  13. Cheers Frank, Was in past SW on Tuesday hoping you would be there but it was not too be, I'll catch you yet
  14. It looks like a pile of **** and don't even get me started on those rear lights.
  15. People are into weiner waving and figure chasing nowadays not how to drive a moderately powered car very well and get the best from it.
  16. Well the previous 2.0 didnt spin the wheels in 4th at 60-70 MPH (it was wet for those reading) so I'm guessing yes It deffo pulls harder than a 2.0 though
  17. Big thanks to Andy.F for yesterday after some problems with the MAP sensor (which took a bit of head scratching to sort and keep the mapping session going) and a dodgy three port boost solenoid and a few other niggles the car now pulls very well indeed. Another thanks to SW Motorsport and co for building the engine and doing all of the work/fitting etc, I'm well chuffed with it Cheers lads The 2.1 gets my vote over the 2.0 now there is a big difference between the two.
  18. Fancied one of these as a tow car till I thought about fuel consumption s
  19. Your not checking your oil while the car is sitting at an angle like a slight hill or something are you? Is the engine hot or cold while checking?
  20. Do you mean a two port to a three port?
  21. Think it was a bad date TBH, Some of us (me included) already had tickets for Silverstone even before this trackday was announced, alot more would have went to T in the park which was also on, then there was the Glasgow bunch who wanted to do some sprinting at Kames, thats three things on on the same date as the trackday
