Just seen this online from minimag today:



"Well, now the wait is finally over, and John has been proved right. On the dyno the engine produced a huge 310bhp at 22psi, making it the world’s first 300+bhp A-Series without nitrous, and giving the car a mind-blowing power to weight ratio of 586bhp/ton."

Hopefully it will put in an operational appearance at Avon this year. *smiley*

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

Yawnnn, old news.

There is already a thread on here somewhere with the dyno result.

I too am looking forward to seeing it run and having a beer with John at avon.

I would like to see it lined up next to the don, no disrespect to John but u think the don would still win, possibly even without gas

I have no question of a doubt and agree with this statement Jack. Carl and Tom are crafty badgers indeed.

there would always be excuses, goldie is still a road car after all
you could argue that the don was, it had an mot and the lot, it is clearly not a road car though
the don however is pure epic'ness its just spot on, it is soo over the top it looks like it should be like that
goldie is beautiful road car with 'the ultimate' road engine imo different types of minis imo...

Yes i moved to the darkside *happy*

Both built to run in a class. They are the same. You can hardly say its a road car!

The don is just more "functional"

Am i right with my information here. The don was running 12.7`s on 500bhp/tonne.

Its now running 11.1 Why do i have the feeling Carl and Tom have managed to pull a jammy 60hp out of somewhere?

I'm not going to get into the road car debate again. However the jump in times is down to tyres and nothing else.

Way i see it if they have a ticket why not run against each other both with slicks and with road tyres that would be the ultimate test
