cheers guys the car has every chance of outclassing its driver - if I want to see how fast it will really go I need someone like Paul to drive it - I'm far to mechanically sympathetic!

Paul - I know you are just being encouraging!! - hows your motor going have you been able to give it any practise runs on some "private" test tracks to get a feel for it this year? Ive never heard of 'mechanically sympathetic' good phrase but fuck knows what it means. lol My car has just hit the road today, need to stretch the new timing chain before I can get a feel for how good it is, but it does feel livelier than before. The Swifty box is superb, it might aswell be sequential the change is so quick and smooth, I love it. Oh, got pulled by the law within 150 yards of my house. They said "That sounds rough mate." I said "Cheers it cost me a fortune to make it sound like that!" No probs though, they checked I had insurance and MOT then asked if they could sit in it. Paul I seriously doubt it! |
