Your Best Times in a turbo mini and nothing else
Turbo Mini Forums

Not being funny chap, but this is a forum for turbo MINIS.

I am sure your Vauxhall whatevers are very impressive and all the rest of it, but to quote Dave, "Save it for MIGweb".

Metro turbo weekend driver,Mini turbo in the making again!

Jacked one end of mine up the other day. Furthest its moved in about 18 months.....

Love it Rich!

Maybe when YOU actually build something, instead of surfing on your mates achievements, you just might actually have something to shout about?

Just a thought...


I'm very impressed with anyroad going car that runs a sub-13, let alone a low 12. Threats / claims / expectations just don't cut it however IMHO. Full Credit to yourself for turning out an impressive spec sheet.

"13.38 @ 111mph class X because its not a mini, tacky jailbait nicky nova, standard diff, shagged engine running more boost than it should have been. that was santapod last year. Also 2litre 16v SR nova on 45's, (alex flower has been out in it lol) 14.2 @101 mph

Only been once this year, 15.23 in my astra van, standard 2litre 16v, standard van... I beat a nissan 200 thingy... "

This post is "Your Best Times? "

Now being a Mini Turbo forum, Why are we talking about novas and astra vans ????????

Who cares about them, if we did we would be on another forum talking about them there! or have they got "A" series turbo engines in them................are sorry yes....... maybe that's it!

"13.38" hell! thats not to clever when you think there are minis on here not far off or around that time with 1293 cc engines with sh-tting 5 port heads still!

Don't bite Rich...

Just because you have got a mini with a vauxhall engine in it... to combine two things you like... Others are bound to slate

But there are apropriate forums to do this.

A person who doesn't know the difference between an Innocenti rod and regular 1300 rod, should be quiet anyway.

and your saying this isnt one of them?

WTF are you talking about Alex?

Nothing wrong with putting a different engine in a mini - least of all a decent powerful unit like the LET.

Chatting about how great your mates nova or your own van is on a mini Forum isn't keeping in line with the site - which last time i looked was called 'turbo minis'

Dave if you want to be that narrow minded and pathetic then if you notice this thread is titled "Your Best Times?" in the "Track, Drag & Race" Section.

If you want it mini specific then maybe you should get AlexB to edit the title to ""Your Best Times in a turbo mini and nothing else?"

:p

Alex - awaiting the "this is a mini formun and every single post is on topic" reply!

Alotta hand bag flail'n around yer!

Just out of interest I'm gonna whip my wooden spoon out here and give things a stir...since this is a forum for Turbo minis, I take it people would be allowed to chat about a Turbo Bini?!!!

Also - how did JF get on with the Scooby v mini timings, anybody know?

Choppo

Hannibal: There are two ways we can do this: the easy way and the hard way. In a few minutes my friends and I are going to come down on you like your worst nightmare. You're gonna wish the Earth had opened up and swallowed you whole.
bad guy: What's the easy way?
Hannibal: That WAS the easy way.

What constitutes a "proper" car is very much a matter of personal opinion.

You stated they were 1300GT rods with pistons. I only bought the freakin' rods because of the pistons..

They're different. At least now you know ...

I think that maybe we should all go on auntie trisha's show, have a chat, shed some tears, have a group hug and hear her words of wisdom - may even get a free mug of tea off the floor manager!!

Anybody want to email the show:

yous are all arguing like little kids!

thats wots wrong with the site! everyone at each others throats!

nova or mini or woteva respect to the big times and people not doing them times shut the fcuk up! me included after i have had my 2p worth!

giallofly god of turbo mini!
beat him and you can rant and rave till then shut it!
accept others have other hobbys like me and my novas but thats bit off topic however no need to go all out about it saying this is a mini forum get off to mig etc.....coz be left with no members as ive noticed others on site have other cars that they race or mention on site all the time and they seem to get let off with it!!!

COULD BE PEOPLE ARE SCARED OF A NOVA BEATING THEM!!!LOL

Your right Alex - I really should be...but the bickering is sooo funny!!

best bit of posting ive read for ages.lol.

my 2p worth=

personally im only interested in reading about minis, not to fused what engines in them but obviously im into turbo minis hence thats why im here. but big power out of a 2ltr 16v engine to be honest doesnt really impress me that much but i find it quite amasing when people are getting 150-200 bhp out of a 1.3cc a series 8v engine

you wouldnt go into a hairdressers to buy a pork chop! would you?

no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

if they sold the best pork chops in town you would :p
