I'm sure it would be better than the 1.3 Fiesta with a thirst for oil I've tracked the last two times. Indicated 90 on the pit straight.

i try not to think about drive it hard... cant afford the fuel prices now..she only does about 22mpg around town now. i dread to think what would happen if i nailed it.... project zetec will be on the road sometime this summer i hope then we can play..

cheers terry

Aye, you can count me in for that

By the way folks, I live precisely 2 minutes from the circuit, so any tools (up to and including engine crane) are close by.

Today i have been trying to make my car combe legal
Bodge No1

Bodge No2

If all else fails bodge No 3

Is No. 1 an attempt to use exhaust gases to blast the testing person into the next county?

I quite like 'bodge number one'!

I hope it works
So i can use the full boost and nitrous down the straights
I still think i will be black flagged though

Do we owe you some money Mart?

Propshaft was collected by Dave Mac yesterday...

I'm still hesitant to use the nitrous on mine until I've had a bit more moneysworth enjoyment out of the car as it is...have you used your's much Darren?

It'll be one helluva lap though.

MONEY! yes please.

I won't know the exact cost until the money gets extracted from our account. If you can all send me £25 per session, that should cover it. If it's any more, or less, we can sort it out on the day.

I used to use it all the time on the old engine
Have only used it a couple of times on this engine and it hit the boost cut instantly which is quite a violent cut
I have since upped the boost cut so i am going to use it at coombe and see how it goes...
