Cheers Adam I'll be around to pick it up, this is exactly what we want suppliers / manufactures submitting parts for testing .

I'm glad to see that people are thinking out of the box and realising its not all about the peak horsepower.


We will be using a stock air filter as much as we can in testing to see how far we can go and how much of a restriction it is.

I cant see us getting anything else done this week due to the rolling road being flat out and jobs being booked in, though we might have Friday as an R&D day.

Yet again I've had a frustrating weekend off trying to hook up 1100bhp on street tyres, unfortunatley I couldn't get the car to hook up it kept loosing traction after .7 of a sec, I could off blamed the track but when you have 2 racers in the same class as you producing 1600bhp (heavier cars) and can run 8.1s @ 184, blaming the track cant be used as an excuse, instead you have to think outside the box.

So with the One/Cooper we will defintley be thinking out of the box

First M45 Cooper S to run a 12 (12.96@105)
On Nitrous 11.16@123 0-100 7.1991
