Thanks for booking Castle Coobe for me Roland. It is our National Finals day at Santa Pod but I dont mind coming down so you can make me look slow / stupid

[quote=roland2003;3158085]Loui.... i dont think Paul is coming on the track, ?...unless he sends us the £ or books it himself? [quote]

I didn't realise your memory was so bad Roland, so what itis it to be??

John.

[Cooooooperslad]

Will be intrested to see results

[Paul@1320]

John,

Cant believe the above is your first post, I thought you were a Mini2 veteran.

What spec is your car?? leather interior aircon glass roof etc etc, ifI remember rightly its an 03? hasit got a lsd?

Any other info you can help inthe prediction

[minihartge]

Yeah i know i always keep an eye on whats going on here but never actually take part for some reason? Yeah its got leather air con sun roof satnav but i have taken the back seats out. The engine has a 17% pulley grs intercooler snoot boots alta intuction kit 63mm throttle body fast road cam and big valve head. full miltek exhaust with manifold and a lightend crank pully and rolling road remap. Plus i have tein coilovers and team dymamics 18" wheels but sadly no lsd cos its a 52 plate. What do you recon? any chance of getting a good time or not?
John.

[Paul@1320]

I think you'll defintley be the wrong side of 2800lb and you might be nearer the 2900lb mark with you in the car.

Having said this you should be able to go 100+ and obtain ets in the 13s how deep you go in the 13s will rely on how good your 60fts are, Isellem in the states has gone 2.0s with an open diff but a later 05 gearbox.

If you have any tyres from your competion days kicking around it might be worth bringing them with you.

My guess would be 13.77 @ 102

[minihartge]

Cheers for that mate. Na i dont have any tyres that will fit my car so im gong to have to make hard work of it. . so your saying that ive just got to much weight in my car really. And do you think the facelifted gearbox wiil make a lot of difference? Oh and before i forget do you have a facelifted supper charger hanging about that i can buy so i can fit before i go cos the main bearings in mine dont sound too good.
John.

Ill be there wont be running the motor on the strip as i need to shoot early!

1320's pit b*tch once again !

[lucachiarelli]

Hi i would like to come and watch the show. Can i just turn up or do i need to get tickets.

[Paul@1320]

No just turn up, dont forget your driving license just in case you want to have a go

[minihartge]

You dont have a face lifted supercharger for sale do you as mine isnt sounding too good?
John.

[Jaw_F430]

Do I need to bring a helmet with me just in case I go on the strip? Never been before



Regards

James
