*****, Wouldn't mind still can't get over last week when you ripped up that hill and left me struggling! I need more power!!!

Andy i was in frydays today and a lad with glasses was talkin about scoobys and said his mate had one and looks after it when his mate is on hoilday.
Then he said that he makes his own race cars which are very fast!
I asked him this mates name and he said it was and it was Andy.

Small world!!

I reckon a with a bit of sorting, you`ll be able to get your car to run a lot better.
If you can get a free morning or afternoon, i`ll have a look with you and Dale.
He charges £20 an hour, but may do a freebee, but it seems like your car needs a bit of optimising.

Chaz, leave a text and I`ll call you back, cos I`m in work.
Dale usually works mon-fri.
I`m sure he can book you in before the 26th.
Give him a call 1st thing monday and sort something out.

Hes just done a minor service and check over of a friends Scooby(Nev) for £70...

Speak to you tomorrow.
(I`m in work 7-7 so whenever suits you)

If you get the car running at standard level of tune,it will be alot quicker...
Theres loads of checks you can do..

1)make sure all the boost hoses are tight/not split or perished
2)check that the throttle butterfly opens fully with the accelerator fully depressed
3)are the spark plugs ok?
4) if you car is cutting out/misfiring.. are the coil packs worn out.

the list goes on... if you get some free time I can show/explain etc.
All the list above have happened to Scoobies that I know of, so its worth checking.
