I meant the dual carriage bit on the way home i suppose the prospect of pranging £90k of car has to be taken into account, esp giving your driving skill

Got a busy week or 2 but will meet up soon.

RR you can't compaire a hatchback with 110bhp more than an S2000, less trasmission losses and 100kg lighter than said S2000 - that's just stupid.

Your missing the point i was comparing my car against the s2000 because i knew what a P1 was capable of against my car. And the P1 would leave the s2000 behing using my previous experience.

Can you be sure the S2000 didn't give up? Many drivers would call it a day when something with 100bhp more and lighter than them is pulling away effortlessly I wouldn't but then I'm a different type of nutcase

He came past at banning speed but i was off the gas and braking it was never going to be even close so why run the risk of being knicked or summit going wrong. Not a bad car i just cant see it being quicker than a P1. Nice car if you want that type of thing.

I would never presume to tell someone to get on track and watch how **** there car would perform as i probably have never seen it in action. Have never driven it. Have never owned one. And dont feel the need to try and troll someone into a mines bigger than yours argument it proves nothing. Each car has its virtue whether its v-max, handling or a mixture of both. Lets hear about this track beast and see if it would be worth while meeting up for some track action or v-max action. Your car may well be to good to compete against. But i would not slag it until i know the full facts.

bttt from Moray for a slagging match, thought this had died!

If everyone who dared buy anything but a subaru left this wouldn't be half the community it is, theres got to be alternative and unbiased viewpoints in any group.

LOL @ Moray - of course man, I thought I'd have him with my Peco exahuast Door it to the left, bye now

FWIW, I'll try and keep up with a space shuttle in a 2CV for a bit of banter and will happily dispatch with far lesser cars than my own so that the young un's have something to aspire to.

Oh and my other computer (broken at the moment) has a video of a supercharged VTS nailing an e46 M3 at crail and the total build of the car would still have been under 10K including the car!
