Hi Dave
Hope you car will be ready but if not you are welcome to the trip with me. If you require any taxiing around to sort your car out give me a shout.

Hi all,

Went to Banzai magazine shoot on Monday and recorded a 0-60 time of 4.88 and 1/4 mile in 13.43 secs.Not to bad for first attempt and an old 94 WRX with only air filter and exhaust mods.Will be interesting to see true power figures on rollers.

Colin.

Pretty impressive!

Sounds like i'm in for a beating on the rollers. Maybe a few backhanders to the road operator will keep me safe...

Can we invite Justys?!

That sounds suspiciously like a dig at the fridge...

I have arranged for them to swithch the rollers off on your stolen Jap mobile at high speed...

Noooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!

Its not fair

2 incidents have now put me going on the rollers in doubt

The bloody thing has blown a driveshaft seal (how much grease!!!) and i've just managed to take a massive chunk out of the sidewall of one of the tyres (less than 1k miles) arrrrrrggggggghhhhhhhh

tyre won't be a huge problem but the seal could mean i'm watching

plantie will be interesting to put 2 rb5 wrs against each other just hope i can get it fixed in time

Plantie, nice one! Incoming>>>>>>>

DMB, bad news mate, and a poor excuse at that. Let me know how you get on. I take it you mean the Constant Velocity (CV) boot? Not too difficult to do, can you not get the guys at work to do it?

Hi Guys

I'm not going to be able to make it until 11am, is that too late as I'm only coming to watch and introduce myself?

Car will hopefully be back from the menders by then and so am prepared to suffer the woeful embarrassment of getting less power than bobs near standard P1!

I'd borrow my mates golf but i don't think it would help my cause

Will be wearing my extra thick padded trousers so the **** kicking i'm gonna get doesn't hurt too much
