Hi Clive,
I've been to RCMS today to pick some bits up. Saw your car too. I have to say that is one of, if not the, nicest P1's I've seen to date.

Will be a stunning car when finished

Thanks Daz.

RCM have jet washed it for me. You would not have said that if you saw the poor old girl when I dropped er off, bless it.

As you mentioned, it should be a right babe when finished. It does come up lovely when I spend a full day on it. Engine bay takes a fair bit of work to keep like that though.
Not uncommon to see me on engine at midnight. Busy life

More bits for your car mate ?

Dont have the "quickest" wagon anymore, that goes to Morbs, just twigged i have the most powerfull that i know of, but then the last time i did a quarter, i did a 11.03 running full road trim, including spare wheel, thats was with about 550bhp back in May 2007. I just got sick of breaking uprated gearboxes (5 in one year!)

How about TAPS (Totally Addicted to Powerful Scoobs)

Steven

ps Clive, i post as Steven on 22B, and my spec in my profile on here is somewhat out of date

Yep lots of tape, and help from good friends, including bending the steering arm back straight, got me back on the circuit.

Idea is knock a load of weight off the car, which weighed 1400kg with me in it as it finished TA2008, and also increase the power to 650~700 and improve power delivery, together with a change in appearance, and other improvements like dry sump etc.

Nice vids, huh yes I have seen you on 22B. I too was beside you at Brands in Olly's pit. Good luck mate.

P20 how many divisions in TA, is it three?, and would a budget of say £20K cover a season inclusive of all expenditure? (trouble free relating to shunts etc).

Julian D is running 500+ at the wheels. Most of his work has been done by TDI Ltd at Thurrock. He was talking about doing time attack before the down turn.
Deani age should also be up there soon once he get things sorted.

Clive, yes there are three divisions this year. Cost wise, assuming you have all the racewear, and saftey things in the car, then you are realistically looking at about £1000 per round imo after entry fees and excluding any issues.

2007 cost me £16000+ due to problems!
2008 cost about £6000 plus another £3-£4k on safety improvements and tweaks during the year to cure chasis issues.
