Hi Fella's, .back after a nightmare week in Sheffield, and back up there next week too
Taken on a contract that has rapidly turned into chaos. Was thinking of contacting Jeff Tracey to see if Scott & Virgil could lend a hand !
Fai: Hi mate. Spoke to Olly today and everything is going ok. Will be ready for collection soon. Just waiting for the word

From: All over the place, trying to stop putting the miles on!
I must say i'm shocked to still be in 14th place on the street challenge list with all you big power chaps around, especially as i have not run since the start of the season due to work commitments.
I wish i could afford a 2.5, but the suspension needs doing first!
Nice cars BTW, i'm sure there will be a lot more to come with driver training

My pal is still in 8th in his now dead 400bhp Terzo actually. However that drivetrain will live again soon I hope in our new car

We have never known the exact bhp of my P1 before it went back to RCM (current), but rough estimations from Matt & Dave Rowe were 420 ish and that was a quick car at that power.
Someone mentioned that RCM's brand new turbo kit had already been fitted to another car, but it was not the full kit with waste gate mods etc.
Matt told me himself that my car is the first to be fitted with the complete new kit, and that would explain the duration it has been there.
I have many "proper" petrol heads as mates, and all of them without exception said the P1 was the quickest thing they had ever sat in, so when I collect it this time it should be totally mad
Will let you know soon

Are you going to get some dyno figures before you pick it up ?

Yes mate. Just want to keep the car for a while through the summer.
I have further options down the line as you know, Meth, NOS, r/fuel, larger turbo etc but I want to learn the new feel, enter as much as work will allow me and have a blast. We are snowed under with it at the moment though.
Bearing in mind it is, and always will me my road car I don't want to go too mad.
A roll cage and weight reduction are issues I want to try and avoid to help retain a genuine P1 appearance. As you know Clive, Sy has done an awesome job to retain the cars standard looks, and that's a good route.
Other than my FMIC and brakes the car looks pretty normal.
If I decide to lose weight I would go down the c/f route.
A chunk of guys dress their cars to look fast & racey, and there's nothing wrong with that, but me, I'm the total opposite.
