RCM offer a hand-cutting service for R888's - presumably to aid with standing water dispersal. Does anyone have these modified ones fitted... and do they help with wet traction, etc.?

 

As opposed to say quality water, Volvic maybe

 

Just back from Zen, Solaris now in

 

lol

 

Whats it like ??? or will I have to wait till tomorrow to find out

 

Had no time to play yet as was raining when I drove back. No numbers as not been on rollers today but I do have a new high boost setting, seems quite swift

Also the new rear end looks rather good I think



Clive

 

Very nice MH

See you on sunday.

 

Looking good Clive, bet you can't wait

Door Panels thought they would have been launched

Have you now got a cell in the boot?

All the best for Sunday matey!

 

If someone had had their way at Zen yesterday door cards etc would have gone No fancy tank for this year. Plenty of future plans but only so much you can do with limited time and funds. Still got to pay for my wedding ! Only 8 weeks to go !

 

Would be nice to have a train of nice scoobys at on your special day Clive

 

I am puzzled.

Every time I take the car out the header tank is leaking and the antifreeze creates HUGE amount of work removing the staining from the inlet mani, ABS, header tank and ceramic coated headers.

Renewed all three clips to the three hoses, the cap is tight. Where the hell is it coming from ??????

 

Hi Clive

I had the same problem when i had one fitted a few years ago,found out it was leaking from one of the welded joints.Went back to the standard one and never had a problem since.

I have just run it up and placed blue tissue under the top nozzle and I have the same problem Marti.
Sending a new header tank down.

Trouble is the anti freeze has stained the inlet manifold and nothing seems to polish it out ? did that happen with you mate and if so what did you use?.

Redline out on 27th this month. Go to page 60 and it may have a bit on our cars coming out in the following issue.
Octobers Redline is in WH Smiths from the 27th August

 

Had the same problem on the Kit car Clive.
I ended up just lowering the fluid level a little to accommodate the expansion.
But it is possible that you may have a pinhole in the welders.
Get a pressure test done on the C-Spec.

 

Hi Clive

I used Autosol from halfords in a tube on the inlet manifold ,then polish it with Magiuse fine polish.

Will have a look at redline when it comes out in a few days .
Roll on 27th August ,be good to see how the pics come out

 

Hi Hugh, enjoy ya holiday mate?

Just been out and replaced it with original h/tank.

The weld was leaking. Just pot luck, probably made 3000 that all proved ok

 

Exactly what I have been using mate, Autosol then Meg's and it still wont come out
Will keep doing it until it does.

Re: Redline, was speaking with SleeperSy who's car appeared in Redline, and he said will we receive a mag through the post accompanied by a CD with many Pro photo's

My Mrs & I have a real nice pic frame in our bedroom that contains a picture of when we were married. I will sort out the best pic of the P1, print it and swap the photo's and see what she thinks

Watch this space

 

How did TOTB go fella's ??

 

Ollie won overall but MLR won the team event...I've yet to see the results though.

 

We were second overall.

No idea on individual places. I was going well on top speed at one point with 3 runs pretty close 164/164/165. Best 1/4 was 11.1, handling I did 5 x 44's (tyres let me down there big style, will teach me to invest in proper rubber) Still, car was ultra reliable and was a great experience

 

11.1...so close!

 

I know Still first time using launch control so pretty happy. Few tweeks to come and a minor spool issue to sort and then the addition of flat shift will see easy 10's

Few vids here that my pal took -

will have a look at those this afternoon, you are going to have to change your target from 10's to mid 10's soon

 

but no cigar!!

 

Now then, pop that wooden spoon away Daz

 

It is already mate

 

I think it's on loan from Mr Forrest

 

you must be itching to get back to Pod now then
