TBH, I wouldn't put it past myself doing something like that.
I did indeed just leave an old Mk.2 XR2 runabout in my street... The tax ran out... Some neighbour complained... Got clamped, got a ticket, and had to pay over £200 to get it unlocked, towed away and scrapped!
Only bought the damn thing for about £70!!!
Lazy procrastination doesn't pay!

Busy week for the car and me, tfs, teg sport, ian (bod).
Realised there was a test and tune day at santapod coming up on 21st sept that worked with my mapping schedule perfectly so rather than the relaxed fix the box when I get around to it, it became a rush and last minute dot com.
Thanks to teg sport for building the box nice and quick.
I didnt want to risk it being delayed by a courier so dropped it up there and then on wednesday headed off to collect it (2x650mile round trips). Had a busy mapping day at tfs on the thursday so whilst I mapped the cars stew and ian fitted the box. Clutch was being a pain in the *** and box came out and back in several times late into the night to get it sorted and I cancelled the dyno time booked for my car at surrey rolling road to tweak for the new exhaust and I headed north with a working car strapped on the trailer at 10ish and started the task of searching for a hotel that had a room spare and space for car and trailer and that I could be happy leaving it.
Friday morning came way to quick and rolled up at pod at 8am.
First run on r888s straight off the trailer and all good but car felt slow, it didnt scare me.
Think is was a 10.7, which wasnt bad on the r888s but car was noticably less powerful.
Checked logs and rich and so made some adjustments but my mind wasnt happy as it shouldnt be rich.
Another run on r888s and it was better but still down on power.
Then notice in the logs the battery voltage is 11.7volts - doh.
Tried few checks and wiring all good, thanks to stew and ian for help. Conclusion was alternator dead, which was always a question mark over whether it would be okay and it had been fine until now. Logs from elvington show 13.9v.
To an extent I was pleased to find that and pleased I was correct it was less powerful.
As everything else on the car was 100% and I was there and had paid for the day thought whatsit to it and put drag wheels and tyres on and used jump pack to start it as battery got lower still and ran with electric powersteering off and enjoyed running it anyway, more quarter miles under my belt, all good fun.
Quickest was 10.14 if I recall correct.
So no 9s for 2012, that can wait until 2013.
More Pics and videos to follow

it was down on power due to alternator issue at pod on Friday hence 126mph..
by the end of the day when I relieved the voltage issue it was getting there and have a 137 I think here but still down on power a little
