Default Time Attack The scooyclinic story so far

Just a thread to follow Kevin Horsley and mikee singh in the scoobyclinic sponsored Time attack car.

Our customer has his own thread to tell you the more in depth and the trials and tribulations or the car's history


https://www.scoobynet.com/projects-4...e-finally.html

We are here to brag basicly as this is our fast road package avalible to you for less than 10k and we have took the first 3 rounds by storm.

I'll shut up and show you some very nice shots of the car kev and mikee in action


ENJOY...........


The first round at DONNINGTON saw Kev borrow our loan car as his was not ready in time





And Yes that is snow

]










Kev spent all day down in the lower times having only 450bhp against cars running up to 700+bhp...

But then the rain came and he used this to his advantage, Taking first



YouTube - SCOOBYCLINIC IMPREZA (KEVIN HORSLEY)

Next was KNOCKHILL with the car finished and producing 512bhp and 530flbs all looked well two days before until Kev desides to nip out to have a last run to see if the car is ok.....

In true style he leaves the road and comes down heavy shock loading the box and stripping fith.... he limps back to Scoobyclinic and The lads crack on through the night, in goes a new box and away kev goes the next day ..

back to picks

The car gets there and track time is short as cars are spinning out left right and center

but from the little time he has he says the car is going well (until)


This!!


He over cooks it and ends up in the grass AGAIN


The car comes into the pits a little bent to say the least

and she's in the final looking very aerodynamic



Kev pulls it out of the bag and pips Barry Rycroft of DCY to take first


No less than a week later were off again the cars had another gearbox and full service and ready for SCOOBYSHOOTOUT

The event it's self was a hard one with an ever changing track due to the wind move the cones. But Kev persist and manages to squeeze into second behind olly clark of RCM not bad on a track that he'd only been round once in the final ... well done mate




Next was over to mikee singh for the drag final agaist the Mighty Gobstopper

Mikee gives it his all and WINS!!! a cheer goes up and were the winner of the SSO



YouTube - sso 08

The car comes back we put a bag over for a week..

And were at silverstone a week later feeling jaded and tired but loving it

Kev arrives at 8am with the rest of us we set up our garage and were just missing one thing THE CAR!!!! Mikee has over laid but is double timming it down his direct private road all the way there

The first session goes out just as Mikee turns up the cars still on pirelli's from last weekend and Time attack rules say it's gotta be TOYO'S, we jack it up and buzz the wheels off and on check the levels while kev gets strapped in and he's off F1 stylee..

we don't expect a great result being that silverstone is a power track but to our suprise straight off the bat Kev sets the fastest time and keeps up there all day





Kev does his final lap and comes in he say's thats it lads there's no more time to come he set's 1min and 1 sec time and we wait for what seemed like an age but nobody beats us

so three down three to go

Kev in shock of how well he's going




The Lads after a hard 4 weeks




kev living it up





Im sure the crowd loved this



Hope you enjoyed this thread

Cheers JB
