TaviaRS

Possibly, if its wet

XT

Possibly one of my mates will accept the challenge in 2-3 months time....
He only has 460bhp now....

Travia/XT,

What cars do you pit?

XT

Toyota Supra Twin Turbo 6-speed, i won't go into details

Mantamac

One of my customer's has a Corvette ZR1 modded by Geoff Jeal. Knock's out just under 500 bhp..........I'll loan it off him and I'll have a pop.

Mac.

TaviaRS

If its straight line, I withdraw my offer If its a circuit and its wet, yeah I'll have a go in me Skoda. Its a 1.4 16v.

XT

yup, TaviaRS is a daydreamer....you should have a go in a track!

XT

His car has a shagged suspension.

TaviaRS

akshay67, you haven't told us what have YOU got.

akshay67

I have a measly UK Impreza Turbo MY99 ~250bhp.

The two cars mentioned above are a mates and he wants to do some jap-slaying.

If anyone is up for the challenge, he is more than willing to meet up...

David_Wallis

can he wait

supra460+++

I'll give him a run for his money, get him to bring his camaro along,in couple of months i'll have a go if he likes,

as far as this one is concerned:
Sylva Fury,
Vauxhall/Cosworth XE 2 litre 16 valve, QED Cams, SBD Dry Sump, 2x Weber
45DCOEs, Highpower Nitrous, BTB Exhaust, 3.89:1 LSD, Caterham R500 magnesium
wheels, Avon ACB10 tyres, BGH Close ratio gearbox, Paddle Clutch, Racelogic
traction & launch control (professional version), 250bhp+ / 620kg = 420bhp /
ton
.............

Its not a proper car, its like getting a Lada stripping it off and stick a 400bhp engine in it, or get a m o p e d and stick a nitrous engine in it,not fair thus i won't get any pleasure racing a banger

Car for car fair battle

XT

Yup, that's my mate with the supra.......

XT

and we don't need a video camera, we have already two.........everybody knows here who's the man with the cam....

akshay67

More important for the slower car to have the cam...especially if its mounted on the dash

XT

i have two cameras, because the rear wing is so big and it will look empty with just one

TaviaRS

Does he fancy a trip to the Ring?

I'm sure someone with a Jap car (probably a standard STI V Type RA V Limited) would like to meet him, as would I in my 1.4 16V Skoda . Assumes both his cars are road legal.

MarkCSC

1.4 16v Cough, cough

Twin-turbo

I'll bring my modded Supra along. Should give him a good run.

HenryT

TaviaRS,

Was your's the black one at Llandow on saturday ?.

1.4 16v.)

Veracocha

Well ladies and gents it looks like we have a battle forming here. I'll bring my 1750bhp Escudo Pikes Peak along just for good measure.

XT

Veracocha this is not a Gran Turismo 3 tournament......

supra460+++

hahahaha@XT

twin turbo what have u got?

I'll be giving you details soon(b4 June)

supra460+++

Santa pod is the nearest place to London to race i think?

So tell him at Santa pod....I'll email you date as i said b4 June

akshay67

Supra460, can u give details of where you will be (offical trackday-type event and not a 'private' road!)?

I'll pass details to him and he'll attend (has an on board vid camera too, so maybe he can post some cool vids)
