Small scare over heating but now back to normal.

Andy W 29 July 2001 10:49 AM

Webbie steps away from the bbs for a mo and it all goes to crap!

Puff The Magic Wagon! 29 July 2001 10:53 AM

Robertio 29 July 2001 10:58 AM

Does the MY01 look any better going sideways than it does when stationary? http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

chrisp 29 July 2001 11:00 AM

Did no one put a bit of tape over the clock so he couldn't see it? http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/rolleyes.gif

How is the fuel situation looking?

babber 29 July 2001 11:00 AM

Well done everyone, is he still going ?

Cheers Phill C

Andy W 29 July 2001 11:01 AM

Andy

Andy W 29 July 2001 11:03 AM

Andy

babber 29 July 2001 11:03 AM

Any chance we can have a picture of the burnt tyres ?

I would imagine they're almost bold by now http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

Kepp it up!!

Cheers Phill C

Puff The Magic Wagon! 29 July 2001 11:04 AM

No mars bars on board - only a bottle of squash. They're hoping Si might loose a few pounds - not gain them http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/wink.gif

Fuel - Won't ask just in case Si starts worrying about it - will report if hear anything.

No, no, no, don't go saying things like that, people wont believe you http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

Maybe that's how subarus design team intended them to be used http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif

Steve Perriam 29 July 2001 11:09 AM

good luck simon, keep it going m8

Puff The Magic Wagon! 29 July 2001 11:10 AM

2/3rds of a tank left http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/eek.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/biggrin.gif

Tyres & in fact the whole car have periods of being off then on. So sometimes its OK & sometimes a bit of a handful.

Rear diff seems to be running quite hot sometimes & may be a problem in the future.

75 minutes http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/eek.gif http://bbs.scoobynet.co.uk/smile.gif

Andy W 29 July 2001 11:12 AM

Didn't say they wouldn't need the help of prodrive/pete croney/mike tuckwood (delete as required)
