Mark, as we 'IN THE KNOW' know, its down to WHO is doing the timing. If its a magazine then any timing is suspect. Even more so when a muppet is driving. What was it 7-8000 rpm, then side step?

The only mod I'll be putting in is Optimax.

May give me a few bhp and take me to the elusive 280bhp mark??

Suspect I'll be second last on the day, just in front of Dans car - someone told me a 1.1 Fiesta would have the power to beat it on a track -so it must be producing 50bhp??

I think Craigs is secretly a 2.5 litre conversion?

It would appear that crazy ideas are coming in..

This is the latest mod to hit the shores from the "Fast and the Furious" garage

Quite how the chassis of the scoob using this will cope is unknown

Isn't that Marks turbo - he told me it had a lag of two laps at Dono

I have been tinkering - thought I had better turn the power down

Had a couple of drop outs - so check you mail and get applying if you want to come.

Mark,

To do a 12.2 1/4, you need more than 208 hp in a Scoob.
