UK or the world?

UK - not quite sure these days

World? I would hazard a guess either the Rigoli cars from Australia or the Easy Street cars from America

There's quite a few powerful cars going - hence why I bowed out this year

There's quite a few scoobs there that are "invites" or belong to other clubs etc so there'll likely be more scoobs than anything else

Theres a Skyline there @ over 800bhp (OK - so could be b/s figure )

Best of luck

You have obviously not seen the project X skyline then?

Have a look in the search engines and look in general technical/drivetrain.

Lets just say someone has definitely 567bhp

And it should have gone more (and will do)

Banzai doing a photo shoot on the most powerful scoob - bo**ocks! lol. They dont know much. They just think its the most powerful

Boro,

I think david is trying to get me to talk, but this is all out in the open on this thread.

My engine made 567 bhp and 561 lbft, but then a crack in the liner prevented things from carrying on. The block will be replaced with a much stronger unit very soon, so I wasn't keen on coming on and saying I do, since technically its not current news.
