Picked up my copy of Fast Car mag the other day for the Scooby / Jap Car Rolling Road Shootout! This day was held back in Nov thanks to Scatman Shaun the article doesn't say too much but who cares as nearly every pic in there has me in it

I was weighing the cars down on the rollers to stop any slipping from the rear (No Jokes!) Its a good way to put faces to the names if you haven't met any of the Scoobynet lot, but be careful of Danny Fisher! (Wanted in South London)

Shame the article didn't reflect enough on JohnF's Cossie Westy or Bennys GTR, plenty of pics of Shaun in there with his 325BHP Cossie which is still slower than a 253BHP 22B

Harj.....

Somewhere between them is a <B>532</B>bhp car trying to get out

Mmmmm... Probably be a cossie though

Danny Fisher

Harj, you wasn't weighing the cars down, you was SLOWING the cars down!

All that weight must have an adverse effect.

Dan

P.S. I handed myself in, and the Police let me go!

RonaldoH

They let you go? Must of been group4 security who arranged the transportation then

rsquire

So....

has anyone calculated Harj's coefficient of drag or, I dread to say, his centre of roll ???

harj

Don't forget Shauns monster mobile has nearly 370 lbts toque Have to admit Cossies are awesome on the move! but the 22B is better Quote from me in Fast Car "Squire Racing gave me the keys and said do what you want with it!"

Danny I put some extra weight in your car cus you needed the power! dropped a big SCAT in the boot!

Harj.........

PS. The White Car Commeth

got home just as the missus was going to the shop - "get us feb's issue of fast car will ya'"

uhmmm, £3.50 for a few piccies of prodrive and, yes indeedy, lots of pictures of harj's fugly mug!

who's names match who's scoobynet aliases then?

JohnF, what happened to the 'usually 330bhp, actually 246' scoob killing westie?

johnfelstead

what happened was they couldnt get the fans near my intercooler, so as soon as the revs started to rise the charge temp went through the roof and the ignition was backed off big time.

Take a look at my dyno plot, its mental, i have 300Ft/lb of torque at 3300rpm and then it all just turns to poo.

Leigh

Seeing as they had the rolling road day featured, I went and bought fast car for the first time in years... and I felt a bit like a perv buying a porno mag!!
If you look at the feature you'll note that the scoobs are in descending order of BHP (except Stef's, for some reason?)... and I was pretty pleased to spot my humble '95 WRX just below an STi V and just above a 22b! Nice one! Yes, yes I know it's the torque that matters on the road, but it's the BHP that counts in the pub!!
They even used a pic of my car in the mag's index 'cos it's so super-shiny!!
Oh BTW, ever since that rolling road day, my boot lid just won't shut right for some reason...

Cheers

Careful Leigh cus I know your car and what you keep in the boot Alot of car crime in Leicester these days hey especially Scooby theft

longun

Because I ran the little pug he didn't need to sit in the boot so my cars fine

What is going on here - first this week I have to buy Revs and now Fast Car - I had to buy a Daily Star to hide them in to retain some street cred (OH! i'm one of the chief Muppets on this BBS - I don't HAVE any street cred )

What a dodgy looking bunch of reprobates

Chuckster, if your real name didn't get revealed to enough people on this BBS a few weeks ago, it has now!!

RVeiga

Leigh

Not that it matters but that dodgy looking bloke with the P1 would have been first if they were in power order. Perhaps that was the intention, but the editor was too busy jerking his gherkin.

Boot won't shut, I've got buckled 18" on the rear now

Chuck the FKUC is Charles Mallion so there!
