dangerous brain Posted February 19, 2007 Share Posted February 19, 2007 I now have 3 more nights of vehicle fettling. My mrs is back in England now so I can finally concentrate on sorting my car out (I changed my own oil for the first time in 18 months today as opposed to paying someone to do it,, boy did it feel good getting oily again). Am examining the go slower bits tomorrow as I personally feel that stopping is way more important than hitting warp factor. Hitting hedges, walls, and armco's instead often offend.

Chris Wilson Posted February 19, 2007 Author Share Posted February 19, 2007 Prob weighs about 1/4 though 1/3rd of the weight to be precise. assuming you have 500 bhp you have an approximate 337 BHP per ton. I will have, with my paltry 180 BHP, 352 BHP per ton. (I am bored and the calculator was handy...). I have to rev to 10,000 RPM to get the full whack, you have it around 4500 RPM.

Pete Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 I've made it as far as provisional. If I find my c/card when I get home I may even make it a booking! Do drivers get free passenger rights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Posted February 20, 2007 Share Posted February 20, 2007 If you go Pete, Jo has just asked me if she can jump in as passenger for a couple of laps? Would be happy to take anyone. I think there's a fee made to the organisers though. You guys definitely coming then? Now I've sorted it, I can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be some interesting laps then Don't let him lure you into a false sense of security Wez. Hoiking 500kg or so around any corner is going to be a smite easier than 1500kg. However, most organisers don't allow you to overtake through the corners, so get ahead of him on the straight and block in the braking zones. Have fun chaps.
