Hey Chris,

I was in the white one. Haven't seen you around here before. Love the car.

 

I went on to see 3 more Soops on my way home! I was quite shocked. A purpley-blue on Landsdowne roundabout, a sliver one heading in to town and another silver one, aerotop, on the outskirts of Boscombe (I think thats the area).

 

Haven't one for ages, then 4 in a 30 minute trip!

Ah yes a bit far from home!

Its an HKS Super Dragger. I have an auto so it only really makes noise when you are giving it some. Does seem to sound nice though, quiet(ish!) when you want it, loud when you want some fun.

I need to get someone else to drive it so I can hear what it sounds like from outside! I thought yours sounded good so I was trying to accelerate as much as poss in the traffic so you could hear :D

:cool: Cheers mate well im in the same boat as you then cos i have a super dragger also but never get to hear it properly like you because im obviously allways in the car. Thats allright then so we now both now know what they sound like when being driven by somebody else, i take it both your cats are removed as well.:D

Haha yup a good way to know they sound good, but no, I still have both cats! I have been thinking to myself its been sounding a bit louder/beefier recently. I put it down to having the windows open due to the nice weather. Maybe I should check it for holes!

wow yours does sound good then if you still have both cats just shows you how good the soops soundproofing must be, you must also have one of the few soops left with both cats in you not thinking of upping the boost or going bpu.

I've thought about it but once you start it's hard to stop and I can't afford a single at the moment!

I'm happy with it how it is really. Also like the idea that it should hopefully be less likely for anything to go wrong - touch wood! It's my daily driver so I need reliability, not saying that BPU isn't but I don't want to risk anything.

One day...! :D

Do what I have...Boost controller and a restrictor ring for 1 bar then you can just dial it up for when you need it. Trust me the feeling is completely different. :D

 

I'll show you next time when I overtake you :p

Haha well I do want to see your car in the flesh so we shall see! I've always like the idea of a boost controller, having the power to adjust at your fingertips but I think I would probably leave it on high all the time :D I must try and make the next meet.

 

Totally off topic, but are you going to Burning Bournemouth tonight? I've never been and was thinking about it but don't know if its the right kind of place for the soop!

Im the opposite I forget to turn the power up.

 

No im not going tonight as my car is in the bodyshop theres pics on here somewhere. ITs ok place to take your sup no one will damage it (well didnt mine and there are quite a few supes there) but I went in november for first time in years and wasnt too impressed not many shows or anything in the arena like before. It might be better now its sunny again.

Oh yes I remember seeing your pics now, I have a memory like a sieve sometimes. It's going to look fantastic!

 

I was hoping it would be good cos of the nice weather but no idea what to expect. I'll see how it goes and if any mates want to come. I'm not too bothered as I'm a little hungover today!
