Good question On the event above (pics) I was running Trophy suspension :)

Well, done a few things to the car since I last posted on here. Some of them being new forrest suspension made by Black art Desighn, then the new built engine went in and down to TDF to get remaped, where we found our latest engine biuld is the most powerfull Throttle bodied f4r Clio he has had...

How did you do?

Did the Weardale rally few weeks ago 7 o/a and 4 in class. Car is doing an auto solo on sunday :D You started from my garage, did you have some cake?

Hope he has a good event, think he has some steep comp in his class by reading other forums.

I had that problem about 8 yr's ago lol god how time flie's:D

whats the problem will it not start?

Yes. Thanks

on the inlet side after it splits into to at it's smallest piont before the valve.

Hi just wondering what size is the port on a standard 172 at it's smallest after the split? had a engine developed from a standard a 140 head and I'm starting to think it may be to small, mine is 24.3mm at the narrowist part.

Can't see any result's anyone know how Scott has done?

What engine was that with because with them figures it would be worth about 20k

Very good results you must be very happy :approve: looks like you will need to keep it reving which is'nt easy when rallying

Nice pics mate, no good for sponnsers that day car covered in Sh!te lol.

Looks good, your niose in the engine, there are thrust bearings in next to the crank it sounds like either one has gone missing or worn out some how, has the engine been apart? may have not gone back in. they are made so that there is something for the clutch to lean against when pressed etc.

Well we had mixed weekend, The Norbeck castle hotel was the hosting venue, with scrutaneering inside the confrence hall, very nice. Got through that fine and went of to start the Friday night stages. Well we decided that we had to get through the fifst 4 stages with no mistakes so a little to...

Ha ha ha ha a rally car is never done, you will alway's find somthing to do especially when you start competing, good luck lad. I'm out at Blackpool with a couple of other clio rally car's this weekend coming, on the Northwest stage's http://www.nwstages.co.uk/ :D

Yes well we will at the Pendragan, would be great to get loads of clio's on one event. May of had a look down t Swynerton the other one was the Richard burns rally, but same as you see how champs going :D Ps yes mintin was think he had one bad stage that dropped him a min.

Just to let you know, your oil is not getting back to the sump fast enough. We had to open all the oil way's back to the sump and put an extra 1/2ltr of oil in to halt the problem, among aload of other tricks to stop these engine's blowing up in the rigers of rallying.

What championship are you doing , I hope we clash at some piont

Car looks setup well Scott, had a matedown there in a lotus Martin tinker, he said it was a good venue was there another 2 clio's there?

look's the right price to me

what size are they?

Full credit to you Andy you have built a good Engine , but it just shows you need the right man to do the tunning bit, I always thought a run up the road with lambda conected was enough to tune it , but I can now see that is not the case. PS I've driven and it is world apart from where it was a...

Well had a quick spanner check on the car on Saturday morning, apart from resetting the flat shift, which must of lost its memory with being stood for 6 mounths, everything is looking fine for our second event of the year at Croft on Sunday, all I need to do is sort the front bumper and load the...

To be fair Andy at the pace we were going round and at that piont we all knew what was coming.

Well we got to the end and what a journy. Was that worried about the weather that I dropped the car van and trailer down on Newyears day. There was a covering of 2" of snow all over the track except in the middle where they had gone round with a jcb. Through the night it melted slightly and then...

Oooooooh Yes;)

Been down to Croft today and the rally tomorow is going to be mega, 2" of snow but hopefully cool bright weather, should be good with big side ways action.

Yep the car is well and trully all back together hope fully Andy and his Dad mot'ed her yesterday and set up the headlight's, had a run down the road and the KC spot light's where all pioting in the right direction. We have only found one prob on the car and that the near side wheel is 1/2" back...
