but do they jeopordise their main career by doing th promo work...not likely.

no mate i dont actually lol. i couldnt wait to see the back of school, almost as much as they couldnt wait to see the back of me, hence going from mathematical genius at age 12, passing a levels sitting in for lectures at royal institution, attending leeds uni, a lad from yorks ffs ;) etc to...

well i think your taking things to the extreme a little there lol. and i think your completely missing my point. ok, so i may have been a bit harsh on my initial comment, but i have no pity for the guy, he alone was the one who got into the car, he alone was the one to jeopordise...

did i ask him to do me any favours.........er NO. did i say the fire was justified, and him being burnt justified....errrrrrr NO if he hadnt have been there, and was concentrating on his racing career, he wouldnt have been there, it wouldnt have happened to him, and he may now be the...

im not saying he deserved to get burnt mate. just that if he wasnt as greedy about money he wouldnt have been there in the 1st place. i would have thought a race driver would be fully commited to his racing career tbh. if he needs 2 jobs, then fair enough. but ppl like this dont do...

greed is a wonderful thing lol. not happy with his immense bttc wage. haha. the injury hampering his racing serves him right imo. the car is a road car, lots of them are as open as this is, caterhams etc. do you see evryone driving them about with fireproofs etc.? no. and there was...

C£$$ LEE in halfrauds car park this pm. anyone off here.

pah.......age is experience mate ;) just need to figure out a way to fund it now lol. gimme wot uv got in urs, and il spend it to build a monster thatl kick ur ass lol.

lol. more expense huh lol the vee that used to go york?? dont remember that tbh mate. looks like il have to build meself another engine then....show u mk2 boys what a fast clio looks like ;)

that is cool mate. would look better not lowered at the back tho ;) and when can i order 1?

the prima replicas as above are available from .yep u guessed ...prima the original items are still available through reno, but at £800 + a set, they not cheap. they do come up used from time to time, expect to pay from £150 a set tho, prob in need of a refurb.

dont the diesel oils have more cleaning agents in em??

no mate. no joke. usable power is where its at, and in the conditions, and the state of the road, neither mine nor jons had any kind of usable power. wheelspinning evry time it came on cam, evry time i put my foot down, add to this we were on roads we didnt know, and the lights on the williams...

thats the thing tho. in a straight line, the 197 gets reeled in very easily, and jon was suffering even more than me, i was falling behind a bit, but jon was quite a way behind me.yes behind me, and falling further back. as you said, with time you should get a better time, i just dont...

as above really. got it down to 2 hours with 2 of us on the roadside. can do it in 4, 4 1/2 alone, and as above the hardest part is getting it in and lined up when your working on your own. and a 4 poster is a big no no for this job, better off with axle stands n a trolley jack

see how the 172s are after a 100k then before comments are made on that score. as already said tho, the willy engines iv had, various mileages and various states of previous service history have all given me roughly the same outcome, except 1, which was in a heavier willy 2. the...

but yours has been mapped a few times since youv had it. on road mapped.

like iv already stated elsewhere in this thread. put the power/weight ratio in favour of the 172s and they still dont produce the goods.

wash your fukkin mouth out...the engines in the mk1 are bulletproof. 6 years+ and i still havent broke one.......and iv tried pretty fukkin hard lol. tbf tho, the williams lump i had in was just as quick. hence all the arguments iv had stating that my car ISNT a freak, but is just capable...

errrr do we have to go in the rover???? i need to go collect some stuff from darn saaarf anyway....so let me know wen u plannin on takin it aye.

and might i just add...even now, the car isnt mapped properly, hasnt seen a rollers or laptop since it was built. so im obviously down on power there also. so for a car that isnt even set up/mapped.......i dont think it does too badly ;)

the 'odd' mk2 gets near. try quite a lot. like i say these times were from 3+ years ago, when only a handful of mk1s could break into the low 14s barrier. and the majority of 172s werent far off those times. but they were still behind ;) and as you like to mention, stripped headworked...

dont know tbh mate. like i said earlier, not been down a strip for time. over a year now i think. now more are gettin nearer the times i set a couple years ago i think il have to up my game n see if martins times are doable. this car shud do it i reckon 13.8 iirc martin has on stock...

id also check out why the int light isnt working. a leaky aerial?? the circuit board on the interior light can get wet and erode. could be the aerial or sunroof.

the car with the bodies on stands me at less than a grand...thats including the bodies/cams etc and the car. so a williams 1, in average condition..id say its a bargain tbh. so no i wouldnt say iv spent money on it if you know what i mean. and yes, both my cars are williams', the 14.0...

and thats it then?? cos jon says so. lmfao. 172s have been running very close times to the mk1s for years. again tim 'o's cup, 14.0 albeit modded, chris n nics cup 14.4 iirc, paddys old flame red 14.7 standard, rhys' ph1 172 14.6 filter mods, the list goes on. these are all times...

if on warm idle the oil press gauge reads 0...but the pressure rises with revs,.....not a problem. make sure it goes past 3 bar tho, ideally give it a bit of death up to the limiter and make sure the pressure riss all the way up to 6. temp gauge, again, differs from oil to oil, mine...

i do have them mate, for 1 of my williams'. i fitted them a while ago, but they were never mapped and i couldnt afford to get it done properly at the time, so took them back off to travel to Spa, 10mpg and amount of fuel used didnt appeal to me tbh. lol the 14.0 car with cams n remap...

^^^ sideways

i might have a bracket kickin around somewhere.
