won't all that wire cost you 0.0003 of a bhp though?

ok, cool. the front is still normal glass is it?

is that the sides or the windscreen?

really? as bad as your pannels? :D maybe i'll forget that idea too and go for the 4mm. once mine comes back i won't be doing anything bar tidying far a year anyway..

i'm pretty sure i've heard of people welding baffles in, but never heard of a manufacturer selling one. try phoning some of the engine builders on here, they should know more than me.

i know:dapprove: but the waits at the one i went to will be similar to hill climbing, hence i'll scrap that idea!

that's what i thought Tony, especially after the kemble day where we were waiting bloody ages between runs! i was originally looking at the polycarbonate windows, but saw people with them thinking they were no lighter. if i'm only going to be tracking the car i can go for the 3's and save even...

group buy on slicks? after i've paid you...

no worries, but to be honest, he'd happily tell you anything you needed to know for free. you would probably end up trying to get away!

http://www.trackdevelopments.co.uk/ they designed and manufactured an arb for my friends vee, i'm sure if you give Dave a ring he'll be happy to help.

i'm not sure yet to be honest, i've actually been thinking about having a go at hillclimbing. but i thnk the waiting about would be too frustrating.

ah, cool. something to think about then..

that's it! i'd say there is almost nothing more to take out. 10-20kg dry?

just had a look, burpspeed is 875kg at the moment. i'm hoping for about 230bhp/ton when mine is done. :cool:

yeah, i think bodies and stripping would be the cheapest way.

i doubt it! burpspeed is 800 odd, and there is nothing left to take out there!

i reckon a standard clio would have to weigh close to 800kg to be 200bhp/ton!

what i was meaning is that the porsche will have a much stronger midrange, don't they make something like 220ft/lb? i'm agreeing with the people who are saying that the main factor is the driver.

fair enough, I was assuming that the porsche would be starting to pull quite a bit harder into the bigger numbers. 165mph car iirc?

how about the 30-70 times?

cheers mate. and, yes. i'm averaging 90 hours a week at the moment, of which i'm paid for about 60!

haha, now that's the kind of customer we need . ;)

there is slightly more on the actual plate when we serve it, there are three of the goat cheese bon-bon's and three of the red onions, but the plate was looking too crowded in the pictures. saying that though, i think it is a very rich dish, between the lentils, goats cheese, bacon and pigeon...

too true! when i started there (march last year) one of the first things i did was properly cost all the dishes on the menu. they had never done a proper cost breakdown and had no idea how much the food was costing!! there was a seabass dish that cost £36 to produce, being sold on a five...

london is actually one of the best places for lunch menu deals. there is so much competition it is untrue. i've spent the last year as Tom Aikens sous chef, and we were selling the lunch menu at a loss!!

cool, thanks! i can't take all the credit for the food, i am the sous chef, but the head chef is a good friend of mine for a long time now, so probably 50-50 is fair. from what i can tell the place has never been fully busy, but there is a two year expansion going on at the moment. there...

from what i can tell it's always been fairly quiet, but i've been here just over two months. why do you ask?

aye, it's posh enough! it belongs to the same people as blackburn rovers, so they have a bit of cash! http://www.stanleyhouse.co.uk/ this is the current site with the previous chef's menu's etc. it should be changing over the next couple of months.

thanks Gally! we spent a morning trying to get it right and get set up for dinner! time is tight at the moment, so it's good to know it wasn't wasted. vinny, the lunch menu is £19.95 for two courses with coffee and petit fours, we are just about breaking even on it to be honest!
