Yeah haha they were mad old days. Oddly the outputs there were seeing could be had for £20k out of most engines these days. 160bhp/litre from N/A isn't so impossible anymore.

If you long rod it with some solid lifters there's no reason it won't do 9k. You'd be about £10000000000 into it though.

Sorry should have said! iRacing and asetto corsa.

What spec GPU would I need to run 3 1080p monitors at 60fps?

Does the VR make you wanna chunder?

As above. I’m after some inspiration!

Fucken none R8 having pussay

Interesting point on the harmonics. My Duratec suffered at close to 9krpm. It could back the bolts out of the thermostat housing. My little Rover K @ 8500rpm was solid as a rock. Do you think a new Ali block would be better, I don’t thing they ever torque the same after their first go...

Whats the block and head weigh? Were you never interested in using a later Ali one with inserts?

WANT

As good as this all is, would you like to sell me your XSI. I really miss the one I had 12 years ago!

Best be the white R8

Really to get near the mad days of BTCC you need to have a K20 or Duratec 2.0 in it. Sadly the F4R just doesn't have the ability to happily run the 250bhp+ you'd need.

Just seen Guy Martin towing this on a flat bed. Thought it would be up your street.

Cheers Phil.

Where's the best place to buy one of these now?

Me and Andy Forrest were chatting about this. If you take a standard amount of energy from a motor, per psi per application the boost profiles look like this over a rev range: Rotrex/Centrifugal 0 0 0 2 2 4 4 5 5 6 6 7 7 Eaton/Roots (correctly sized) 4 5 6 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 7 Turbo...

Turbo Rotrex's have all the lag of one and none of the go. Rotrex's also don't whine FFS!

I failed twice just due to bad habits. Third time I was like a nun.

Sad noises

No I called the dealers. Used motorway in the past and the offers are generally less than WBAC!

Yeah. Offered it to 6 places. Highest bid gets it.

Delivered yesterday at 1pm, paid by 3pm. Finance cleared by 5pm. Selling to a garage does have its benefits. ZERO phone calls with queefs.

The first £5k of it was!

Bar the brake issue (which cost me a grand!) at the start it’s been faultless.

Sadly is on a 36 month old car!

Retail is only £37k and for that it’d need a service, brakes and a warranty!! Remember it’s on 67k miles.

Sold it to a garage for nearly sod all, but no f**king about so all’s good. We buy any car offer was £29k lol.

Getting sold tomorrow. Total cost of ownership per mile is: 81p inc fuel. Not too bad really. @MarkCup ’s Focus RS was more! (90p ish iirc) Also his 140i came out at 62p/mile. Good bye Rangie. Bought as a 30th present to myself. I think I’ll miss it. I’ll have another once I earn enough...

There’s a joke in there
