Is there anyway I can get a few tickets from anyone or is it too late? Myself and two other cars were going to do something this week but can't no longer. Instead we will head for Trax if we can get the cars in. If anyone could help or point us in the right direction of somebody who could it...
Have never been a fan of M3'S after the the E30 but christ that CSL looks soooOOOo right in those pics. Refreshing seeing a beemer that does't rely on its badge for status.
Think these Vtec Mini's really do define what quick is. There are a few kicking about in Northampton, most built by a friend of mine. He has a stealthy black one and last time I see him on the road, he was pushing a TVR Chimera out of the fast lane........I would have payed to see the TVR owners...
Probably has straight cut gears in the diff too to be that loud. Really can't beat the sound of a sccr box. My mini had S/C drop gear too and was about as hardcore as i'd ever want anything on the road......though I'm still swaying to the idea of a SADEV in my vee. lol
As ever, a quality vid Turkish. My best mate is planning on building a saltflat inspired car from his already stupidly quick 'rod below. Would love to be in something at 220+mph!
It hasn't been tested in anger yet but its been designed to work around the Trophy exhaust its fitted with. I had the chance to drive the car around Bruntingthorpe last year before the Trophy front splitter, Trophy rear wing and rear diffuser was fitted. Was a joy to drive then so im sure its...
Was a very good morning. I left Northampton at half 5 this morning to get there nice and early. Some of the 911's there were lovely with some very rare examples. My fovorites were the UR Quottro's and the Type R powered Mini.
Don't blame you fella. The road leading towards Sixfeilds over the canal and river is stupidy slippy. The back end of the vee squirms side to side up there even at part throttle. Needs bloody relaying much like 99.9% of all Northampton roads. lol
Hahaha I was wondering if you were a CS member! Nice car you have too fella. Like the black wheels and yellow body. LY looks great even in this s**ty weather! Was a bit greasy on the roads this evening so had to take it a bit steady. ;)
The colour is a standard Renault paint code called Nocturne. Im only aware of 1 other V6's in it which is the ph1 V6 used at the first motor show unveiling.
The lights on the silver car are stock ph1 lights.
Ive only been pulled once with it in the last year.......and that was because they nabbed me for over twice the legal speed limit lol Cant see the problem with it considering its just 1 dot and nothing else. Have seen much MUCH worse ones out there. Could be worse, could have been T###PHY or the...
After a few quick phone calls, a few of us got together for a bit of a late night blast through London. Here are a few pics.
Lateboy turns up.....late.....
Nearly home time........
That'll be Bill Patchall. We met in London last night for some photo's. Will post a few in a bit. His car is pretty damn seriouse. It has a full V6 Trophy exhaust system, carbon rear engine covers, and Evo brakes etc etc.
Answer
A) Thats a 4 rotor rotary engine based on Mazda parts. OEM engines were fitted with either 2 or 3 rotors as well as turbo charger. I'm pretty sure that particular car is campaigned in the U.S Time Attack Seires.
B) This is a tuned naturally aspirated one which means its making stupid...
Thats a brilliant video. Was thinking exactly the same as you gally. I mean, just cast your minds back to FCS! lmao
Anybody know what the song being played is?
I had an S70 before my vee and I still maintain it sounded better than the big engined clio. Its about time somebody does this with a Focus RS and with the addition of a Volvo S60/V70R gearbox and rear running gear. That would be pretty damn cool and show that fwd will never beat 4wd lol. Nobody...

You have to be bonkers to prefer the weedy sound of a 'rarri v8 over one of these in my opinion.
Sorry, im not 100% on how to embed it onto the post.
