Burpspeed Version 2: Race Car Build

[Tony Hunter]

I know fk all about engines.

That's the pronlem

 

[JP83]

£10 and a copy of razzle.

 

[Tony Hunter]

It might come to that.

 

[sonny172cup]

Stick a standard engine in it with cams and throttle bodies, then come and race with us in the Clio/saxo class

I do. That's an offer Mr Hunter.

Why don't you do this??

Doesn't need fancy pants high comp engine build.

Be great to see it back out there. Standard engine with bodies and it'll be out there in no time.

 

[Mr R.]

Why isn't the new engine built?

The Danny stuff was last year.

 

[Tony Hunter]

Thanks for some of the kind offers guys.

I have loads of different options, just got to see what crops up.
The high comp thing was a gradual progression, and was persuaded by a certain engine builder that it was the way too go.
Remember our old engine was out of a crashed cup on 97k.
No way can I see big Burp making Rockingham in 10 days time.
I'm just fed up with all the bulls hit tbh.

A good question, I'd like to know the answer too.

 

[C l a r k e y]

I know fk all about engines.

I didn't either Tony. When I bought my car 7 years ago, I paid someone to change the oil !!!!!!
We built an engine a few year ago and always taking them apart to learn. Time is the biggest problem as you know.
After listening to motorsport people telling me this and that and part with lots of hard earned cash for it to be crp.
I do it all myself.......
my motto is " I don't have to pay some to muck it up, I am more than capable of mucking it up myself "

 

[Tony Hunter]

Atm, I just about have time to check water oil and tyres.
Work has taken me over lol.

 

[C l a r k e y]

I want an invite this year to check your work

 

[Nafoff]

Chin up tony, just do what you can do,
don't scrap anything if you don't have to, theres always options

 

[Tony Hunter]

I want an invite this year to check your work :smile:

Come up a day earlier for silverstone race Dave.

 

[Tony Hunter]

Chin up tony, just do what you can do,

Option 1. Bin it.

 

[Matt@codered]

Poke it in the corner, cover it up and forget about it for a while.




That's what I've done with mine. Hehe!

 

[Tony Hunter]

I've just entered the whole seasons race calender, got a motor home and trailer sat here.
I'm not letting that lot go to waste.

 

[Russ_16v]

Try not to get rid if you can Tony - it's definitely been a s**t road you have been down, but as said, if needs be chuck an engine in and get using it.

I suppose it depends what is more fun - the 106 or the clio (read fun as reliable, not a pain in the ass)

 

[Matt@codered]

Wise words Russ. Fun!

 

[Matt@codered]

Ah

I've just entered the whole seasons race calender, got a motor home and trailer sat here.
I'm not letting that lot go to waste.

Use the pug then I guess?

 

[Tony Hunter]

Pug is slow though guys.

I'm not that old yet.

If I could afford it, I'd be GT3 racing.

 

[Matt@codered]

I see your point Tony, but guessing with the pug you have more time racing than sitting in the paddock fixing the clio.

 

[Matt@codered]

......plus, if I could afford it I'd be LMP racing!

 

[Dan@SJM]

Russ has a cam'd ph1 lump...

 

[SharkyUK]

Very sorry to hear things are dragging mate It's not a nice place to be.

 

[Tony Hunter]

Baby Burp having some fun at Rockingham=2 class wins.:tongueout:

Tricolore Trophy is coming atcha!!

 

[SharkyUK]

Haha, nice one Tony! :up:

 

[Cub.]

Looking good. You racing brands Tony?

 

[Tony Hunter]

Yes Olive.
I gave you the date.

 

[Mr R.]

Yes Olive.
I gave you the date.

End of the month?

 

[Cub.]

Yes Olive.
I gave you the date.

Oh yes. Silly me. I'm in Wales I'm afraid I remember now.

It's Mallory I'm trundling along to.

 

[TimR26]

Pug looks good Tony.

Is the Clio still at BTM? Has it been touched yet?

 

[Tony Hunter]

Tim.
Yes and no

 

[sonny172cup]

Tim.
Yes and no

 

[TimR26]

Tim.
Yes and no

That's a shame Tony, hope it's resolved soon.

 

[Tony Hunter]

Just put a load of parts on baby burp pug, all ready for Brands. If needed.

 

[NorthloopCup]

There's a nasty rumour going round that the burpspeed bus is back in business!!!!

 

[Tony Hunter]

Going up to RStuning for Tuesday.

 

[JP83]
