Burpspeed Version 2: Race Car Build

[SharkyUK]

Boom! Result!

 

[Tony Hunter]

Does it have a cup holder now?

More importantly, somewhere to store your walking stick?

got a blue badge.

Good result Tony, what injectors are you running?

Managed with standard injectors, working at 95%, we have a high pressure regulator.

I am now fighting with myself whether or not to take big burp out for Brands.
Seeing it sat on the trailer, it's so tempting, realistically I haven't got the time to sort all the little bits out, plus I would suspect it'll scare the s**t out of me to start with, mmm.

Go on, you have to! obviously after you've clean it.

What do you need to sort on it?

 

[Martin.]

Do it. Would love to see it on the grid! I'll be there as a spectator.

Do it you old tart, you dragged me out when my car wasn't ready at Donny 2 years ago

 

[dinger]

Do it you old tart, you dragged me out when my car wasn't ready at Donny 2 years ago :wink:

and look what happened! lol

 

[sonny172cup]

Exactly.. Oh but that was driver error

 

[Tony Hunter]

What do you need to sort on it?

Everything, it's a mess, inside and out.

 

[Adam G]

I think you should use the baby;-)

 

[Tony Hunter]

I think you should use the baby;-)

Well it is all ready to go, apart from a quick dust down.

 

[Russ Rallye]

Give your self a shake man! Clio or me and you will fall out, I'm not racing so I expect you and the rest of the clios to keep Simon honest at least!
Russ

 

[Tony Hunter]

Lol.
I haven't got any spare time, like 7 days to strip everything and get it to a point that it'll be worth taking out.

 

[Russ Rallye]

Sleep is for the weak, 50+ hours of sleep in a week could be put to good use!
Russ

 

[dinger]

Russ does have a point!
but youve got to remember, Tony is quite old now

 

[Russ Rallye]

youve got to remember, Tony is quite old now

That's like saying the pyramids are 'quite old'!
Russ

 

[Tony Hunter]

Lol, leave me alone.

 

[Johnc172]

Great news Tony!! Glad to see you got it back!

 

[BIGASH]

You decided what your taking Tony? I'll take the day off Monday and come help if you want to get the clio ready?

 

[Tony Hunter]

Thanks for offer James, but we are working dawn till dusk Mon - Tues, doing aeration, dressing etc etc on the greens.
Time is short ad we gave have a massive charity day on Friday, and I won't be there!

Just let him have your new toy for the weekend :smile:

This weekend we have all been out for a little play in Clarkey's backyard, Brands Hatch.

Very eventful day so far, quali my NEW driveshaft broke, a big thankyou to Russ Thomson for going to a local euro car parts for me.

Got that fixed just in time for race 1.
After a nasty smash on the start line, we carried on with a re start.

Half a lap in, the gear lever comes off in my hand around Druids. Now I like a challange, but come on!

On the grass, I now see the plastic cap thingy has popped off, pushed it back on, and we have gears. Off I set half a lap behind.

Only thing I could do was go for fastest lap for class D. This I managed in the 7 laps we completed. Happy days.

Race 2 will be fun, starting from the back.
Look out, here I come.

Race 2 was an all out attack, passed 16 cars in the end, finished 12, plus got into the 59's. Lost a headlight lense and a wing mirror cover, but it was worth it.

All in all, a good day, clean racing by all and everybody went home happy.
Tric Trophy rules.

 

[richjwilliams]

Sounds like a good weekend [emoji481][emoji481]

 

[Russ Rallye]

Happy to help mate, all worth while seeing the 106 come through the field in race 2, mostly on its door handles around Paddock!
Russ

 

[Cub.]

Sounds like race 2 was great. Any footage?

I've sorted the font size for you Mr Crusty. X

 

[Tony Hunter]

Thanks Olive.
I actually managed to copy and paste that on my phone.
Get me!!
It did take me 4 goes and nearly an hour lol

 

[SharkyUK]

Haha, great stuff mate. Race 2 sounds a hoot!

 

[Tony Hunter]

It was Andy, last time I had so much fun, was at Cadwell, after I span on the 1st lap and ended up last.
I think that was a 3rd place overall in the end

 

[Tony Hunter]

Anybody got a drive shaft?

Found one. Thanks Dinger and Russ.

Get in there.

I seem to have been in the wars a little, never mind.:grinning::grinning:

 

[dinger]

That had to of been the cheapest driveshaft going!

Think that may of been someone that misunderstood, "faster cars must go round the outside" lol

Can you get me another two, one for each side. Serious.

 

[Tony Hunter]

They said quicker cars, not quicker drivers :wink:

PM me the reg and your local Euro car parts mate

 

[Tony Hunter]

PM me the reg and your local Euro car parts mate

Done.

 

[mitsiman]

I had a pair of driveshafts in the lorry - came off an old 106 stockhatch that somebody stole off me - why didn't you ask?

 

[Tony Hunter]

You said they were tapered ones, gitty. Anyway, they would have been £300 each :wink:

 

[Mini182]

Good stuff. Didn't stop around to see race 2 but it sounds like fun!

Nice to see people helping out to get you going again after quali as well.

We did have a walk around the paddock at lunch time, but you looked like you had your hands full so didn't stop to chat.

 

[Tony Hunter]

I was a tad busy, makes a change for me, it's usually, tyre pressures, oil, done and drink tea.
