TODAY at FCS



  172, Tiguan


Yoz blew it up, first thoughts were the headgasket.

It was going really well, untill we were flying down the main straight, all of a sudden big rattle, lots of noise, then the engine cuts out. Lots of steam from the exhaust - engine dead.

great day had and just got home after my meal with ssc. The day was good and unfortunatly gave me lots of ideas.

I am so tired though which is a combination of doing a fell race yesterday and then getting up at 4:30 this morning to meet dave.

Meet some new faces and Im in love with Yozs car.



TOP DAY GUYS AND GIRLS AND IF IT WANST FOR US LOT IT WOULDNT HAPPEN.

Got back a while ago - great day, and great to be able to meet some folks in person.
Thanks also to everyone involved in organising the day for us - the stand looked really good - and had a great selection of motors on it!
Hope Yoz manages to get the cup running soon - it was sounding fantastic on the track!
The only problem now is - having seen (and heard) some of the cars there today, I really need an exhaust and IK!!!

So you get a new gearbox and then destroy a chicane (am I reading that right) LOL?
Yeah,I got carried away...span out & ruined the chicane,then Day finished it off.:)

Managed not to break ort though,so thats a success in my book!
 


Thank you everyone for making it a great day (thats from me personally and from an admin point of view) :cool:

I lost my track virginity lol and I liiiiiike it :devilish: hehe

Fortunately, so does my car it seems - despite 45 solid minutes of over 5k rpm, bouncing off the rev limiter time and time again, going way over the rev limiter to 7.5k while changing down to 2nd :eek: and generally abusing my tyres with silly entry speeds and massive drifts on the corner with the airplane in the middle, it seems to have turned into some sort of beast! Felt soooo strong on the way home and surprised me a couple of times! :confused:

Now Im just concerned that its loosening up to the point of breaking... lol

Had a superb day all in all and the turnout was excellent. Hope to see you all at Donny South and Trax! :cool:

Was such a good day, meet lots of new people. Well worth the 700mile round trip me and John made to come. :D

Was ace.

Dave
 


nothing.

was a standard engine that blew up yesterday.

Only power modifications were an rsport ecu, exhaust and viper.

I had been expecting it, as it has been using oil for about the last month, not much, but enough to notice, especially if i had been thrashing it. Anyhow, it just brought the plans forward a few weeks so, hey ho.

:)

or if you meant what did I do to it yesterday - dont know, maybe the same thing that Matt did to his nitroused 172 - spun a lobe on the cams? We dont know yet, we took the engine apart on the side of the A14 while we were waiting for the AA, and the third port was full of coolant, so I think its the head, matt thinks its the cambelt so, well see :)

Was was in those red saxo(s) on the track? and what the hell was in that orange 306?! I gotta say that 306 was seriously quick.. Also gotta say I have to learn how to drive but I was having so much fun, trying to (and gradually) catching up with another 172 or two, but then this monaco blue 172 that I was gaining on eventually decided to cut thru the chicane and I went around it, thus losing precious seconds! Then they went into the pits!

Ive got loads of vids, watch this forum I will post links soon...

(PS if anyone can recommend some webspace for me thatd be nice)
 


I think the AA were pretty busy in the area, we passed a couple of busy patrol vans on the way to the M1 !!

Ohhhh!! That makes me throw the idea of selling the 172 and getting a normal VTS out of a large window now. Thank god!
