it's only norbury who feels the need to cheat
weight in at something under 800kg

I didn't cheat! My car isn't faster anyway, it's your one which is slower... my car is slightly heavier than everyone elses too.

I need to check if the old Nissan Micra is in the game, i'm so having one if it is!

[lankyarcher]

Right.... For the biddy racing I have 2 options,
106 rallye, 178bhp 842kg - ready to go
Or I have bought a Mazda Autozam... A mighty 63 bhp, MR and just over 600kg....
Are both eligible? If so I'll start tuning the 'zam...
What do you reckon chaps?
The Autozam is very noddy....
Which tyres are everyone running? How powerful, how light...

Both sound fine. I just had a check of the used car showroom and ended up buying loads, so if anyone needs a car for the biddy series then I have a Daihatsu Sirion and some dodgy old grannymobile which will probably do about 30mph

I also picked up a nice little number which I reckon could do well in the biddy series - will tune it up tomorrow and see what it can do.


I reckon we should have some sort of sleeper championship too, I found a 90's Nissan estate with the engine from the Skyline GTR, it now has around 600bhp.

not sure if ill have enough for the noddy stuff but if i can jump in the room ill just mill about until you race the more normal cars. will be fun to watch regardless. Yesterday was a total nightmare trying to get into a room with anyone.

+ i was too busy laughing at the guy in GG getting owned by Jason Plato. Comedy gold, what a ledge that guy is!!

Pulse, that car is a rocket!. I nearly had it 'round London though, 'til you passed on the penultimate corner

Yeah, what happened there? You ended up 4 seconds behind me just after that corner, even though you were in front of me for a short while!!! Your car is RIDICULOUSLY fast and when you're behind it you can see how well it handles! What's the stats???

Thanks!, it has every performance part on, so is now 182 BHP, race tires and will be stage three lightened for tonight . Around the London track it's a joy, turn in then plant the throttle, you might of seen the tire smoke , it just goes where I want it to

Some good close racing! Power and weight limits are definitely the way forward. I saved the replays. The Le Sarthe race with us neck and neck down the straight was just excellent.

I'm very happy with that Camaro, it sounds utterly immense and is a very neutral handler in 400bhp form. It's a tad lairy with 500bhp (chip + supercharger). I may race mod it, can you still change the colour of race modded cars?

PS. I set up a room with the same rules after you quit, had a couple of good races with 4 or 5 people in.

Would my Mazda AZ1 be ok for the noddy races?

I reckon so. It looks noddy enough!

I have a few noddy type cars

Oh lord, I think I'm going to have to spunk 150k on tuning that stupid thing now. 600kg and 150bhp will be the target I think.

I do really like the 400bhp 1300kg formula too, we should maybe get a little series going.

EFA

the CSL is now a bit slimmer

Edited by y2blade on Tuesday 30th November 10:09

[mackie1]

Hehe, so be it. I think I only did stage 1 lightening on the Camaro so I've got a bit of room Still not too far removed from "normal" performance road cars.
