Recently started looking on here and thought I'd post my wheels.
I've got a westfield that I've raced for the past 3 seasons, I turbo'd it myself last year after winning my club championship the previous season. She's got 246 whp and 160 ft/lb at 10psi, but I will be upping the boost to 14psi which should equate to 290hp and 200ft/lb at the wheels. The car weighs 530kg with a full cage and fuel. I'm running Nitron shocks with front and rear antiroll bars and use both Avon ACB10's and slicks depending on which class I'm racing in. Before it was turbo'd I did a 52.3s lap at Brands and I'm hoping this season to dip into the 49's, as this has always been an ambition of mine. I used to race bikes and only ever managed a 51.rolleyes
I've also got an XKR Silverstone, there were only 100 of these built for the home market, 50 coupe and 50 convertible. It comes standard with 20" BBS split rims, huge 14" Brembo's and uprated suspension. The interior is a gorgeous charcoal with double red stitching and Birds eye maple woodwork. The only upgrade it has is a full Milltek exhaust including sports cats and it's been chipped to suit, giving it over 400hp and derestricting the top speed.
I've also got a VW LT van as a towing barge for the race car and a Fiat diesel estate for work and the dog!laugh

That Jaguar is beautiful. Those XKR's have some of the nicest car seats around.

It's an LT35 1998 2.5tdi and it pulls like a goodun! You can sit at 70 ( or 80) all day with the trailer on and still get decent mpg.
