BUMP

This is the scheduled April BUMP for the MCC thread.

I am considering (subject to the Chairman's approval) of doing (when I have time) a round-up of those threads or posts from the previous month which have relevance or interest to the MCC or simply contain an element of worth-mentioning humour....

If anyone feels that a particular thread or post is worthy of mention in the hallowed halls of the MCC then please feel free to pm me.

Chilli.
Self appointed Mod and the big guy's right hand man.

I'm feeling decidedly un hung with my barely modified 4.6!...join such hallowed monster cars(cocks) lol lol lol It's true blokes of my age have got porn or cars, the porn addiction has gone but the cars it's getting worse! In essence it's just to stop you pulling your rocket........ as often! Glad to goin the club as I've just fitted a sports air filter! Lol.
The MCC doesn't tolerate sexual weirdos. End of. You'll have to do better than a 'sports air filter' if you wish to become a member of this elite band of nutters.


QBee said:
Can I apply or membership please? I have had most of my significant parts V8 Developed in the last few weeks.....
Now this is interesting, as the applicant has previously stated that he was perfectly happy with his boggo 400... and indeed was a member of the UMCC.... (Damn you Goaty Bill) However, clearly this person has seen the light and has taken great steps to achieve the ultimate status of MCC membership... A worthy effort. Subject to the founders approval I would vote a big yes for QBee's membership. Notwithstanding this I suspect we would need the final stamp of the horse power council... Only Gas Munkey can access their mysterious wisdom......

This is a good moment to quote our glorious founder....

As club bouncer i feel i have to activate

Rule 38 paragraph 9..readit

Anybody that drills a bigger hole in their rocker breather hole and thinks it will make the engine breathe better are GUILTY of a false modification

therefore i propose to No.1 and No. 2 to ban indefinately

Until proven to be a certified modification

db418BHP said:
Thats a valid point and it would have to be taken to a committee vote. It has to be said that minor backward steps are part and parcel of a true MCC members path of ultimate modification.
So, SiliconeKid349HP, your membership, once confirmed, is now pending (again)... What do you have to say to this charge???


Cheers for now,

Chilli,

Self appointed mod of the MCC smile

If anything, the starter button will get you in!
I agree. If it wasn't for that starter button I would have suggested the moderately modified club. Pics of the button will be required before membership can be confirmed
Hehe, a pic of the starter button

As the self appointed MCC Mod and in the apparent absence of our esteemed founder I count you IN. Welcome to the MCC biggrin

The MCC is an elite group of suave and sophisticated TVR afficionados, a band of brothers if you will.. we do not tolerate mildly modified motors, smooth bore elbows, or mindless bragging. We are a collective of like minded performance oriented nutters who brook no excuses or weak pleading. To be accepted into the MCC brotherhood is an honour not bestowed on many, and you should be mindful of this when you post on this hallowed forum. The founder does not take fools gladly, and punishment is swift and incisive! Consider your membership a sacred thing, and always remember, those with unmodified cars are not true believers, and should be scorned (Goaty Bill take note!).

Sincerely yours,

Chilli (self appointed Mod of the MCC)

Oh, and nice button by the way wink









we also often talk complete bkswhistle

Can Derek confirm if I will still be in the group thanks .
Ahem. Derek is the MCC chairman, I, ChilliWhizz, am the official MCC moderator and right hand man to his awersomeness...

You have to go through me for any enquiries regarding membership... And be polite or you're out...

Has this club folded or what?
Anyway, I vote that Chilliman is kicked off and Mac is installed as the President of the club with his latest modded efforts.

Oh and can anyone lend me a tenner for some petrol?
You rotten barsteward N7GTXLRP45

I have only just seen this, and I have just two things to say, firstly, I am not and have never been president, I am the lowly (self appointed) moderator of this highly esteemed club.

Secondly, I noticed that nobody rushed to support me when N7P45 voted that I be kicked off. Well that's fine thanks for all these years of dedicated service to the MCC.

If that's how it is then I resign. Yes, that's right! I am now resigned.

Sincerely yours,
ChilliWhizz (& Beastie)

Please don't leave us Chilli. Was a slight misunderstanding. I hope you will take up your roll and maybe we could talk about a raise. You deserve one mate.
Was only kidding Derek thumbup

So, er, a raise you say?

What run down/drag/friction conversion factor are we using, 15%, 18% ??
On the assumption we're applying a fairly well accepted figure of 18% then by my calculations that gives me 518bhp & 496ft/lbs. at the flywheel, I'll leave this to Derek / Chilli to confirm before I add myself to the appropriate group.
Mighty impressive Richard biggrin
The simple calculation I have just undertaken in my bonce tells me that your flywheel bhp is indeed somewhere significantly North of 500 bow

So, if the upper limit for the MCC is 500, then clearly you are well in to MMCC territory... However, I am merely the (self appointed) mod for the MCC, and not empowered to make judgements on MMCC membership... Somebody should decide if the MMCC is a completely new and independent club, or if it will simply be an elitist branch of the MCC scratchchin
Such decisions are somewhat above the pay grade of a simple (self appointed) mod.....

Maybe we need to call a board meeting..... Someone should also let the horse power council know....

What would be Holy wrong and untoward would be to see the great wit Chilliwhizz step down,
Alun, your understanding and insightful perception, as always, brings an oasis of calm and sensibility to our desert of thundering monsters and testosterone laden antics... I salute you bow

Should you wish it, I have a jar of my latest chilli jam creation with your name on it, which I would be happy to send to you were I in possession of the address of your drum. Please note my latest creations can be laced with the little blue pill during the creation process, thus ensuring serious willy waving by lunchtime, should you partake of the fiery but fruity stuff for breakfast. I find this a particularly natty way of getting it up when one of my many lady friends is popping over for a bit... of lunch....

Kind regards to all,

Chilli... (self appointed mod of the MCC and custodian of the quickest 5.0 litre Chim on Gods earth.. and probably any other planet for that matter... No, feck it, make that the Galaxy)

Does the MMCC have to just be about power? Going round corners is pretty important as well smile

I propose a new a new points system for calculating if your in the MCC or MMCC -

Engine

1 point - 300+ BHP
2 points - 350+ BHP
3 points - 400+ BHP
4 points - 500+ BHP

Brakes

1 point - Uprated Front Brakes (4 pot)
2 points - Uprated Front Brakes (6 pot)
3 points - Uprated Front Brakes (4 pot) + uprated rear.
4 points - Uprated Front + Rear (6 pot + uprated rear)

Shocks

1 point - One Way Adjustable
2 point - Two Way Adjustable
3 point - Three Way Adjustable
1 extra point for springs above 500lbs
1 extra point for springs above 800lbs

Track Upgrades

1 point for having a roll bar
2 points for having a full cage

-

5 points get you into MCC
10 points or more to get into the MMC




Yes yes that's all very well Nick but the fact is that acceptance into the MCC has and always will be determined by our esteemed and revered Chairman (Derek) and his trusty all round good guy, the (self appointed) moderator (me)...

It is this arrangement that has prevented argument, conflict, and general anarchy since the clubs inception back in 2012....

On a separate note, I am thinking of volunteering myself to design (subject to approval) an MCC T shirt.... which if approved I would fork out the dosh myself to get a first batch made... biggrin

Reimbursement for said T shirt would be at cost, I don't need to make money from such a venture as I'm already fabulously wealthy biggrin

Opinions and T shirt design suggestions are very welcome smile

Its nearly a year since anyone updated this thread. sleeptumbleweed

There must be lots of you with turbos, s/chargers, big mods who have not applied to join Chilliwhizz's little club? scratchchin

The esteemed secretary ("all round good guy etc") must be dozing in his rocking chair....shout
Right...

Lets get a few things straight here....

Firstly, this isn't 'my little club', it belongs to the members, of which there are quite a few... I only got it off the ground, I am also only the (self appointed) secretary, for me this was unpaid work, undertaken at a time when I was exceptionally busy both working and socially. OK, busy working then... Our esteemed chairman, as many of you will know, is his straight line holiness Lord Dangerous Derek, who can often be found blowing engines up at weekends or rebuilding them on week days.

Given the number of peeps who have (since the club was inaugurated, back in the mists of time) gone turbo, it seems to me we need to redefine our earlier understanding of what modified and acceptable (with proof) power outputs might be in today's world of forced induction madness... Or, perhaps, have two classes of membership... NA membership and FI membership.... Usernames could be modified to reflect this, for example I could become ChilliWhizz NA... And my good friend N7GTX could become N7GTX FI...

I'll have to leave it here as beastie and I are off to a TVRCC regional meet somewhere in the depths of South Norfolkshire... at a Pub... beer

So, lets have some suggestions chaps... and thanks to N7GTX FI for giving us this opportunity to reinvent the MCC

Best wishes,

MCC (self appointed) club secretary,

Chilli thumbup

If your Chimaera has a dyno printout of 350 bhp minimum at the fly AND/OR a drag race slip with a terminal speed over 115 AND/OR an ET of 11.999 or less then you qualify for MCC membership simple.
