Owners Chim Pics
Discussion
to be honest, although I've had a Griff myself, on that picture I like the Chimaera's rear the most of all 4 cars. (dare I say that...
)Hi Peter ,
seems to be ok but was quite sluggish to accelerate out of the corners and top speed down the back straight was just over 120mph ? I haven't done anything to the engine since I brought it and don't know what cam is in it. I gad to fit extra silencers due to the sleeve exhaust so that could have some effect ?
Otherwise the bmw front brakes worked great with lots of feel and didn't get too hot but the fuild still expanded and spilled out the filler cap on master cylinder. Good job I'm not worried about the engine bay paint
The shocks could have done with being stiffened up on the front as I was lifting a back wheel into a couple of the corners under braking usually when I left the braking a bit late.
Otherwise it was a good day with everyone behaving themselves. Need to replace the front tyres now
Cheers
Geoff

That's about the right top speed. I have managed 135 mph on the first half of the long straight, but .....epic fail.....didn't make the chicane. 125 was my normal top speed with 1000 cc more than you. Porsche GT3 RS did 147.....
It's how it corners that matters, and how much fun you had. What tyres are you now on?
