Whats on peoples shopping list mods wise after Thunder Road?

[after_shock]

I think Monkfish should have sponsored (i.e paid) for the event the amount of business they are likely to now get from the day, wink wink for the next one

Whos doing what next after today?

Something thats jumped right up my list to do is the clutch after seeing and hearing how they easily reach the limit even on the 1st run up the strip.

Naturally more power is now needed and quick but also the realisation that will never have anything like Jez's or Harry's will stop me going nuts on the power front. Thanks again for the run Jez it was a fantastic experience!

Yep it was a stunning bit of kit, darent guess how much it cost as it was!

The E-type was probably my overall favourite, the engine was a work of art fantastic to see and hear.

anyone needing the bottom end of a LS1 can negotiate for the one lying in my shed lol

Seriously though how many cars failed today and what was in them - supercharged or not and if so what were they fitted with?

I think 4 failed in total including the BMW with the LS engine in although I could be wrong.

Thats a lot of cars :yikes : I thought our cars were bomb proof ??

Might keep the modifications to a minimum if thats the case.

[jumplead]

I think most of the non 'transplant' cars that had problems were clutch related.

In serious answer to the original question.... Tyres and i've always had a niggle for a low boost centrifugal supercharger for the TVR... Maybe a sub 30 second mile should be my target

Think it was just Phil and Harry at the end. (Forum cars that is)

I just need more petrol
No more mods required. More power is un-useable IMO.
