Wormus nobodies car breaks more than yours, but then you don't show at any events so no one knows how yours would perform.

Bonnie it was HarryOZ that said something broke on his in an earlier thread, saw it before leaving for work this morning so its not like wormus was "making something up" - Harry did say hopefully it was the top end this time. As for people not turning up at events - lots of folk have reasons for attending or not be they personal, financial or work related. I for instance would have loved to attend and had it been the previous Sunday that might have been possible as it was at the start of a holiday week, a 300 mile plus trip home after a day at thunder road with work the next day however - no thanks and hearing that 4 cars went bang in some form or other either there or on way home makes me kinda glad I wasnt there as a 300 mile recovery would not have been fun. Sure wormus and others on here had their own reasons for not attending. He didnt seem to be having a pop at anyone, so surely no need to have a pop at him?

Take it as you like. I replied to Wormus and Stig. Why are you taking it personally?
ETA where did i say Wormus was "making it up"? And i think you'll find Matt black wallpaper whether it be tongue in cheek (as i'm sure it was) or not is a "pop"
I never said there was nothing wrong with Harry car. I did say it was a hitch, which it was

Mel, I was only trying to be amusing. I couldn't go to the event because I'm in Munich for work otherwise I would have been there. My car is fine thank you and has been for some time so I don't know why you think it breaks more than anyone else's?

Chill guys and girls! Whatever, it beats sorting the plugged up cess-pit at my 'new' house. Try dealing with two years of someone else's poo to get some perspective!

Wish I had been there even in my blunted nose beast!

Yeah, there was more, I just couldn`t drive her well as its been a while, plus I now find out I was shy of full boost due to operator error.

200 may be difficult with the current gearing though as it may be just beyond the limiter in 5th (In fact sod`s law dictates it will be)

Indeed. I'm sure you'll manage it at VMax. Anyway Jez, didn't you get the gearing changed to achieve it?

Thanx, I hope so.

Well the diff was the main change at the moment, custom gear sets are coming though

dunno was someone that was there suggested 4 had failed in other thread, think you said it was 2 from here - someone mentioned a beemer - no idea who 4th was supposed to be.

btw the wrapped look just looks better and better with every set of photos I see of it - looks almost evoke grey in the latest set. is that just the light or is it a dark grey rather than a black wrap?

Ringram couldnt get 5th gear.... which ruled him out, but not sure that counts as going 'bang'.
