This is true, my 4x4 Noble couldn't stick with the Evo, and no I didn't overtake the 4x4 Lamborghini
If the weather is good, will try to pop along.
That's what's the 0.01% is for.If the weather is good, will try to pop along.
I still cant beleive we didnt find you sticking out of a hedge, I didnt know the road, but the pace you went round the blind bends was ballsy - I backed off and I had 4wd ! That downforce was mighty impressive.

Dont worry, he only pulled 20 feet on a 0-130 dash. Give me a fresh 3" exhaust and i'll be able to match it.

It was certainly 'exciting' trying to keep up in my Fiat! I still cant beleive we didnt find you sticking out of a hedge, I didnt know the road, but the pace you went round the blind bends was ballsy - I backed off and I had 4wd ! That downforce was mighty impressive.

Looks like the long range forecast means I am more likely to be coming to this, than Santa Pod.
I guess I shouldn't be sad faced but I really wanted to rip up the 1/4 mile this weekend and empty that bottle of NOS. Maybe if someone has a 10mm bolt fed regulator we could all use the nitrous on sunday to make everything seem a lot funnier than it really is?! Oh, its raining, hahahahahaha!
One of us is going to be very wrong. I have Sunday down as a Z4 day and roof down all the way at that. Fingers crossed and enjoy the 1/4 mile when I'm right.I guess I shouldn't be sad faced but I really wanted to rip up the 1/4 mile this weekend and empty that bottle of NOS.

Why don't you go to Shakey? its half the distance or smeatharpe is on saturday and they do run the 1/4mile in the rainI guess I shouldn't be sad faced but I really wanted to rip up the 1/4 mile this weekend and empty that bottle of NOS.

Smeatharpe surface is shocking, and santa pod only going because its a GTI/VW focussed show. Normally wouldn't go that far for a RWYB day. I do need to get to Shakey at some point, but its still a fair distance - probably 2/3 of the way compared to the Pod.Will have to wait until Saturday until I know what I am doing on the Sunday. Might well be wet in Devon, but dry in Northamptonshire, so will need to make that call when more accurate forecasts come out.

its not until sunday?
Im not here, so i had my "fun" tonight. And fun it very much was! Although, i reset the trip when i left home and some how it was reading 19.3 when i arrived home, down from the usual 21 mpg.
So either
1)fuel computer is broken
2)it's a hybrid and i dont know it
3)im not doing it properly
I will settle for 19 mpg, happily!

sorry the "had as much fun" confused me 19mpg, good work
I would love to see 19 mpg on a run! I can see the fuel gauge going down when I have the taps open I get 21 mpg over a tank and that is being careful God I hate spending so much time at the petrol stationBenbay001 said:

Get yourself an upgraded supercharger pulley from Phoenix Coachworks in Collumpton and you'll see ALL the benefits too
