Normal is getting dressed in clothes that you buy for work and driving through traffic in a
car that you are still paying for - in order to get to the job you need to pay for the clothes
and the car, and the house you leave vacant all day so you can afford to live in it.

Ill give you a clue for the pic - Sing the Dead or Alive song. You **** me right round baby right round like a record baby right round round round............


I have to ask - what sort of performance are you getting? Approx will do. Mine is struggling to get past 90 at the mo. Still pinking (ive got more fiddling to do). Did a 0-60 dash in 6.8 yesterday, i messed up the launch and got a fair amount of spin in 2nd so i didnt think it was too bad. Ive asked Mark for quote to set it up.

Ahhh got ya.

I'm not allowed to cane it yet Darren. I'm under strick instructions from Mark to not go above 4000 revs for the first 500miles. Ive only done 180 up to last sunday when I started experiencing oil starvation problems when I lifted off the accelerator, also worse when I braked but Ive toppe dup the oil and will hopefully have resolved that issue. You sound like your not too happy with 6.8 ........

Good point Jos, forgot about your running in restrictions.

6.8 sounds good on paper but in reality its not that much. I wont be happy till i get sub 6 secs but to be honest i dont think my wallet will appreciate that goal!!

Oil starvation doesnt sound funny. I guess its all a matter of getting used to where the new dipstick level is on your modded sump. Mine seems to be happy within the std marks, doesnt surprise me as i tried to maintain the std volume. My sump is heavily baffled inside so i dont thing it will move round much. I just wish i could get it to seal - bloody thing is leaking at the gasket. need to investigate further before track days come round.

Hi boys glad to hear your both out and about getting some practice in , in your cars. 6.8 to 60mph aint too bad with the current lack of warmth and grip ,should loose a second off that real easy.My becs still in the garage it's a bit too greasy on the roads yet (nearly spun it in a staight line) Looking forward to seeing Darrens car in the flesh and Jos'es all legal and done after sva. Soon be summer then the fun can really start!!

I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.
