  1. Looking good Stu How near till shake down? Will 1st round be the date http://prostreetdragseriesuk.freeforums.org/2010-psds-dates-t567.html or is Pod the more likely venue? Gaz
  2. Race weekend at Shakey on 18th but good for other dates Blackpool or East coast is ok with me. 3 lane rolling road can be done on a Blackpool trip I must also make sure i've got enough fuel in the car so a quick splash and dash isn't required
  3. Have a looked at these if a new turbo is needed, so far mine as run trouble free, i dont do the same amount of miles as you though http://www.billetturbochargers.com/About_Billet.ews
  4. Pictures of the flames would be good
  5. Took the car out for a test run this afternoon and fill up with fuel, nice sunny afternoon All ready for tomorrow Boost leak means power levels will be down tomorrow but not bothered A job for the next couple of weeks finding out were its leaking from before 1st race weekend at Shakespeare Any Notts lads fancy the trip, i'm meeting some of the Chesterfield lads off M1 J29 at 09:15 if your interested?
  6. Happy birthday Jay Have a good one
  7. Think it was this one Judas Priest were featured a lot. Great band watched them at Leicester De Montfort Hall http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b00r600m/Heavy_Metal_Britannia/
  8. Watched this last night great stuff My air guitar was straight out of the case, the neighbours must have woundered what was happening as i didn't finish until midnight and i had the volumne right up There was an heavy metal program on before this with some good interviews and loads of different bands from the mid 70's onwards
  9. 993's have s/s rims http://www.wheelworx.net/acatalog/BK_Racing.html
  10. I'm up for this Don't know who will be with me as the wife asked if we could go in the merc instead She's not thrilled at being in the test pilots seat Anybody else from Mansfield area fancy travelling up there?
  11. I've got one and it works ok with my G3, Pete installed and set it up The original mounting bracket from an iphone(i think that is what was used, any large phone holder would do) broke so i've made an adaptor plate that fits above the radio and can be unplugged and stored in glove box. It could be fixed into dash but i wanted it removable. Pic below shows it when used with iphone window suction cup
  12. Hi and welcome Any pics and car details? Where you from in Notts?
  13. I have a rol bar thats bolt in, wouldn't think of taking it out when using the car on the road. Also wouldn't wear my helmet when on the road, but i do use my 5 point harness. My thoughts are that if anything did happen the harness would keep me in the seat and not to much body movement. When having a roll bar fitted make sure it has clearance above your head, this would allow for the extra space needed for your helmet if your are wearing it. Roll bar padding is neaded on any part of the roll bar that your 'helmet' may strike. So surley the extra space means that if you are strapped into your seat with an harness the chances of hitting your head are reduced? If you are going to the trouble of having a good quality roll bar fitted and don't bother with an harness of good quality what the point? 'For show' You may also want to think on how good the roll bar if fixed to the car? Insurance companies may view most people that fit roll bars as only doing half a job? Just my thought on the subject
  14. skeleton what speeds these do on a beer tray without handles face down as well
  15. The dates for this years events at Shakespeare have just been finalised 5 rounds of the Pro Street Drag Series, free entry just visit the web site and become a memeber then turn up and race http://prostreetdragseriesuk.freeforums.org/index.php If you dont want to race but fancy a good days racing come along, say hello if you you see any club members there. There are a few of use that run in this series and hopefuly Stu will be running his new build there this year click to enlarge
  16. Great stuff Good flat tarmac with no pot holes and no traffic, would take some finding over here at the moment
  17. So if reg plate age and vin code dont match its tested at 'older more leanient' levels?
  18. Don't think it 'old wives' tale i think it true, which could be very handy for you as i think it would be a bit difficult to get a single through an emissions test
  19. Good save for the extra bucks When i change mine chrome moly will be the way i go, cheers for the info Wes
