Yesterday my son phoned me to say that my car was entered at a RR shootout on Sunday he had been told on facebook . I had agreed this before the Vmax probs, im still waiting for a new pre-rad & the heat shields etc are not in place so had decided it would not be possible to run. Under pressure from my son I rang Mark & said is it still possible, he replied yes we can run without pre-rad & shields. So today we went to RR & did a trial run.
They had problems as soon as it came on boost it slipped etc. Yes all straps were correctly applied . I had fitted My spare old tyres 215-40-17 on the rear as it was all I had in the time frame my 888's & Dunlops were not suitable .
Will have wider tyres for actual shoot-out & Mark will fit new plugs as we had a slight problem with the ones fitted. Im sure Mark will answer any tech questions. Theirs is a video of it but not sure if Mark can edit it so may have to wait for that.
The event will be interesting a guy with a supercharged 7litre V8 also pushing over 800bhp will be present + Ades Cossie & a few others.
