I know. I haven't spoken to Jake about it, but if he was prepared to get it sorted and perhaps make a date for a week or two then I would be up for waiting......

Although I understand if he doesn't.

why not go against a ZVH or 16v or whatever as you are always fighting for 1600s - a real grudge match

Christian-

I was under the impression it had to be this week for the mag deadline-

If you want to put it back a few weeks then it might be a different story... having said that I have just spent shit loads of money in the last week to try and get ready for thursday and I am feeling quite dejected at the moment-

Having said that, on the way home it was quite amusing and scary at the same time running 22psi held with a fooked box jolting every now and again.

Karl said it IS faster than ever before so would have been fun.

Jakes car was ideal.......

Both 1600CVH 8 Valves. Well developed, but still realistic. No-one really knows which is fastest, so would have been interesting.

I have built a 1600CVH and to be honest, I could have built a fairly respectable 2.1 16v with the bits that have gone into it, but I wanted to stay 1600 for other reasons. If I wanted to get mauled and made to look a total prat, I would have suggested going up against Sunny, but thats not what I want.

I want to go against another car where they will be a close match, I mean whats the point pitching me against another RS Turbo with more horsepower. Its a foregone conclusion?

On the other hand, I reckon a 350bhp Cossie would be just as interesting. Who knows?......

I know you said 1600 but what about my old car? I'm sure andy would be up for it. He just did a 112mph terminal at the pod. Should be decent top speed too....

The car is ready to roll as far as I know...

Seriously, (before the post turns to shit) if you get really stuck and if you think it's possible Mr C and Gary, discuss it in the morning and give me a buzz.

Good idea IMO to have Tony as Grudge match, same spec cars nearly aren't they?

What about Mulheran's old car? or was that a 1900cvh?
