Default Its moved, cant be long now

Thats as far as its moved but im happy & am now going to clean it before a trip to BTB exhausts & lots of fiddly bits require re-fabricating & then its on to mapping not my favourite thing be assured.

With the tyres in the pic its geared for 210+. My guess 205/207, so will take two other sets of wheels so the optimum can be found, This is my last fling at this so we will be really trying to set a speed that will be very hard to beat. Race fuel next time for sure, Note the go-faster stickers on the door must be worth 2mph & i may take the other seats & trim this time. Im now a proper motorsport person .

Whys that then, if it does 210+ it can have a weeks delay, a GT35
will bolt straight back on if its not suitable for the road, i trust Sheady to get it right, you will not get the info on this Turbo, Ranj & I have paid for the secrecy on this one, its special & not what it appears.

i am being quite serious here, why not fit a chute to give you another few feet before the breaking zone and for that just in case security ???????????

a lot can go wrong very very quickly at that speed and your run off isn't very big

Fitting a chute to a 16 year old car I'd be amazed if the rear end doesn't snap right off the front of the car when you deploy it

Only kidding, I think it's a great idea from a safety point of view.

Good luck rod

Yes have looked at this already, its a neat kit & can be talen off easily.
The jag diff is used for this type of thing all the time. Its probably illegal at totb so i will prob not fit it.
