well ive got a brinters VMAX day coming up, very very excited, bit nervous as the escos is going to be run up to vmax a few times, hopefully it'll do her good and blow all the carbon built up out the motor, hopefully the weeny T28 wont swallow itself!!!

so come on then predictions, what do you think my small turbo car will top out at?, shes got mongoose 3" bore system, and panel filter, ermm thats it!! lol

140?

what do these cars feel like at vmax? stable or abit skitish and whats the chances of me damaging somethink? lol

buftyness has well and truely been left behind!!

 

What sort of disance is it over??
I know my car feels a bit light around 120 but had it showng 150+ and over 130 seems to smooth out and feels better.

 

where is it, and over what distance have you got to play with.

Cant imagine you will break anything, but holding it at full load in 5th gear for quite a while will generate some heat and maybe put a fair bit of strain on things!

just make sure you give it plenty of time to cool after your long runs!

 

its at brunters!!!! i want that exhaust blowing flames!! if its not im not trying hard enough

 

 

Took my small turbo to 150 and held it melted a piston though never agian.

 

Whats a Brunters V-Max day?? Never heard of it........

 

max its run by piston heads, basically it for the elite exotica but they let other attend on a waiting list, full of f40s, f50s last time they had the icon yellow bird ruf turbo 911 killing pretty much everythink!!! was awesome, not only do you have amazing fun but you get to see some awesome cars getting beasted, as well as all footage recored and photos as well!! cant wait, im defo blagging a ride in the yellow bird!

 

how long was you @ 150? these cars are designed to be run up and definarly need a good blowout now and again, so maybe you had a problem elsewhere and doing the run showed up the issue.

 

When is it cahzz?

 

135 .

 

I recon 141 with the rear wing still std I take it cahzz? I had 150mph on mine on the clock, std including the wheels, so 140ish sounds plausable - just keep your eye on the boost guage, if it starts creeping to red at the top of 5th, just ease off very slightly

 

just a small question but you are aware that brunters is the worst place for bolders to hit you MINT paintwork mate ??? you know that about brunters yes??? so if it comes back a bit chipped you wont be disheartened??

 

adam i didnt know that but you no what, its a car, and i can get it re-painted!!! like i said ive truely dismissed all buftyhood!!!

plus theirs no-one in front of you to flick up the rocks in the first place

 

thats ok then

 

get it thrashed - infact, just pull the actuator pipe off

 

i have to admit it wont be ragged to death im just going to gently take her up to vmax as im planning on doing it more than once!! tbh i think it will be good for it as well its probably dying to get some proper heat in that motor, needs a good blow out!!

 

go for it mate

mine spits flames when toying around

 

I did suspect the chip on mine and im pretty sure it leaned right off judging by the state of the piston.

 

rene i wish mine did but ive had my mongy for about 2 weeks now? and not once has t even made any sort of bang noise!!!! tell me the secret please!!!

 

to be honest ive got used to the mongoose now and it think its way to quiet, im amazed a 3" bore system is so quiet, defo need the centre box removing

 

make it hot

pick an industrial area and choose a small piece of road with for example a nice 90 degree bend into it then just keep playing in the bend and downshift nice ... you will feel the exhaust getting hotter by feeling on the gear stick
