Saw a very similar looking car doing the same thing in a local car park to me - guy did it right underneath the CCTV camera as well the loon

Left some very nice tight black donut rings as well

My question though - does it go as well in a straight line as it does round and round? Or have you not found yet

Its going ok in a straight line but is still on standard management, hopefully getting some new chips turning up next week, with those and the new injectors I should see about 260bhp or so instead of the 210 or so it is now.

Main thing it needs to be faster though is the new rear suspension setup im goign to swap to as its got massive amounts of rear bump steer at the moment which limits the performance potential.

Yes mate, calibra front end in the back of it

I'll get some pics, not really got any at the moment, although TBH it still needs a bit of tidying up so might wait a while rather than have people going "oh that wire isnt very neat" etc

I put this engine and box in and made all the gear linkage etc from scratch, but the shell was more or less there when I bought it as it was converted to be mid engined with a N/A motor and 5 speed box (its now a turbo and 6 speed), all the mechanicals on the car have been replaced since I got it, so its just the interior and the shell thats not my own work now basically.

Ive converted it all to 5 stud running gear since ive had it too.

Just reminded me when you were doing them in "Carrefor" or however you spell it in France on RTTG and the Armed police turned up Then they wouldnt let you back on Euro Star

Those were the days

Took me 4 hours arguing nearly before the French police let me go, in the end they waited for a copper from england to come accross on the tunnel and inspect the car as they wouldnt believe it was UK road legal

3, too much free time on your hands
