Chip its best to leave hemel untill it warms up mate.... there are a few "hardcore" who still go down, best bet is to check www.fttf.co.uk in the warmer months and check the msg board.

chip
does it still have the original floor numbers or have they been ground off
If it still has them then I probably know a way to get it properly re-registered and not on a q either.
If they are gone then its q plate city.

Its got the turbo motor from the old car, but tuned a little more and with a progressive nitrous kit.
Should be around 400bhp, is under 1000kgs and obviously has the grip advantage too as its mid engined RWD.

Ok Fletch mate will do, probably be next week.
How does the escort box hold up to 400bhp, or is it not a standard box?
Andy, that red nova of mine ended up with quite a reputation around sutton, i had loads of people in stuff like supra's who just wouldnt race me up the mile after seeing what id done to other people up there.
I LOVE sleepers
Im guessing no one is surprised at me finally getting a cossie, it had to happen at some point, ive wanted one for at least a dozen years, I was just waiting for the right one to come up at the right price etc.

Hello chip m8. It is john who used to have the red scoob.
Long time no see
Im back in cossie ownership at last. Still good to see you building daft novas. That one you let me drive when you came up here karting was daft, seems even better now though

The black one is mid engine conversion at the moment, i took out the 268bhp nitrous'd N/A motor and am fitting a 250bhp + 100bhp nitrous turbo motor instead, plus a 6 speed box and torque biasing diff

pah, you'll lose, thats a high 13 second car.
mind you at the moment you will win, i took a tyre off the rim a couple of weeks ago and the ntrous is half removed to be fitted properly as i had to fit it in a rush in the queue at the pod, lol

The red nova is well slow without gas, its only a standard calibra engine, runs a 15 flat, lol
You would kick my arse without the gas.
Black one will beat you, but is off the road, and the mini it wont even be a race, lol
anyway, a pint is more important than a race anyway, lol

Sorry, couldn't resist, but good to see another familiar face on PF, and nice one on the 3 door, looks like it'll be good fun, especially the way you drive
