Default Who thinks the Reyland car is gonna be special?

As in wow factor for breaking records?....Obviously he is a competative person so he will be doin his best to beat MAD yes?

Could 2005 be the most mental year for Cosworths?..I think so

Phil,
Martin's car will be more special than even a retard like you can be classed as "special" .

However, I concur that next year will be year of the Cossie, as the following cars will be finished in 2005:
Sean Bicknell's
Karl Norris's
Brom's
Martin Hadlands
Porkies
Ranj's
Dumped's

Please note, no mention of yours . Prove me wrong .

Stu.....my only aim is to get the car to the end of the straight and record a MPH time ....This is my dilema though at what BHP i should aim for...unfortunately i dont want toi just do a certain MPH only cause i aint got enuff power.....i want to do a speed where i say..i dont think we need to go faster....BUT with the higher top speed comes more risk of blowing.

150mph...piss easy
160mph...piss easy
170mph...easyish with 500bhp
180mph..fooking getting dodgy
190mph..the end is near
200mph..no fooking way

What i have put myself into is probably going to be the hardest thing i ever do...mind you i am already a laughing stock so i aint got much to prove

Acutally this could be your chance to give a big middle finger to all those who repeatedly take the piss

Alternatively you fail and there would be no end to the piss takes and snide remarks

Top speed will be VERY hard without Nos.... 202 at Brunters is VERY fast

You say breaking Records??? well he still has the 0-60, 0-100, and Topspeed without Nos... so not doing too bad still is he Kev has obviously gone faster over the 1/4 but needed gas.

Seans car will be off the radar and VERY VERY fast upto 180 so I think Martin will NEED to break his OWN records in an attempt to try and keep up with Seans car which WILL be sooo mad

Don't forget though, once again Martin will be building a multi-purpose car with HUGE emphasis on being a Track Toy.. NOT a drag or topspeed car!

there's no doubt it will be awesome, but beat the topspeed record? i thought that he likes to build cars that are quick for the track, and the gearing necessary to get the topspeed record would maybe compromise that too much?

we'll see.

Is this not just a post to lick someone's arse?

Surely everyone on here KNOWS it will be special or he wouldnt be bothering at all?

Hi Chip, I know it seems like that... but trust me it isn't!

I suspect a few of our more seasoned Pf users will see this post in the same way I do!

As long as they female glamour models, not 3 18 y/o dudes with their schlongs out
Tho mike might dissagree

I dont think Phil said it to lick ass, i think he said it hoping itd cause an argument or trouble, like every other post, ever.

Give it time, give it time....

Of course some records will go - have you seen the level of competitiveness?

This lot would race each other getting dressed in the mornings - and no, that's nothing to do with Mike being present

Martin would ALWAYS win that one... he always falls alseep in his clothes! No need to get dressed Sean would be a close second... he gets up at Silly o'clock, but then he goes to bed before anyone else.

From what ROD was saying his car is easily capable of beating the top speed without gas record, he just hasnt run it without nitrous to record a figure yet.

top speed aside the most complete track Escort Cos by a mile at this time it the Jenspeed Car ok it had a huge budget thrown at it and i dont know how much Martin or Sean have to spend But If Martin, Sean can build cars anywhere near or even better it will truely be a feat of engineering I hope they can suprise everyone with what they create
