Aye it seems a minor issue when I spoke to will ... Just coolant leak.


They are quick ... But when you see a black 3dr gain and pull past them on the straights like I've seen a couple of times here then ... :shocked:

Staffi Apr 1, 2013 01:20 PM

dug112y Apr 1, 2013 01:26 PM

On stu's video of ronnies car on the rollers it looks like something is happening on the inlet side could that be coolant.?

What boost he running then?

Staffi Apr 1, 2013 03:42 PM

Anymore news?

Rsmat Apr 1, 2013 04:36 PM

Head wanted nipping up when I left... Got a coolant leak .. And was running 34psi iirc... A part from that it was flying !

DazC Apr 1, 2013 05:05 PM

Sounds like the old coolant spraying out of the NS bonnet vent issue!

Rsmat Apr 1, 2013 05:16 PM
