Pectel. Another year without you .

If I let you borrow mine (which is converted to coilpack), would it just be a case of putting in your chip in place of mine on the day?

We had twenty cars at one time, but this has dwindled to just 8, as peeps have either run out of time or are running scared .

wel i know some peeps that wanted to be in the RST team but there was no qualifying and the teams were chosen - a bit unfair on the peeps who dont regularly use the boards IMO.

The car i am thinking of a very sweet and fast red fezzie - u know who u are just remember my passenger ride

Or they've done a triple salco with pike into a field in Morocco...
Or they've got an engine which will do the business, but haven't got the cash to buy a strong enough gearbox...

Sorry Kevin, i didnt realise you were currently running L8

Your right mate, you need a complete remap from scratch.


So you best refit the coil, and Level 8 then eh?

And yet more bullshit about the crash... for fooks sake it was only a double salco and it finished with a twist not a pike. Bloody rumour mill

Excuse me but is that team spirit I can smell???

Ian, car is mental over the 1/4 but needs to do a good topspeed as well and thats something Kev has always struggled with coz of bloody misfire.

I don't blame him one bit for not wanting to go without a car that is 101% right either

I've already offered him any parts of mine that will help. Fingers crossed we can come up with a solution. Dan seems to have just come up with one
