Aluminium rollcage?

Might as well have a load of coke cans strapped together in there, be just as effective in an accident!

Looking good though.

16.5 @83mph ;)

Fair do'S, I got a 15.998 at 83...weird how faster time but same speed :)

I know the physics dont make any sense to me! :p

That's understandable, it confuses me how I get a higher top speed but a slower run! Haha

I think the fact I have to do an extra gearchange might account for some of the extra time

looking good! Good tyres on them BBS aswell lol

Yeah I love my vredsteins, they were great on track and they're really good in the wet.

yeah but yours is a much heavier car, nicks will launch off the line well and get a head start, but youll make up for it on top end power, just not enough time for you to catch up!

Dunno I went 6 tenths faster including an extra change lol :) it's weird, you is got torques but bigger load to get moving

16.5 is still a bloody good time!!

Eric, are you just following Harris wherever he goes today? :p

If my mk3 isn't low 15's on bodies I'm gonna cry.

Anyway not gonna ruin another persons build thread haha, nice motor ;)

Eric, are you just following Harris wherever he goes today? :p
