Hopefully its not too serious. But if he was running it as lean as it was then it sounds serious.

I went yesterday and camped over last night, just got back home. Im now feeling really depressed at the sight of loads of hot girls with proper chavs what is this world coming to?

That aside i have loads of pics on my phone i will upload soon. That silver Irmscher corsa B is i felt like going over to the guy and asking if he wanted to sell. My mate goes, look at that, bet its a 1.2, then i pointed out the rear disks and 3.0l front brakes

that silver corsa lives just around the corner from me. he is an absolute perfectionist when it comes to that car. the engine bay is rediculously immaculate and hes just fitted a turbo to it.

I went and Enjoyed!

The last 2 Time Attack sessions were quality! Trying to watch the drivers control 600,700,800+bhp cars in the snow! AWESOME Poor old RC Developments though... 2nd year in a row there 1000bhp machine went pop right in front of me! This time some big flames and the car jumping through the air





And who's is this and whats the Turbo Engine Spec

I watched it struggling for grip on too sessions late in the day... WHAT A NOISE! it was up there with the RC Scooby for Decibels

I went for the weekend too, gotta admit this was prob the worst year yet. Poor weather and poor layout (very hard to get to a good viewing point for the track)

anyway some of my pics:

the campsite this morning





















and my car, not really show worthy but oh well

Will do buddy, did sound very good indeed, he was goin past everything on the straight i saw him on for the 15mins, and he certainly wasnt holding back i was stood by the entrance to where they let all the spectators cars on, we walked up to the corner you were on this afternoon, but left about 1.30 as we were all abit tired and worst for wear after the conditions that had been thrown at yous over the 3 days

thats mine mate, 357bhp and yeh its brilliant fun, dont like holding back, had brilliant fun, managed 7 sessions over the two days, suffered from an engine fire and snapped cv joint but its all in the learning curve, nothing to do with it running lean it was absolutely fine, manifold got too hot burnt my breather from rocker to dipstick spat oil on the manifold and up she went, didnt realise it was on fire till the session ended and we pulled off then it went up in flame, marshels put it out, new silicone breather on and it fires straight up ready for another 5 sessions today, managed 2 and snapped a cv joint so went home got another shaft came back and fixed it then did another 3 sessions, cheers for the comments had loads of fun, only went for the track didnt evan bother with the show, check my projects thread for spec etc,

cheers
