Nash

Thanks for the replies people.

Its not something that has happened to me, has happen to a very good friend though. I cant see it ending well tbh, but thats the other parties problem.

Nash

Just one out on interest really.

Copying someones ideas that they spent time working out and proving work and claiming you thought of them yourself? Letting someone design and create something then copying and selling it on yourself? Oh and all of this while supposed to be a mate?

People's views?

Nash

Did people also get banned for quoting rave on .org. :?: Well theres and easy way to find out if the money grabbing Charlie Uniform November Tango has bought the forum. Rave is amazing, its a very good source of info amongst other things. Now go get yourself a copy [As MG/Rover no longer exist hows...

Nash

Take it you mean Russ?

Nash

Shen just feather the throttle it really isnt hard to do mate. 60% throttle is the same in a Nasp car or a Turbo car i dont get your thinking mate.

Alot of people use the accelerator like a switch and thats where they go wrong, they really do need to learn that it has more options than on or off.

Nash

esprit turbo, realy success story there. F40 how old and whats it been replaced by? XJ220 was just aweful from the word go. Im sure you guys could have a huge list of race cars with turbos, and im sure non turbo cars would be up there with them. if they are so amazingly good, why arnt they used mor...

Nash

Surely they are worth selling on to a parts company. I am amazed how clean everything still is despite previous pics showing pools of moss covered water. It's as if it could spring to life in a jiffy. I am still angry that the company went the way it did.. :evil: If you look at the signs theres ove...

Nash

Just do the freelander HG conversion and sorted

Nash

I have been around for a while.

Nash

All chavs [neds for Ross] should be given Crystal Meth free, no more chavs after a year and problem solved.

Nash

Cheers Ross very good mate. Tbh i wouldnt go for R888's as they are really soft, i would go for yoko AO48's in hard medium/hard compound. They will last a 20 min session without going off like the 888's and last longer wear wise. Also good to compare the Evo against the Saph, look how things have mo...

Nash

Benji i think you will find it did have a rear spoiler on for Gumball. At the start yes. But if you actually watch when it overtook (undertook :wink: ) someone a split second before the accident, it didn't. It did look bloody awesome as it went past that other car though. Absolutly blew it off the ...

Nash

I would like to see a vid of it around track mate. Be good to see you at TOTB if work doesn't shaft me, i will get the BBQ going mate dont worry. I am hoping to get a drive of Jase's around the handling this year as i missed out last year. Only problem is wont have driven a FWD car for over a year w...

Nash

Benji i think you will find it did have a rear spoiler on for Gumball. Having seen Martins car go on low boost at Donington in the wet i would say its the fastest on here. Jase's car is an amazing allround car + it helps that Jase turns into Mr Hyde when he gets behind the wheel. Ross's coupe is def...

Nash

Pretty sure the Cosworth Name was sold a coulple of years ago, the engineering company is still going strong and making bits for many race cars and for scoobies aswell now bud. Tony your mates car was a 4x4[needs a bloody good wash aswell] so they loose almost 100bhp through the transmission. I dont...

Nash

Never said it didnt have the engine 100's of cars have used cosworth engines. Like i said everyone has there own views on Cossies, one thing you can never take from them though is how well they did in Touring cars, and Rallying in the 80's and 90's. They have had there day thats for sure. The proble...

Nash

Shen i think you will find the 1.8 BDT in tyhe RS200 wasn't the engine to produce 600bhp but the 2.1 BDT. Oh and it was never classed as a Cosworth either. A standard Escos vr's a Rover turbo is over before its even started, i know i as i have been there when i had the GSi Turbo. The car weighs abou...

Nash

Nice project Martin! Should be amazing once finished.

Did you use the same painter that did the Escort? If so the finish will be stuning as the Escort looked stuning at Ford Fair.

P.s. Saw you last month going down A14 to daddy thrash aswell.

Nash

ST's are supposed to be around 225bhp as standard but in reality thats probably the minimum they will leave the factory. A Standard T16t is supposed to be 197bhp but in reality most make around 180bhp from what i have seen. Thats alot of bhp to make up even taking into account the weight difference.

Nash

Saw your car in Ely on saturday was at train station dropping Steph off.

Nash

Going by the link that was put up about the lad who was in the process of doing a Tro / T16 conversion the idea might be great fun in practice but quarter mile times are never going to match that of its big heavier brother the Rover 200 due to traction issues. Think is the weight is going to be all...

Nash

Sorry i couldn't make it but lad buying teg wanted a look in the day light so couldn't win really. I will take the Saph down there when i am off over christmas, but after what G did to Rollers i not to sure :| I am really glad everyone had a good day, and totally gutted i missed it :( I still want m...

Nash

Got told the Teg used to spit flames when on track, by a scooby driver who was following.

Nash

1986 Vauxhall[spit] Nova 1.2 merit, piece logger bought to pass test in. 1994 Renault Clio 1.4RT - First proper car wish kept it for everyday runner. 1994 Rover 220 GSi Turbo - Bit of a dog tbh but good fun for a year 1998 Honda Integra Type R - Best car i have ever owned 1986 Ford Sierra RS Coswort...

Nash

Well i am waiting on the rest of the cash for the Teg, if i dont get it then won't be able to come.

If i do though i will be up for the pint challenge mate!

Nash

Lol i expect nothing went wrong. You dont see many/any T16t make the power they where supposed to from the factory when put on the rollers. Thing that makes me laugh is everyone is so happy with there cars on the road but after they have found out its "only" 190bhp or what ever get really ...

Nash

Well done mate

had a really good weekend and was grinning everytime you threw it into the first right hander. What most people don't realise is that Jase only did 3 runs on the handling course and his first run would still have got him the fwd win by over a second

.

Nash

Sounds like youve got some great pals there nash! Said to see your teggy go, looked very nice at the RR day! Just out of interest have you found a buyer for the teg yet, as my mates just taken out a loan to help purchase one! And yours looks to be a VERY nice example indeed! Cheers Adam Cheers mate...

Nash

Yeah Grants Right Getting an Essex Taxi. Saff Cosworth paid a little more for a clean car with good spec, as i would only end up spending more money getting it how i wanted anyway. Its in my token Nash colour[White] aswell only owned 1 other car that hasn't been white. Just looking forward to pickin...

Nash

I would just like to say a massive thanks to Neil F and Kes. Asked Neil if he would mind doing me a favour and look at a car i was interested in as i am away with work, as the car would have been sold by the time i got back. Kes also met Neil there without me even asking him and they both had a good...

Nash

Hatch for me! Said to Si first time i met a trax a good few years back i would own one and i did, not the best example i owned but i did enjoy it most of the time. I just prefered that fact that it looks a little more evil imo. I cant comment on the handling difference as i have never really driven ...

Nash

I was talking to the lads who ran the fester through out the day and he wasnt doing 12.1's he was getting 13.1's. I spoke to him when the head was off and said whats the best run now, he said a 12.9 but some one said we did an 11.8 I just personally feel AndyN was a little cheated, if i find it runs...

Nash

Great result getting second in handling Jase and sorry for bullying you into ripping seats out was being a weight freak all day

Nash

The two fastest runs came in the semi final and the final

Semi AndyR 12.43[sorry cant remember terminals]
AndyN 12.45

Final AndyR 12.3

Just like to thank Andy and Neil for letting me tag along yesterday was a really great day.

Nash

truth hurts and that's exactly why i don't frequent MG-R. Won't allow anything bad to be said, so everything makes him look good on that forum. Nash - I have a damn good idea who you wanted to build your engine. Lives about 20miles from me and is married to an ardent United supporter There are othe...
