    The car is quick yes but mike was a good driver which helped alot. The car has 235 ish BHP but there was a few other cars with that power at the time but werent running the same times.

    Not looking in the right places



    Is a shame what Mike ended up becoming, because I had a lot of time for him when he was first starting out loving the PMT stylee etc! Ah well!

    not sticking them on your car and blowing him away with your higher traps was your downfall

    here's a tip, when you're trying to be quicker than someone else only discuss the things you know will make him slower - I've been experimenting with adding weight behind the front bumper to increase traction

    The shell was rotten to the core, he'd sprayed over all the rust. Mike forged the cheque, that Chris fella who owned the car, used to pay a bill on it. Insufficient evidence was produced and he got let off.

    There were quite a few other problems with the engine, it blew up on the dyno or something like that, I can't remember all the details.

    ... Just a thought, maybe he left masking tape in the sump again
