After the TNT boys showed us the way, here is a small update on the local South east membership.
James5- Finally got his F7P turbo going & sorted most of the niggles, he's up to 14 psi boost & going strong, next thing is to fit an adj reg as the car leans out top end.
Check out this thread (http://www.rtoc.org/boards/showthread.php?t=22378) for updates (be quick as it prob won't be long before he pulls it out to put some other engine in, prob the R26 lump as there can't be many more turbo lumps he can try :wasntme: ~)
Marky Mark- He's got a few new parts to fit to his tungy & will be sticking it on the rollers on this event http://www.rtoc.org/boards/showthread.php?p=227302#post227302
He's also made some good progress on his red 5 & I'm hoping to see this up & running in the next month with the monster volvo build.

philr5t- Finally got his car done & made it to pod, I know he upping the boost more & more each day, I think we need to get this car on the rollers soon.
He's also getting married at the end of the month so I know we all wish him & his missus all the best :agree:

JRP- His usual happy self :laugh: & has just bought himself a nice Audi to boot around in while he rebuilds his minty mint 5.

Dave H- After selling his lovely 5 I here he's smoking around in a Mini mayfair :scratch: Not much room for dogging in that Dave :D
Fidos got a Raider- Well he hasn't anymore so needs to change his name :cooter:
He's about to pick up a nice clio hybrid I hear so we'll see what progress we get on that :agree:
turbo ted- Robbie has finished his F7P turbo build, adaptronic, Scoffs mapping & that huge blower have seen some good results with over 300bhp @ 18 psi with 1/4 mile times of low 11's already. I know he's on the hunt for larger injectors already as his current ones are maxed, expect to see 10's from this car over the next few months :agree:
Myself- Well after getting totally peed off with the Raider & my suopposedly 'winter project' I've given in on it. I've had a turbo lump in it, running for a few seconds beforea couple of the lifters jacked & clashed wit hthe pistons, my fault for starting the car without it all together :sad2: Now it has an N/A F7P in it & it will be for sale..... As I'm doing a R19 16v turbo out of my parts I collected from the Raider build.

phase i 16v turbo- AKA Mike the parts man :agree: Mike is his usual cheerful, helpful self, possibly the best place to go if you need Renault parts in the South East :agree:
Has numerous cars, I think he has a phase 2 in every colour & a few phase 1's as well. This is on top of other classic fords as well :agree:
fish head- Tony- a top bloke, keeps his cards to his chest with his own projects ;) but allways on hand to help members :agree:
DaveMayGTT - Dave has been working on his car & improving the spec over the last few months, I know he's bought James's old VNT & he's also got my paddle clutch so expect to see some impressive figures later this year.
