Cool. I so hope i can get it off!! You still not found an engine? I no there was a few on ebay when I looked the other day. Might go this route with the CRX :D

Looking in to cams tho etc and have an idea in mind... just need to get cash in pot to knock it together... Be nice to make the last sat night spec of the year or jap final... :)Quote:

Maybe we could have a little side by side if I go :D
Rob,
Arr thought you was on the look out cause you said you should be down the breakers lol
Yes ok dave, would love to :cool: It's been together for a while, there just doesn't seem to have been a worthwhile event on when I've been free.
Yeah I no what you mean. I was soooo gutted when my car didn't make it to the RTOC day. I even had a ticket...... :cry:
I went USC but to be honest wish I hadn't botherd, sand on the start line, what's that all about?????? I no why they do it, but the amount they charge it's bull*****
I really wanted to go this weekend (Nat day) but working all weekend :cry:
USC :cry::p The sand isn't sand though, aparantly! It's not suposed to affect traction, but I think it probably does. I wouldn't stage if I saw all that **** on the line :D
i got told the sand that's not sand was there because a corsa drop it's box.
Right defo going :D :D :D
See whoever is going there. O and will be there early tomorrow morning (leaving tonight:D) so if you want to set up next to us feel free :agree:
Well just got back from pod. managed a PB of 11.53 @ 120 mph
But then broke on the next run :cry:
Still was a great weekend weather was perfect and track was good.
Well done Dave, good going... i take it you havent changed much since last event on the tune?

Finally got a 1.85 60 ft which I was happy with so the traction bars seem like they are helping :agree:
Did you change your alignment at all? or just fit the bars...

Rob you spoken to Scoff? what happend to him? I see his car smoke at the end of the strip but didn't see him after that......
Ye he text me that morning, i couldnt make the day down, nothing to big of an issue that he cant sort for next event tho... :) still a shame tho, would have been good see a 10 from that 5...
Hi Dave
good to meet you on the day, don't think I'd spoken to you before then ? (apologies if I had :D )
I killed the rings on one pot and started to melt the corner off the piston. Log showed it lean off in top gear, I think I just ran out of fuel plain and simple, maybe only a few litres in the tank, thinking it may have just surged to the back and ended up with air in the rail as I emptied the swirl pot. No big issue, bore is fine.
good i'm glad it was nothing to serious, I did have a walk over but couldn't see you or your car so thought you must of left.
yeah was good to have a chat think we spoke once before but I can't be sure either :ashamed::ashamed:
mine let go on the next run :cry: but hey that's racing for you lol. Not stripped it down yet but it's either head gasket or liner either way it will just get built stronger lol. :D
11.53 :cool: awesome time Dave, nice one. Shame it went pop, hope it's just the gasket.
Thanks stu :agree:
