Old Old skool Nova 1.6 Red top on TB's running up on the rollers

[CP]

Hello chaps,
Some of you may remember this car as a blast from the past in its various reincarnations. Long story short, its been residing in the back of my shed waiting for me to finish it. I finally sorted the fuel system and took it to Bedford Autodrome for a shakedown where I got shown the noise card twice. It has been having problems with a misfire in the mid range when I was short shifting hence the trip to the rollers. Although we weren't there to do a max power run it made around 190hp at a bit over 7000rpm; it redlines @9000rpm. Annoyingly the misfire wasn't in evidence so didn't really work out what the issue is

Looked a bit sketchy on the rollers, was it strapped down? Lol
it made 190 at 7k? That's epic power, why no full throttle action!?

Love the sound of that, purrs brilliantly at 5500+ �� hope you didn't let that GTR past easily at Bedford ;-)
