Olly H gets my vote :thumb:

Lee
27-11-08, 07:35 PM
Mr H knows donny as well as i know combe so he has to get my vote by default.

But if Mr Danker had a proper engine. I would be backing him hands down purely for the aeronip advantage :) But backing smallblocks give me a rash :(

Im afraid i am yet to see your pace Jonlem mate, hopefully get on track together in the summer :)

Jonlem
27-11-08, 07:39 PM
No problem Lee, next summer my aim is to be using the Escort so it will be non Vauxhall from there on.

Last time I drove Donny in the dry I was doing 1.27/1.28 in a stock xe nova on a539's

Tigra will never touch either of them too on the day unless they break down

I voted for the one with better power-weight actually :p (I think?)correct, if his unladened is really 640kg, and his power is really 193bhp, that makes me the underdog. w00t :D

Jim
27-11-08, 10:04 PM
Naturally I've voted for a fellow small blocker (No pressure Oli, but if you fail, you're small block club membership will be withdrawn*).

Olly H, are you going to try and oversteer into the opposite corner from last time so you have matching battle scars on the other side of the car? teeheehee

*Not really Oli ;)

Lee
27-11-08, 10:05 PM
correct, if his unladened is really 640kg, and his power is really 193bhp, that makes me the underdog. w00t :D
But he has less torque.

In other words, he may have a powerful arm, but his spanner is tiny lol

Did you mean oversteer? or understeer? lol

It now has a engine and will be finished by sunday, it still needs the geometry setting amongst a few other things but it will go ok, were not out to break any records but when a let comes up expect to see a fast..er tigra

DhDev - It would of been rude not to vote for myself lol Gav should be along soon then we'll have 4 votes !

I voted for Olly, purely because unless I'm mistaken he has been behind the wheel at other trackdays recently.

Oli D's car hasnt seen too much use recently? So I reckon Hewitt might be a bit sharper & happy to thrash hsi car a bit harder.

Smallblock FTW though.......

Just been out in the Tigra, everything seems to be ok, just got the geometry to do tomorrow, change the alternator and remove or modify the steering rack brace as it fouls on the gear linkage.

Its some transformation to what it was when we collected it !

Ready to go ! started on the car again at 9 this morning, tracking and camber now sorted along with all the other smaller issues :)

The chip we ordered about a month ago turned up this morning too, I went to fit to to find the ecu was already chipped LOL, £100 engine and it came with a chipped ecu and a set of non reprofiled piper cams :) bargain !
I'm not totally convinced about the chip though but we'll have to see how the first session goes or I'll stick the old one back in it.

See you all there, bring a coat its going to be cold !

I would like to change my vote to Jonboy & Gav considering they're running 150bhp jets of Nitrous for the straights, which'll easily make up their quick lap

Jonlem
13-12-08, 06:23 PM
Just fell off my chair LOL

Yes ofcourse we have Olly, with a 1.4 fuel pump and no money to buy gas I can guarantee it has no more than normalish xe power, infact we don't even know if it has that as we haven't been out on the road with it.

Don't worry you'll still be the fastest....... until we fit the let ;)

LOL, big block ftw as expected.

Thanks for the kind votes, I suspect a few of you thought we had something up our sleeves but we genuinelly didn't, getting the car done in time and it handling a whole days worth of abuse (with a few problems) was plenty good enough for us.

There was one moment when we overtook the Corsa in the dry and I thought we had found some extra power, I later found out it was only a small block lol

We took on most of the non vauxhalls but I'm happy to admit we were possibly the slowest (yet most stylish) Vauxhall there
