Ask Ian. Last I heard, he was suppose to be talking to Chip from RB about it.

To be honest I can't see it happening before PV04.

when is pv 04?

Early June.

Suppose we might be able to fit it in, but it needs organising between the 2 sites.

A few of us from RB are going up to the pod on 23rd may, it would be fantastic to see a few NL cars there as well, any of you guys up for it on that date?

id be up for watching the RB lads eating the NL lads smoke, but i wont be able to enter in support as my engine is a bag of sh!t, (sounds nice though with its new 4' back box! :) ) and i now dont intend to tune it, ill just wait till november and drop in a 1.4 :D

CP

I'll come up on the 23rd of May Chip - bout time we another had a social :D

Nice one CP, be good to see you again mate, even if its only in my rear view mirror.

:roll: (ok so i blatantly know thats not going to happen but a bit of fighting talk alwas spices these things up, LOL)

Its mainly 2 litre boys going from roybacer, main grudge match on our site will be between:
Mongo - 2 litre 16v on 45s with head and cams
Johnny A - LET with evo intercooler
Chip - Standard 2 litre 16v with 50bhp of nitrous

I should think all 3 of us will probably be an interesting match against yourself.

As you say though, its a social thing more than anything, be nice to have lots of novas there showing the big boys in their scoobies etc how its done.

ill pop down to watch

Chip_RB
12-04-04, 12:02 PM
Ah i see how it is then, all the NL boys just sit about chatting and wont actually have the bottle to run up the track.

We can organise a knitting corner or something for you ladies so you wont get bored if you like????


Chip

12-04-04, 12:03 PM
Shall we bring out own needle LOL, mine wouldnt be worth running but id like to see some of the other 8)

Jim
12-04-04, 05:14 PM
Depends if my car gets done or not. If it isn't finished in time I'll probably come up anyway as it's only 45mins from my house.

True, i have noticed that most of your cars are running some pretty nasty smokey slow old engines, so it will be a bit of a pain for us in the queue eating your smoke the whole way along, but at least once we get onto the strip and are way out in front of you we wont have to see your smokey exhausts any more i guess.

:lol:

16-04-04, 04:32 PM
Chris, that would be a good idea mate. I would like to see the difference a diff and box would make to mine as our power figures are quite similar.

Sounds like its going to be a good day.

benji
16-04-04, 10:27 PM
i might come down now my car is back together. it's going to velos on tuesday for setting up, it will be interesting to see what difference a SRi head makes

Chip_RB
16-04-04, 11:20 PM
Fenix, no mate this is a valver ive thrown together from bits left over from other projects just for a laugh, total cost so far is 200 quid, although obviously i couldnt put another one together for that money as i am now running out of spare engines etc (althoguh still got a LET with no purpose left, but ill chuck that in the mini probably)

Chip

Tazzy
18-04-04, 06:50 PM
LOL, Chip, strong fighting talk, i think im gonna have to get the engine running smoothly after all (but i know someone on here has an even better 1.2)

but hopefully by then, ill have the 1.4 in!

if any of your lads Chip has a 1.2i, tell them ill give them a race (although ill prolly get smoked on!) lol :D

CP
18-04-04, 07:55 PM
Hey lads just had an idea. What say we have a whip round and offer the IssacHunt crew strong money to be our mates and come and play on our team? lolol :lol: :lol: or would that be cheating? :wink:

and have a smaller whipround, get a certain red turbo running (any way possible eg tinfoil head gasket) and rape it up the strip :D

Lol, i think you will be alright without needing to resort to that mate, for a start you will certainly win the 1.7 16v class as we only have one and its fairly standard, and you will win the 1.7 turbo class as we have none.

Chip

Tazzy
18-04-04, 11:30 PM
lol, we wanna win more than just the 1.7 class!

Jim
19-04-04, 09:04 AM
1.7 16v? Who owns the 1.7?

Jim

Snowface
19-04-04, 06:07 PM
1.7 td 8v or maybe an overbored 1600.

or maybe he's just made a tipo.
