Ahhh. Looks like some of you have herd of my Nova. Whats so girly about the diff. Pritty sure my car will corner quicker! lol
I'm just in the middle of a re-build at the moment so hopefully it will be run-in in time!!!
Nice to hear from you Sid long time no speak... When you going to come to Bracknell again?
Pritty sure my car will corner quicker! lol
that will be well handy at pod ;)
hahaha very good! I was just trying to state that I used it more for cornering and not for going in a straight line. As this is where I feel that it makes the biggest difference...

I ran 14.2 last year @ 98mph. But alot has changed since.

Same here. See you there! :wink:
Mongo, what Nova do you have? Is it a black standard looking SR?
Jim
Yes mate. The one with the really loud exhaust! You seen it up pod?
No, not seen it at the pod. Did you attend the Milton Keynes Nova meeting at the end of last year?
Jim
Yes I did mate, it was only just finnished, looks even more scrappy now. lol

:lol: :lol: Guess i hit a sore sport there mongo! LOL
Mentioned the diff because we where the lads in the mk1 astra you 'wasted' at the pod a few months ago. Just makes me laugh that everyone on mig who praises how much grip they had at the pod has a diff :lol:
Funny i did a 14.8 on the same day with the car running in limp mode!
Will be intresting to see what time my car would do if i had a diff.
Looking forward to the rb/novaload day, you see i will get at 16 second quarter now!
I remember your car mongo. I was one of the organisers of the meeting.
It didn't sound too healthy when you were there, but I may be wrong :|
Look forward to seeing yours (and many other cars) down the strip.

not sure if i'll be able to make it as the car probably wont be running by then. :cry: Will have to wait for PV i guess :evil:

Sorry mate I dont think I was one of the people who said that my car wasted you. My mate C20LETMINI (Rich) posted something along those lines, and I followed up by saying that by the 60ft boards he was leading by a second. Half way up the throttle cable broke, which resorted in a 26sec quarter.
Never mind all fun and games eh?

Yeah, I had one of two problems with the ignition timing, but only below 3k, and it went well over that, but when we tuned it out, it was a hell of a lot smoothe but now does'nt feel quite so good around the top end :(

What have you been doing to yours?

I see. Always the way. You fix one problem, only to be encountered by another, lol.
Jim
I have seen your car Mongo, in its current state at Rich's! I thought awww what a shame, look at that Nova! (with cracked wind screen etc!)
Then realised what was (or wasnt) under the bonnet!!
MASSIVE sleeper!! :lol:
Dont know which one was worse though!?! At least it seems to have cured any other miss-fires, but just dose'nt feel the same :(
At least its a little more predictable now, before I would be cornering hard with the diff gripping the the power would drop off a bit, which ment I would loose grip, not good.

When did you see it.
Will Foy?
Ah. when you picked up the cav... Did you get it home alright in the end???
Yeah it does look like that for a reason, so no to55ers will try and race me, and make the porshe owners look silly with a 1.4 SR :lol:
Had a race with a carrera 4, pulled from him in first and second, missed a gear change, and the he absoloutly wasted me. Think he was shocked though! :lol:

:lol: Was only pulling your leg mate. Though ed, the owner of the mk1 was pretty rumbled by some of the comments made, fair enough really.
I look forward to seeing how the cars perform on the day.
