Great to see you tonight @Captain Colonial. I'm glad you got your car done too!

Here is the champion and his winnings!

Yeah, ChatGPT can do a phenomenal job, knowing what Wallace, Gromit and a Westfield are and doing a great rendition of them even down to the reflections in the bonnet. But then it totally fails to 'understand' that a windscreen surround would have glass in it or a steering wheel needs to be able to turn. D

Look where his steering wheel is! 🤣🤣🤣

Good turnout tonight and great to see you all again, including @Martyn Vann - Warwickshire AO’s car looking excellent, we’re all very pleased to have it back in our midst. The area’s Rock / Paper / Scissors Champion was also decided and a prize awarded. The Wench finally back on the road for the first time in 8 months and performing well. 👍

Ok so just like last week I’m going to Oulton Park on Saturday leaving Oldham 9 - 9.30am arriving 10 - 10.30. Anyone want to join me? Either for the drive or at the track.

We should be

Maybe😉

Arh, now I see my old Duratec Westie is again looking for a new owner. Take a look at Autotrader. She has had some owners since you bought her in 2020 Hope alls well with you Gareth Andy

Someone borrowed my Westfield:

It is possible to edit posts. I make so many typos and edit often 😂

500kgs for any Westie is super lightweight! I'm trying to get mine down to 625 ish. Full cage and a turbo doesn't help but makes it so much fun! And I'm my case easier to get in and out of with iffy shoulders

Busa damn predictive txt

Build a 7 business with that engine

They really are light them exo's with a bike engine I never realized does make my 500 kg westie a bit of a fatty maybe I will get ride of the 5kg batt which I don't need and the westie reverse box or maybe I'll just stop eating burgers.

Those Exo Busa cars are mental! I remember seeing a supercharged one at Stoneleigh, I dread to think how quick that was.

My exo was only 462kgs. My Westie is still quicker though as has 100+ more bhp and massively more torque at 270lbsft. It's also a LOT more civilized but doesn't sound or rev the same obviously. 12,500rpm screaming through the gears with the Flatshifter is something I'll remember forever! 😂😂😂

Yeah, it was a very special car that Asbo. The original one made and I've never driven any kit that rides bumps so well. The handling was amazing and the sequential shift with a Flatshifter was just stupendous on the road. If I were a young man still I'd have kept it for ever.

I sold a 430kg Exo Busa powered BEC a couple years ago. The busa car I remember being insane. But I really need to do a track day at croft in the 7 to see which one I'm truly quicker in. The 7 is way more practical with a proper reverse and I feel much better taking the kids in the 7. I sold the exo as I just didn't feel comfortable taking the kids in it. I do miss the busa car, and I've another engine which I'm hoping maybe one day I'll build another one.

Ha ha I used it when I changed your black windscreen for a heated polished alloy one!

I do believe they are considerably heavier than a 7 the blade engine puts out similar bhp to the gsxr at 180 but my car weighs just 500 kg so can imagine it may be quicker than an exo not that it really matters fast is fast in anything.
