Paul Aspden Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Just a thumbs up for Troy at Northampton Motorsport, top bloke, managed to get the best from my car which covered more miles on his dyno yesterday than it has in competition to date! Hopefully Troy has managed to clean the floor of the dyno, & i promise to tighten the sump bolts before the next visit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ACW Posted February 19, 2014 Share Posted February 19, 2014 is it all sorted now Paul. So come on how many horses did you find ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Aspden Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 No its not steel mate, and its down on power compared to David Hussey, John Loudon & Chris Hardman, but better than I expected. You'll all get to see it this year, assuming there are no disasters before Croft! Will you be playing this year Ade? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Aspden Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 Ooohhhh yes - might even join you little engine lot for a few events. Can't wait, as if there isn't enough competition Anyway,you should be running with the big dogs in H, I'm sure Barry will help tame the beast but what other bolts did paul forget to torque up time will tell That will be the bellhousing bolts..... looking forward to an incident free season of sprinting, just a bit of prep work needed. Note to self, if you use very stiff engine mounts, prepare for stuff to shake loose! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
