Adams so slow he’s never on full throttle, so it’ll be fine I reckon!

I'd hazard a guess at it being close, Tom's car isn't too dissimilar to mine though hence the interest... :d

bl**** love Donington...

Cant argue with that! :yes:

We need to find a suitable day for when the "broken duratec" club get back on their feet. ;)

Managed to fit the Vbox from my other car so I’ll have something to compare against coming from a 370hp/1300kg M3.

I best pass noise regs :ph34r:

yes would be good to have a donington group session.... once we get rebuilt.. started today.. first new part I went to fit - clutch cylinder from Burton.. non genuine and had different threads for hydraulic fittings!!! :bangshead:     I guess there could be quite a bit of that.. same with sorting right clutch plate!

But have the Cadwell date on my horizon!!

Noise? Not an issue.

Engine deciding it wanted to break free quicker than Freddie Mercury…issue.

Oh dear! Did you get much track time before the detonation?

Posted

8 laps, was done by 10:30am :(

Posted

Oh man that sucks, sorry to see such a mess :(

Any idea of the cause yet, low oil pressure perhaps?

Posted

I had no oil pressure warnings on the dash, I checked temps and pressure before going out and they were fine.

Need to get the engine out which should be fun, all new to me and I was expecting a nice smooth entry in to the world of Westfield’s/BEC :bangshead:
