Andrew Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Looks like fun, so much so that would like o know you NSCC boys opinion on THIS very tempted to buy it and stick a 1600 Zetec up front Looks good Slip. I have a trailer, when do you want it picking up? Seriously, if it were me, I'd be tempted to buy it, race it as it is in in stock hatch spec for a few races this year. Then think about looking for more power. If you're not happy with it, it's probably easier to sell on as a stockhatch ready car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilot Pete Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Mick Starkey in the blue and yellow XR2 that always blasts past me on the start said he'll probably be selling up at the end of the year. It already has the 1600 zetec, it just needs a little breathing on! I agree with the cap though, definitly dont worry about more power in your 1st year. I'm still knocking lumps off my laptimes every time I go back to croft so I'm obviously still not driving it quick enough! My times have gone: 1.42 1.41.067 1.40.90 1.40.50 1.40.20 Still after that elusive 1.39. But I know I can get it now after reviewing the 1.40.20. Some footage from yesterday: I forgot to change to 3rd gear for hawthorne, DOH! DOH! DOH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilot Pete Posted July 26, 2009 Share Posted July 26, 2009 Any freebies for today Pilot I need an excuse not to do house work There might well be! The vid is fairly high quality so just pause it for a minute or so while it streams, then push play, should work then. I dont have a clue what kind of money Mick would be after, but its a well proven car I would say. Also depends if he changes his mind at the end of the season! I mean its only a fraction slower than mine in a straight line. I'm pretty sure some cams would turn it into a bit of an animal! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
