Great work Adam.

How much have you done to lighten the car?

That must be the next thing to do to drop the times for not much cash?

You could go:

- Carbon bonnet, front wings, boot

- lexan windows on all passenger doors (except driver?), remove electric window mechanisms.

- remove some interior? (I know you are keeping it as a road car too)

I am sure you could save a 100kgs easy - maybe more, without changing the look of the car at all.

Have another look on fullboost they have there own seaction of records still dont think my car is fast enough to make it on there

WELL DONE DUDE! That MPH will see you into the 60's. any ideas what the problem was? and what the hell have you guys done to get the increase? I thought you said the new cooler was only for looks????  :msm:

Not sure what the problem is its really strage like a rev limiter at any rpm everytime I change gears its never happened before it will be something little and stupid I bet but it was slowing the car down big time

The new cooler and piping may have giving me a little bit more :)
