  1. I think Kev946 would disagree with that - remember the BMW thread? Thats right. They closed ranks on him, banned him and didn't give him his money back. He did deserve it though
  2. Nope I bet you wore brown/black boxers just in case! When the instructor drove my car i did require a change of boxers
  3. Nope not even your head Nah, its a bit fluffy at the mo
  4. I didn't think your posts were offensive in the slightest but I did disagree with your interpretation of Clarkson's comment. On the above - rubbish. Thats ok Its going to look different from inside the of goldfish bowl looking out.
  5. Not if i do it you wont. Put your money where your mouth is then
  6. Treat yourself early?
  7. Hooray
  8. Nope
  9. A plane needs to be moving forward to take off. On that conveyor belt it would be static Only if the power was coming from the wheels. Its the jet engines that are moving the plane forward, not the wheels. (granted, the wheels would be spinning seriously quickly) If you put a plane on sheet ice with the brakes hard on and turned the jets on it would still move forwards even though the wheels were stationary. No idea if it could get off the ground but it would move forwards because of the jet power giving you air flow and lift. The conveyor belt would just make the wheels turn backwards whilst the plane was being jet powered down the runway conveyor belt thing. My vote's a yes . But if you bring into account that the engines pushing the plane forward on the conveyor belt then the wheels would be going round faster. If the wheels go round faster the conveyor belt would speed up neutralising the forward motion of the plane hence rendering the plane static. Therefore: NO LIFT
  10. If you read the pistonheads thread the first car to do it was a Hyabusa Westfield There are Nobles, NSX's, Elises and VX220's in my pics and already on the leaderboard, how fast do want them

  12. What boost were you running and could you translate that into BHP About 11psi at the time. Must be in the region of 450bhp, with torque probably about 450 lb/ft. Another thing that makes me think about the Aston figures is this. My friend who has a 200sx running 300bhp had a proper go against one. He said that the Aston was just managing to pull on him, albeit very slowly. To put it in comparison, he said that the Aston was that little bit quicker than his car, in the same way that my old Vortech Zed used to be quicker than his. With my car running 11psi, the Aston was totally, and I mean totally murdered. I would have gone upto full boost, but was struggling for traction badly as it was. Do you have a Turbo Boost button like knight rider
  13. Bump No way it could take off
  14. What other cars would you expect to be there?
  15. They are at home so i cant. PLus they are ex girlfriends so for meeeeeeee to seeeeeeeeee But i may send some of this girl who really peed me off.

Thats your task for the day. Sod the presentation
  16. Explain. What conundrum are you thinking of?
  17. Nah, not for me mate. Well maybe not just yet
  18. Go for it mate. Graham was as good as gold with me even though I've never been anywhere near a track in my life. Driving around a track with loads of other cars to crash into never appealed to me. The fact that this offered timed laps, on a famous bit of track, with no other cars to hit and one-to-one tuition made this a winner for me

    I know that that cold air is preferable but not sure how it relates to the K&N kit as I thought it was just the same sort of thing as a JWT Pics anyone?

  21. My time is getting quicker It was 1:39.37 not 1:39.20, he obviously forgot to take into account how fast the colour was and then had to knock a bit off to allow for it

    Simple question only requires a simple answer
  23. Er I have to defend myself here mate. I asked a genuine question about what goes on at a Dyno Day as I've never done one! Other people then starting posting about drinking tea, bovril and smoking, not me
