    I'd love to borrow this thing just out of academic interest, but I'd need to find a suitable "strip" first

    If someone could rig it so it ran off its own power supply, I'd be happy to stick it in the race car and see what kind of lateral G's I can pull - far more fun than 0-60

    Well it would appear that the LET I bought was actually an XEV that had been converted, just not very well, compression on a LET should be 150/160 across the board, 1 had nigh on 200, 2 and 3 were 130ish and 4 was 0.....
    Needless to say I'll pass on the G_Tech for a while..

    Right, I've got the new radiator fitted. Just need a spot of dry weather to try it properly and I'll be ready to send it on.

    7.24

    Stupid rain started just as I was approaching the bit of road I reckon with more time to concentrate on the starting technique i can drive it under 7s. Still an improvement on the original time, please stick this into the first post

    LMAO it just arrived, addressed to "Darth Howard Canning" and I had NO IDEA what it was, I opened it strategically incase it was a letter bomb :'(


    Edit: Hmmm, the instructions don't say hit the brakes after 60 if you don't want to do quarter mile Lol, I'll try again tomorrow.
    I reckon my car's too slow for it to work well anyway!

    Is that a ":'(" because it wasn't a letter bomb?

    I thought it would be fun to try something different with the name

    Enjoy and drive safe! And I am not kidding either, you need to keep your concentration up as its a bit distracting.

    My mum signed for it and she started quizzing me!!

    Thanks for the swift delivery The dual carriageway was fairly empty today (and hopefully tomorrow where I attempt a PROPER 0-60-0 run so it doesn't think I was doing qtr-mile, which will prove I have the slowest car on Hexus), so it's fairly easy to cane it and concentrate, but looking over at it as I hit 60 it seems to be just over 11 secs


    Who's next when I'm done with it?
