I was saying to ob on the phon the other day, I remember first seeing the purple corsa at PV05 when the 13 flat it ran was groundbreaking.
In some respects the 4 years seems like a long time ago, in another way, in that four years weve gone from 13 flat to 11s for you guys and mid tens for fwd vauxhalls. Worlds apart! |

I do know that chap, to be fair though if they hadn't had a run of bad luck with bits breaking I have no doubt that they;d be looking at very low 11's by now - if not better!
And specky has spent less than you think - contrary to popular belief he isn't made of money!

the head lifting has been mentioned but not a problem for us as yet all our problems come from ignition,pushing components too far and learning by it and our own stupidity at trying to get more and more gas in
this year we hope all will come good so we can kick your arse specky
other than us know one knows as much about our car than specky,we talk to him more than i talk to my wife
