Just read through this from start to finish and i'm lost for words. The attention to detail is fantastic!
In all honesty i think its better done than a new car thats just came off the production line!

I have only cleaned the car underneath 3 times in 3,000miles but i do the arches everytime I wash it! I did it properly and then that makes it easier to keep clean! The TV feature was taken after about 2,500 miles! Cheers I built it to use not to just look at! I also like the new "fresh" look of it!

First off two videos My friend recored from combe
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoWjzQtmNbM
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EhZqvhpOVhg
on Saturday the 2nd Oct, me and a few friends went to a RWYB at shakespeare raceway! First time I have ever done 1/4 mile and I really enjoyed it was a great day.
I ran the car as I would everday, had 3/4 tank of fuel, normal pressures etc etc
My personal best was 12.9 @ 111mph
Which i was more than happy with as that was my first run of the day, but they seemed to get worse ah well i can work from this
Other times were:
13.2 @ 110mph
13.3 @ 110mph
13.1 @ 110mph
I seem to be consistent with the terminal speeds, i just need to get better at the launches
Few of the cars that went:
Astra VXR with stage 2 - Mid 14's
Mk3 Golf with 1.8 20v t - Mid 14's
Evo 9 FQ 400 - 12.6
200sx - 360 - engine failure
First run of the day vs the Evo 9
12.9 @ 111mph and 12.6 @ 107mph for the Evo, Damn 4wd...

Why cant mine sound like that What is it about the exhaust that gives it that unique sound Dale? Don't think I've heard another let that sounds the same. Awesome runs btw! Rapid springs to mind

Lol, its the tail pipe as its a jetex backbox designed for a corsa 1.4, the inlet is 2.25" but the outlet is really small! Thats one the reasons why I haven't turned the boost up Cheers
