Power to weight ratio must be very handy now :twisted:

Nathan, Its a proper car weiging scales to sort corner weighting. R-motion have one for setting up their race cars.

Paid them some cash to see how fat she was.

Power to weight is ok, It will be better

:lol:

Need the blowers to keep the screen clear....demisted screen and temp control is staying.......for the mo ;)

Hoping for 1100KG with full tank fuel.

Should be about 1060KG on empty tank.

Things to do still:
Remove Sunroof mechanism,
Remove passenger seat and belt
Remove ABS system
Reduce wiring loom to required systems
Polycarb windows (Rear only)

Still lots to do and no money or time to do it :lol:

Dino would you mind giving me a list of your engine work? I searched Taffy's thread on PUK but couldnt come up with a definative list and couldnt find it in this thread. You have Type-S pistons and Skunk2 Stage 2 Pro Cams yeah? Anything else to raise compression? The reason is my trying to "estimate" bhp of my build.
