Excellent - so you are not at Flame and Thunder then?[] [:-]
You would get the full 1/4 mile!!!
What size shot are you giving it and how many foggers do you have for that V8 bestie?

 

[Geoff_Fields]

Good luck Brett.
An interview with the Beeb. What program is that for, Top Gear?[]

 

[Brett928S2]

Hi Geoff

Just for local South Today I think....although there is talk of a documentary...OLD racers vs YOUNG street car racers...

You can guess which I qualify for lol

All the best Brett

Hi

No this is a lot closer than the Pod

At the moment I am running a 250 shot but use a new system (Wizards of Nos) so no foggers...

This 1/8 th is for testing only, so dont need the full 1/4...yet

The new 1000 hp system will have 16 extra injectors (cannot show you piccies yet as its a prototype race system and cannot until given permission by Wizards)

All the best Brett

Good luck Brett, hope it all works to plan.

Hi All

Just got back...

No testing done lol...

I was roped in to supervise the "Car handling" area for 5 hours....

The when I was going to run late afternoon...a REALLY bright biker decides it would be fun to do the whole standing 1/8 as a wheelie............

But he didnt make it.....at over 100 mph he dropped the bike...HARD....

He survived.... taken to hospital by ambulance...

Just to show how bright he was......when he did it he was wearing JEANS

Brain of Britain he wasnt....

Anyway, had a fun day, met some old friends and relaxed.....

Oh and the guy from the BBC didnt turn up or even ring me to say why...lol....

All the best Brett

Ouch, I have a good friend who dropped his bike taking a video back @ 50mph. It was just a short trip so he had jeans on....
2 years after he was just able to walk 'normally' again. So hope your fella will be ok.

Car sounds great, hope it pans out []

I dropped my bike the other Sunday (Nov 21st). Luckily I was wearing leathers and body armour but even so I'm walking around with the aid of crutches, weird thing is I was walking around on them before![] ( That 'll teach me to go to a Porsche Club drive and lunch not in a Porsche )

Cheers,

Hi

Serves you right ..next time take the Porsche

All the best Brett

 

[Fred Hindle]

Brett,
I look stupid driving a Porsche in motorcycle leathers.
Took me two weeks before I could risk getting into one of the Porsches, the getting in wouldn't have been a problem, it was going to be the getting out. It was like a doddery old man getting in and out of his car - but you'll know all about that at your age.[] Could have done with some of your 'laughing gas'.

Cheers,

 

[Brett928S2]

Hi Fred

My age...lol...I am a mere 55

Thats almost a quarter of my life gone now....

I intend to live until around 200 and as only the good die young..........

All the best Brett

 

[Fred Hindle]

Brett,
Only two years older than me, you must have had a hard paper round.[]
Quarter of your life gone, nobody can say that you're not optimistic.

I think your 928 has got a far better chance of reaching 200 than you have but I'm no doctor.

Cheers,
