......and thanks to yzf 250 for the breather box. Well handy.


No worries Chris. Hope it comes in useful. :y :y

Sorry for not introducing myself to everyone but I'm a quiet socially inadequate person. :-[ :-[

I was the one with the black 3.2 elite estate and it was my first meet so forgive my ignorance as it was all new to me. I think Chrisgixer was the only one who knew who I was.
It was a good afternoon with a friendly bunch of guys all willing to help out. Had to shoot off early as we had plans for the evening but was glad I went along to see you all. :y :y

Best Regards
Alan
Dont worry yz, it can be a bit daunting first time at one of these meets. Hopefully see you at the next one. Very nice and tidy car you have there. :y

I tried as hard as I could to keep up in my 3.0l auto, and failed utterly miserably.  My 3.0l auto (on petrol) probably just has the legs on a std 3.2 auto, as proved Saturday evening, much to Tunnie's parents surprise when 3 Omegas went tearing past them as they were tottling along the road ::)

Hold up, I didn't know we where "cheating on petrol" to win the race to the curry house? Plus I had a "fading" Mr Wood in the way.

Er, did I say race? Er no could'nt have been a race, only The Boy knew the way.

At one point - around the area where Mrs chrisgixer likes to go sideways - I did have about a mile on petrol. That was when a brakeless Mr Wood was probably getting in your way ;D

Whatever, demand a re count.

Seriously though, would be interesting to run some side by side tests one day. Although I'm not playing with you on the brakes....or in the corners probably.  :(

When you played with me, on that downhill bit before we turned left, I was flat on the floor on gas.

At high revs, floored, I reckon I am hitting limits of multivalve, although the LPG ECU isn't switching back. Feels more willing on petrol under those conditions.

Not much difference in the kit then. Nothing in it up the hill prior to the downhill bit where I had to allow for your braking and knowing the way, I was expecting 2nd exit, not first.
