Clive, do you know how many UK guys is running bridge port with Adaptronic?

Can you do so asking for me, just curious what kind of vacuum/MAP reading they have in 1300-2000 rpm idle area?

Sorry can't  answer that one, but if you don't have solid vacuum and the needles jumping about its probably a side seal :(.
All the best Clive

But some better news: My Blueberry has first rallycross event in next weekend. But not driven by me, my friend loaned it.

He has rented his own car for this season, to his friend. That is identical to mine. And that car and driver are currently in 2nd place in championship.

Last friday, at sauna, with some beers, he got idea to race one event at this year. He put rental wanted to one facebook group. I saw that in saturday, and at that point I had some pints. So, we desided that he will pic up my car sunday, and repair it...

Actually, Blueberrys engine did had a problem, piston rings fel off So, safe to say, that those engines cant handle water, if you dive in to massive pool

Im really keen to see how my car performs. This weekends race is at track, that Im sure that it fits to my car. Driver has lots of experience from this car, and that track. So Im expecting good, even maybe podium place. But thats not important to me, I just want to see my car perform, and feedback from it. Fingers crossed!

Oookey...

So, my friend Ville messaged a week ago in friday, that he want to race at Vilppula, rallycross national series finale event. So, he loaned my Blueberry for that event. He came to get car at sunday. Thru monday and tuesday they rebuilded engine. Piston rings where in little pieces

Hes own car, exatly similar to mines, is on rent to one young drive Jussi, that is in currently on 2nd place at champion standings.

Last friday we went to Vilppula and in freepractise car showed really good pace.
Saturday was race day, and I told Ville that, I want to see what my car can do, so full send it

First heat, he made "tactical driving error", so that young guy could get maximum points from that heat.

Second heat, another Ford broke steering, so he drifter out, pushing Ville out too. In that outing, oil pan took a hit, and started to leak abit. However, when he got back in the track, Blueberry was absolutely flying, even tho conditions where wet. Ville said that suspension setup is really good, no understeer atall.

Third heat, well, just bad luck. That Beemer that hit my car, it has 5 links and control arms on its back wheel, and they all broke. So hard that hit was If Ville wouldnt tryed to avoid that collision, and didnt go around left side, that collision would have been even badder, cause they where so many cars involved. But, this time, bad luck just hit, and that Beemer just spinned around and hitted

However, Im not mad or pissed off. This Vilppula track is one that I have wanted to race, cause I knew my car would be fast there. I knew that Ville would get everything out off my car, and show its true pace. This was my cars first outing at rallycross event, and even tho it did ended badly, Im not upset. Now I know what my car can do.


Plus, I have allready got 3 offers to buy that car
