Nah, mate - I think I\'ve chucked enough $\'s at cars over the last 15 years to be excused from grinder-ship :D

Was talking to Max about it the other week, he budgets some thing like £750-1000 all in for each trip....

£250 - Ferry and hotel
£100 - 12 laps(might do 24;))
£100 - Food and beer
£550 - Fuel

So a grand wont even go that far:rolleyes:

It\'s a colour from some motorbike:confused:  Pip did tell me, but I\'ve forgotten:o I\'ll ask him again next time I see him;)
Looks like one of the colour options on the Kawasaki ZZR1100(D1)

Sean

HI SEAN, SWEET RIDE, SHAME YOUR TO FAR AWAY FOR ME TO COME SEE IT IN THE FLESH, WELL METAL :rolleyes: :D

That car looks sweet mate, looks like it will do some damage at the ring, I was there last year on a Kaw ZX7r really really cool, are they not closing the ring soon???? Would be a real disaster if that happened.

Sean

They better not close it before I get there!!!!!!!!!

Should be good, I\'ve got a de-cat, powerFC, and looking for a boost controller. Pip says it\'ll be about 325 with the powerFC fitted, but I don\'t know how much more I could get safely by adding a Boost controller, anyone??

Col

Do you need a boost controller if you have a power FC, was talking to Ross at Dragons about this last week and he was recommending only having the power FC as it did everything anyway.
