G'Mornin ! :mrgreen:

Nice meeting up with a few last night.. its good how these last minute chin wags get pulled together ....couple of new faces too =D>

Graeme - struggling to keep up with my stock car !! ??? :mrgreen: I know its real potential ! ... when your running low boost, it blows off more gas so does sound at times making a whole lot of racket, but not really going anywhere. Glad to see it was only minor ! I think the hose splitting is a combination of the pressure and heat ... didn't last long though 8-[

Sicko - Your car is like brand new, needs roughing up a bit !

Heathy/steven - Alternator belt needs tightening ! :D I'll catch up with you soon with any luck ! O:)

Sarah - I'm going for the rally car look :D Its called lame a55 syndrome ... TBH ...its just the road I travel down makes it look like I'm entering a tractor pulling contest ! I'll let you wash it if you really want too ! :shock: :clown:

You think darren might put his hand in his pocket for one ?

Ahh I see, thats what they call it these days it is! I'll wash it for you if you let me pretend that it's mine :oops: or maybe not...

Yeah I reckon so :mrgreen: He's just on the look out for a decent one now I think.. he wanted one before but after last night he wants one even more I think!

The pipe has been on for a long time, and the compressor outlet is smaller than the diameter so it was forced on with 2 jubilees!! Probably why it went lol. Its so obvious how much quicker a CT turbo spools up, I dont make full boost till 4100rpm. Need to take my chicken outfit off and turn the boost up :mrgreen: Better get some stronger hoses first tho haha

I'm pretty rickety when it comes to sunday meets... as normally saturday nights are roled into sunday morning !! #-o

I can usually make it though ! :wink:

The link is in the events pages ... check there ... can get a small convoy going up from teesside ? then sarahs got no excuses ending up in scarborough ! :mrgreen:

See what the weathers like first.. I'm like a cat, hate getting wet and love the warmth !! :whistle:

Heathy - I'm worried I dont' find them :shock: !! Gimme a text later on the evening ... or if your bored... pop down snowdon road later after 7... I should be messing around with a turbo refitment ! :eye:
