Some pic's of the monster!

Post by Mikejc »

Well I thought it high time that I posted up my first ever pic's of my car given that i've never tried before lol :)

Below are a few pics of the car that I have owned for over 3years now. Up until last year I personally had managed to get the car up to 335 bhp @ the hubs @1.3bar, running the spec that can still be viewed within my profile. Since then I have had a full race spec engine built by the chaps over at Roque Motorsport which should be running a very realistic 500bhp @ the hubs!

The car has been built without compromise and with a focus on track and fast road driving in mind. Although it's expected to run comfortable 11 second 1/4 miles once the suspension has been worked out.

The car although absolutely mint hasn't been set up to be a show pony. The graphix currently on the car are due to be replaced with a a design that's being worked on soon.

I hope you enjoy ;)

Looking good mate. I think the first time I ever saw your car it was a bit dirty. Last time I saw it it was gleaming. I asked someone if you'd had a respray it was that good :lol:

Shame all the stickers draw attention away from that ;)

Not thought of going for the rogue sticker like Patrick has on his car?

Thanks for the comments guys :)

We felt that the design of the graphix should be something a little different from what is shown on the race cars in order to state that this is in fact Rogues flag ship car! A fully worked design will be in place the next time you see the car :)

As for my car being dirty, rarely! You must have caught it on a bad hair day!? lol ;)

The engine was recently removed in order to fit the new turbo and manifold. You could could try and half inch it but I must warn you I am prepared to travel to the ends of the earth in order to get it back lol ;)

The cam cover has been repainted now T and is awaiting to be matched to the new outer graphix :)

As for me being short.......hardly at 6.4"! Bucket seats sit a lot lower. But thing may get tight when the cage is put it #-o

Different from the J-Tuner day........ in just about every way lol ;)

335bhp on standard internals........ indeed it was and for the best part of 2 yrs! In this spec it managed a 12.3 1/4 mile and a 4.2 0-60 :shock: I shudder to think what the new engine will yield once the suspension is worked out !?

Thanks for all the comments guys it's nice to know you approve :D

I'll have to get around to updating my profile at some point. To be honest their is simply too much to remember off the top of my head so i'll have to get the boys at Rogue to send over a full run down lol

I have always liked clean looking cars myself but having said that I think with a good design like the one planned i'll like it in any case to be honest :) Not only that you have to remember that sponsors will always want their name on the car in order to let everyone know who created the rocket lol ;) In all honesty i'm more than happy to fly the Rogue colours, their a great bunch of people with a genuine love of what they do and this shows in their work. The monster they have built me really is something =D>
