SO true! lol, and it has been emotional!

What I can't believe is I broke it on the 3rd of feb, and this is it JUST back together with less than 24 hours until the hillclimb out here! which, I will probably just go and break it again in!, no, thats bad talk, I did not mean that :roll:

Hopefully I will do well, and prove yet again how good these cars are :D

Awesome... I wonder how 2.4 compares to an S4 gearbox? What is Mihnea's FATS time?

Glad to hear it is back on the road and running well!

I did! But you had CliveH's lad with you and he wanted to sit in the front - so i thought i'd be a gent and let the lad have the blast! Must be getting kind in my old age ... :shock: :lol:

Are you back in the UK at the moment Mihnea?

Good to see it running well! That FMIC is clearly doing its job. I bet you run 1.7bar peak taper to 1.5bar.

My car broke the tab of the uppipes to TBB so I hope you have yours welded to TBB. It teared the camsprocket cover mountings too : (

Same as that ... both my pipes from the i/c's to the tbb have broken away from their mounts on the cam cover ... they're cable-tied up now :(

Cheers guys!

It really does feel quick!!! :D :D :D

I came 2nd in the first hill climb, a 600+ scoobie beat me! unfortuantly I hit a bump in the road and messed up my braking ... never mind!!! Got tomorrow and Sat to go!

Here are some videos from tonight,(Sorry about the quaility, but nice GPS speedo to view!) only two runs, both up Bray Hill in Douglas, which is a 30 limit, how can I ever be expected to go back to 30?!?!

Got some nice comments from spectators telling me it was the fastest at the top of the hill, and it just looked awesome front the racing start :D

Videos here

PS. Its an RS4 box I have in it ...http://www.rs4.im/cars/RS4/Videos/hillclimb/2007/
