I think you'll find I paid the full £150 you were asking for it, thus it was mine

These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder.

I had a look through these 3 articles today (the uni library has a massive journal archive) and must say, I found it very interesting, though doubt I'll be able to do to much to my car as I wan't to keep it sleeperish.

Its funny how the things such as drilling holes in the scuttle which seem obvious to let air out actually have the reverse effect.

I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.

I know it is in Racecar Engineering, but I thought it might have been an extract from a research journal or paper published elsewhere. I doubt my library database contains Racecar Engineering. Also, If my library does contain Racecar Engineering, I don't fancy trawling though all the editions of it to find the right article. So asking for the author is valid. Car to tell me?

As it is very wrong to scan and post the articles, and it is very difficult to find a copy of the magazine in Denmark, i´m open to suggestions to how get hold of it.
Anyone with a good idea??

I have given all the mags to my bro to read, be nice to him and he might scan and email them. I'd be happy to if I had them.

Who'd have thought it! my university library had every racecar engineering back to 2001!

some very interesting things... not that i'm going to apply and of the things involved, i want to keep my car original, being a mk1 i think it's for the best.

shame they couldn't have tested something similar to the zeemax roof mounted spoiler, would have very much liked to see the results.

the new radiator flow arrangement was interesting indeed.
overall worth a read.

No expense spent

Hey guys for those of you who can get hold of Racecar Engineering. The feb edition of MiniWorld has an article on aero stuff written by Simon McBeath...... dunno if its as in-depth as the Racecar Engineering version but useful none the less.

"So wat we gonna do tonight Brain?"
"Same thing we do evernight Pinky!"
"Try to take over the world!"
