It's either a 7 or 8 port OS built motor, quick car.

My wastegate is set to 4psi, at full boost they were running 32psi. I fixed my low boosting problems! .6mm welding tip is now jammed in the boost line, works a treat! :)

I take it this is using it like a jet to lower the flow of boost signal to the wastegate?

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

awesome video Jim, it looked fast from the side of the track, good to see it looked even faster from inside!

Endaf can certainly pedal...

Too many projects!

and I bet the 8 port didn't have a 8:1 CR. My mate Ollie built the 8 port engine, I'll find out more details on it.

Next video is now online.

This is with Stu wright in the car, lower boost around 20psi, less entertaining but some quick laps.

upload took longer than expected, my internet connection kept dropping.

I'm quite a few seconds a lap slower than endaf, although I am on lower boost, but he carries more speed into all the corners.

I'm also uploading a new video of the first one which overlays speed too like this one

so this is my driving, still pretty quick.

Brilliant vids jim, keeping me entertained.

I must admit there seams to be a different role reversal to driving style, ie ( i would rag my own mini like endaf does yours but i would kind of expect if i let a friend out in it he would drive a bit more sensible like you were)

Saying that i think endaf has had a massive role in the development of the car if im right ??

And you no what, an a series built well will produce the power and still be reliable.

I have not on the couple I have watched, but you would had needed a rear view camera for that session as I was,, In the great panto fashion "BEHIND YOU" *happy*. Until Avon rise where I was not as confident as you hitting the brake rather early then I made a mistake followed by another one a couple of laps later :$ . At which point I had dropped back a bit. Was still hitting 119mph before my cautious braking point for avon rise *smiley* gettign the track bug back.
