Welcome back Mike. I too remember that very day turbo's broke into the 13's. It was a momentous occasion then and, while still impressive, as bit more of the norm now

I remember the day coz I fixed his fuelling problem and he then went and beat me... He still had the in tank filter on the internal feed pipe which we fixed with a long screwdriver and a hammer.

Mike Cantelo, wasn't it your mini that was the subject of the turboing article in KYMA no 1? It was indeed Joe and a tatty one it was but I was working for Mini World at the time and it was available. Class D Winner 1997 - 1998 - 2003

Yup, been a while. Really enjoying the Mini and itching to start playing with it again. Things have moved on since we were building quick cars and there seems to be far more choice in manifolds and turbos and have you seen the 1/4 mile times now!!!

Sorry Phil, I met so many people back then and I have never been the greatest with names; may well recognise you though.
On 8th Nov, 2014 Turbo Phil said:
Hi Mike You probably won't remember me, but I met you at the Mini 40 celebrations in 1999 as I was camping right opposite you. Mine had been Turbo'd for a year and it was great chatting with you. If I remember rightly you were working for Miniworld at the time ? I also met you at a couple of the showdowns way back ... Anyway nice to see you back. Phil. Class D Winner 1997 - 1998 - 2003
