i must be bored at work....Print this off and use it as bog paper.

Have been developing my own turbo charged A series mini for 8 years or so. Feel personally i have acheived great success with it.MOT 977l has been featured in Minimag back in 97,and has "graced" the pages of Cars and Car Conversions,Miniworld,VW motoring?? and more recently the front cover of Retro Car.

This vehical is used in anger throughout the country at track days and drag events, it also did two seasons hillclimbing with Torbay motor club in the up to 2000cc class, although never getting a win under my belt the humble Mini showed many modern cars a clean pair of heels.

My claim to fame is that, to my knowledge, i have the fastest 1/4 mile time for a turbo charged mini..13.65 MPH @ 102MPH, although my fastest terminal speed at the end of the 1/4 was 104.95.These times equate to a 0-60 time of circa 4.5 seconds.

For those of you that don't know i am not shy to be passing on help, imformation and knowledge to others.
I hope those of you that read this don't think i am being too self ritious by "blowing my own trumpet" as it is fact not bull....

For those of you that do know me they'll agree i'm an extrovert/showoff!!

Happy Bleed valve twiddling!
