what is this car?

im in love with it!!


I love this car - was talking to the old chap who owns it. It started life as a 50's Berkley MG microcar, the roof is from a midget but reshaped, lots of custom work on it. Running a short stroke A-Series, 900 odd CC, turbo, nitrous, methanol injection - very nice setup. He's not run it for 12 months though, so when he came to run the methanol, the pump had seized, and the nitrous escaped from the regulator when he turned it on! As a result he was running neither so had to take it fairly easy today.

What a great weekend! Nice to meet some of the chaps! Thanks to Carl for paying me on today lol!

Nice to meet garyos and paulh from ireland, nearly set the pissing tent on fire when a mate went arse over tit on the table we have the stove on!

My Smoke machine put in a slightly respectable time of 15.01 I did a datalog and im running 6.2psi of boost. Time to pull the poorly turbo off and get the damn thing sorted. Gt20 anyone?

I pop my photos up tomorra!

Roll on MITP!!

unfortunately thats as good as it gets, that pic is a full res crop from the original which was 3872x2592

i saw the flames flash up once so i just held down the shutter button and they came up again and luckily i caught em. trouble is the car was the other end of the track and my lens wouldn't zoom that far.

here a smaller size of the original pic


guessing its something to do with nitrous going wrong?

blown the welds on the intake, lol *happy*

Car looked great Mike - shame about the smoke like you say. But 15.01 at 6.2PSi boost is non too shoddy!

A big thanks to everyone that looked after me on sunday morning

Commiserations to Tom, and well done to Jim. Well done to Evo and Paul Wiggington too.

I dont know quite where that time came from, I think i just struck lucky and got everything together right, and may be a bit of tail wind.
Damn busy though, I only managed 3 runs all day

Awesome weekend, great to meet lots of you. A big thanks to shane as well, hope you get the head gasket sorted and don't find anything nasty mate.

Denis, 11.9 was incredible, and the times for class d this year were very close between the 2. After missing what time the don ran on it final competetive run I asked tom what his time was and the funniest answer I've heard in a long time "not bloody fast enough"

Well done though nic, a cracking time and don't forget to fill up at pod lol

Cheers guys, roll on mitp
